A little bit about me

I'm a single mom of 7 kids ages 27 - 13. 🥰 Im 44 years old and love children, and they always seem to live me too. ❤️ Maybe because im not afraid to act silly just make them laugh. Who knows 🤷‍♀️🤣 I've been a caregiver and child care worker for almost my whole life. I cook, I clean, and I don't mind getting a little messy to have fun.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I've worked at child care centers and I'm a child care worker at my church as well. I've also worked for the YMCA in the after-school program with school-age children as a team leader/teacher. I also watch multiple children for my friends as well as being a temporary guardian for a few children that were in need.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I'm down to do pretty much anything that the kids enjoy doing I love finger painting board games video games as well as playing outside and being active any sports they enjoy I don't mind getting my butt out there and running with them I enjoy hikes going for walks going to the beach making sand castles and letting the kids turn me into a mermaid if they'd like. Like I've already mentioned I'm down to do pretty much whatever the children enjoy doing

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny to me is making sure I protect the children the same way their parents would. Making sure they are in a safe and healthy environment is top priority.

My experience with special needs children...

I have special needs children in my family so I've been around special needs pretty much my whole life. I've dealt with autism as well as children with behavioral issues and down syndrome down and fetal alcohol syndrome as well.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I can't say I actually have a favorite Nanny moment because there are so many that just make me feel so good. It's at the end of the day when the parent gets home, and the children are happy and they can't wait to see me again that makes everything worth it for me. It tells me I've done something right and I've done a good job when the kids love my company and want me to come back.
