A little bit about me

My name is Melissa P. and I love working in childcare environments! Children have such inquisitive, creative, sweet souls. I just received my BS in English with a focus on creative writing. This creativity and imagination serve me well working with children. I have experience with just about every age group between babysitting jobs, daycare experience, volunteer roles, and working at therapeutic boarding schools. I am caring, kind, responsible, compassionate, flexible, and hardworking. In my free time, I enjoy writing poetry, cooking, spending time with my husband and baby, and playing with our dog.

More About Me

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

I have experience in A wide variety of childcare settings. During my teenage years, I would babysit for neighbors and extended family. I spent approximately six months working at a daycare, primarily with the infants and toddlers. I did have a nanny job for a time, but it wasn’t for long, as my husband got a job overseas and I resigned in order to prepare for our move. I now have a three month old son, so I have had constant childcare experience for that time. However, my son can be cared for by my husband or mother-in-law while I work.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Reading, playing games, coloring, doing crafts, playing outside, swimming (if a pool is available), helping with homework, etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Helping children grow and learn while staying healthy and safe.

My experience with special needs children...

I've worked with adults with special needs and teens with mental health disorders & learning disabilities. While I haven't worked with special needs children per se, I would be happy to work for a family with a special angel like this! I believe special needs individuals are unique souls placed on earth to teach us about kindness, compassion, and acceptance.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I have two favorite moments while working at the daycare. The first was I had a sweet, three-year-old boy build a tower out of legos. When he showed it to me, he said, "I made this for you, Miss Melissa." It was adorable! The second favorite moment was when we had pajama day at work. I wore panda slippers with my PJs, and the kids swarmed my feet to poke the pandas. They got so giddy over something so simple, and I love that. Afterwards I read them a book in the classroom that was about pandas.

Katy K. - Seeking Work in Rexburg

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Rexburg, ID: Katy K.

Hi my name is Katy,
I have a great deal of experience with children since my three little sisters were much younger than me and my mother was often sick. I took care of them growing up and we still have a great relationship. I am good at giving kids consistent cheerful routines so they feel secure and rarely misbehave. I also give kids lots of creative projects and games. I've nearly completed my bachelors in music so i can get kids singing and playing instruments too so they learn fun skills to show their mom when she comes home. My mother is Italian so I cook well and will thoroughly clean anything you like.
