More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I have extensive hands-on caregiving experience with children and adults of different ages and needs. I helped raise my cousin from infancy through early childhood and have experience caring for children with special needs, including seizure awareness, medication assistance, and maintaining safe routines. I am CNA certified and have worked in care settings supporting daily living needs. Growing up in a large family, I’m comfortable managing multiple age groups, and I bring patience, attentiveness, and compassion to every caregiving role.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I enjoy doing a wide variety of activities with children, including arts and crafts, reading together, playing games, helping with homework, outdoor play, and creative activities that encourage learning and imagination. I also enjoy supporting daily routines like meals, naps, and bedtime to help children feel comfortable and secure. I’m flexible and happy to adapt activities to each child’s age, interests, and energy level.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is providing a safe, nurturing, and dependable environment where children feel secure, respected, and supported. Building trust with both the child and the family, following routines consistently, and being attentive to each child’s individual needs are essential. A great nanny creates stability while encouraging growth, learning, and confidence every day.
My experience with special needs children...
I have three years of hands-on experience caring for a child with special needs, specifically epilepsy and Asperger’s. During this time, I have supported daily routines, monitored safety, assisted with care needs as directed, and remained calm and attentive during medical situations. This long-term experience has strengthened my patience, consistency, and ability to create a structured, supportive environment where a child feels safe, understood, and comfortable.
