A little bit about me

I have always had a passion for working with children. This is why I have been a mothers helper, babysitter, nanny, and a camp counselor. I have also cared for numerous families that had children who ranged from newborns to teenagers. I wanted to further my education in this field by attending Indiana University and majoring in Human Development and Family Studies with minors in Psychology and Sociology. I am CPR, First Aid, and Lifeguard certified. I am able to think on my feet and come up with proactive solutions when things take an unexpected turn, which happens a lot when working with children. I am patient and understanding which is necessary for a nanny position. I am easygoing and flexible, yet can be firm when the need arises. It is important to be able to communicate with the parents to inform them about everything as well as create a mutual trust, which I excel in. I have a strong work ethic and I'm driven person who wants to ensure that both the parents needs and wishes are met and also ensuring that each child's needs are met. Lastly, I have a calm and nurturing demeanor which allows children to feel comfortable around me and trust me.
