A little bit about me

I am a single mom to two amazing teenagers, a 17-year old daughter, and a 14-year old son. They are my heart! I miss the days of caring for them when they were younger.
I am in between careers, and I would love to help a family care for their most important member(s)!
I am open to the way you want your child cared for, as I know we all have our own ways that we prefer to raise our children. I love to play, read, sing, and rock little ones. I am open to taking them to library story hours and programs like kindermusik and music for aardvarks! I believe it is important to talk to young children, because that is how they learn to talk!
I whole-heartedly believe that children learn the most by watching what we do and by engaging in active play. I am a very loving, nurturing, and patient person, and I would love to care for your precious little one!

More About Me

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

I have done volunteer work with children in the community through church, including art projects, Easter egg hunts, and Christmas festivities. I have also volunteered to help special needs children learn to ride horses.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Obviously, the activities depend on the age of the child, but indoor activities I enjoy doing include: singing, playing child-safe instruments, reading, board games, and art projects.
Outdoor activities I enjoy include going for walks, going to the park, playing sports in the backyard (basketball, football, baseball, soccer), and sidewalk chalk.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Paying attention to the children, and always coming from a place of love. Consistency is important with children, and effective communication with parents is also essential.

My experience with special needs children...

I worked at Le Bonheur Children's Hospital as a pharmacist for 13 years, interacting with and caring for numerous special needs children over the years.
I also volunteered to help special needs children learn to ride horses.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I was a nanny for a family when I was in high school. One of my favorite nanny moments was watching the oldest daughter graduate from High School!
I also love when children of any age smile or are happy to see me.
