More About Me

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

I was previously a Sunday School teacher where I taught a large range of children every week planning activities and such! I have also taken on many babysitting jobs, including all age ranges of children! I am, of course, very familiar with feeding, bathing, and changing children’s diapers, as well as helping with homework or anything else!

Along with younger children, I love interacting with older ones and I have also volunteered and worked with children with special needs!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love helping with any sorts of homework, and doing arts and crafts! I am totally down to paint, color, and play, whether it’s a sport or running around! I love puzzles, art, baking, music, and especially reading or any other interactive activities!

In all honesty, there isn’t much that I do not enjoy doing with any child if it is something they like to do! I am super open-minded and will take interest in any hobbies and activities!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Of course having a love for children I feel is a given, but also always having the child’s best interest in mind as safety and empathy are very important! I know nanny’s play such a large role in children’s lives when their parents aren’t there and that’s why it’s so important to be attentive, understanding, and loving!

I also always want to make sure I am following what the parents goals are for their children! I never strive to overstep any boundaries put in place!

My experience with special needs children...

I spent a week of my time volunteering at a camp for children/adults with special needs to work with a 15-year-old girl across the country a few summers ago. My experiences there are something I keep with me forever as it allowed me to be apart of providing experiences that some children with special needs might not get in their day-to-day lives because of the worlds lack of accommodations.

I have also worked with many children, usually above 8, in my Sunday school class! While I have not worked extensively with infant children that are special needs, I am still very comfortable in doing so and will meet any needs required to do so!

The most important part about being a nanny...

I have a younger cousin, who I spent every moment I could with from the day she was born. The day her younger sister was arriving, she was about 3 at the time, I was with her and her older brother while my aunt was in the hospital, and I remember vividly reading her a book in a rocking chair. She told me one day she was going to read to her little sister just like I did to her because she was going to love her sister as much as I loved her. It was one of the sweetest things I’ll always remember! She now has three little sisters, and they are four of my most favorite people and I love spending time with them whenever I get the chance!
