A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Brooklyn and I am 25 years old. I have been working with children for about 11 years now. I graduated from Caledonia High School and am currently a nanny in the state of Michigan but looking to move to Texas. I have been with my current family for 2.5 years now. I tend to 4 boy all under the age of 3 right now. My youngest is 6 months and oldest will be 3 next month. I have experience in working with children who are autistic or disabled, and also with sick children such as those who require medicine around the clock, may have g tubes, things of that nature. I am blessed to love what I do which makes my "job" even better. Many don't understand that to the children I am a part of their everyday life and they expect many things from me. This is my purpose, and I will always handle that with pride, honored to play such an important role in my littles lives. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out! Thank you.

More About Me

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

I have been a nanny for 10+ years. Starting at a young age I have gained experience with children who require medical attention. This included learning about G-tubes, learning to take them out, insert new ones, administering shots, and giving up to 12 medications 2 times daily.
I have experience with children on the spectrum, Down syndrome, and social emotional as well as working with non verbal children.
I have worked on plenty of occasions with children in groups of 4+. This past year I opened my own daycare and hired team members and did summer care. My most recent families consisted of 2 families making me a shared nanny.
The families I work for consist of pastors, members of the community that work for the city, and other pretty big families.
I have also been a teacher at a child development center.
I take pride in what I do and know it is my gift, I love what I do and plan to continually build with my families. I have references available as well as my resume.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I am big on Montessori style teaching- So we create almost all of the learning activities they do. I am use to going on field trips, gymnastics, swimming, jump houses, museums, and the zoo.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being there, being able to create that secure, loving relationship with the children that they depend and look forward to.

My experience with special needs children...

10+ Years with children with special needs and children that require medical attention

The most important part about being a nanny...
