A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Candice, I have lived locally in Roanoke my whole life. I'm 34 years old with a 16 year old daughter. I started out as a nanny with a private family 8 years ago. I was working with two boys one in elementary and on in middle school. I would watch both of them for years. The boys no longer need a nanny (age) so im looking to help a new family. I have worked as a DSP (direct support professional) for intellectually disabled adults. Ensuring the safety, quality of life, helping develop routines with my clients eatting, bathing, medicine. Weekly day support outings to stores, restaurant, and doctor apartments. It was a very fulfilling job however I did have to leave to work at Sheetz as it was more money and needed to provide for my family. I am currently a kitchen manager at Sheetz and I'm off on Sunday and Mondays and would love the opportunity to not only work with your family, an help with any needs, but I would also be providing for my family with the extra money.

More About Me

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

Private family for years with 2 boys.
-not children however I also worked with a group home for intellectually disabled adults for years

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Anything a child can come up with as long as it's safe im willing to do. Football, basketball, baseball, skating, running, imagination games, educational games, video games, books, movies, picnics honestly this list could go on forever

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being aware, things happen in a moments notice so being distracted is a recipe for disaster. Remembering how you would want yourself or your loved ones to be treated and act accordingly.

My experience with special needs children...

The private family that I worked for both boys have special needs, as well as the group home I'm very good a redirecting behaviors.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Watching my private families boys grow to old to need me... it's sad.. very sad but they have been good to me for years and that warms my heart. They tell me I am more than a nanny now I'm family.
