our family for the past year. During this time, she has proven to be a very loving caregiver, and I wholeheartedly recommend her for any future opportunities.

"Cindy cared for our son from the time he was three months until he was 2.5 years. During that time she was always an incredibly loving caregiver for him. She spent so much time teaching him and playing with him, taking him to the parks and on walks. Cindy was great about complying with our requests for specific feeding requirements as he was a very small baby and needed special nutritional attention. She was exceptionally reliable and always on time. Cindy will be a wonderful caregiver for your little ones!"

More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I cared for one of my grandsons every weekend from infancy to preschool age while mom had to work. I also worked as a Nanny full-time for 2 separate families here in Thurston co.. I started when they were both only 6 weeks old and continued until they were 3 years old.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Cooking, reading, coloring, anything outdoors. I'm pretty crafty at making fun happen with little to no material items, maybe just a sheet or couch pillows!
The most important part about being a nanny...
Being able to create a long lasting bond with the child, and also create trust and build a solid working relationship with parents so they can be worry free while the child is in my care.
My experience with special needs children...
My last family I worked for had an autistic 2 year old boy who is also not auditory, and an 8 week old little girl. Everyday was especially challenging, and I've learned a lot about the signs and behaviors regarding autism and how to engage differently with the child in order for him or her to trust and continue to grow. I look at this as a positive learning experience I can take with me into the future.
The most important part about being a nanny...
I love introducing kids to music. One of my favorite Nanny moments happened when I was taking care of a 9 month old little girl . She was voicing her frustration in the only way she knew how, by throwing a tantrum. I turned my phone on and brought up my Spotify account and played "Jewels lullabies". Instantly she was silenced and was in awe of her beautiful voice. She continued listening until she fell asleep while rocking her. Music effects us in such profound ways. It can be so healing.
