A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Hannah, and I am 21 years old. I have lived in the Cedar Valley my whole life. I started working at a Daycare in 2016 and have gained much experience in the seven years I have worked with children. It is my passion to aid and nurture children, to help them become functioning and successful adults. I have some knowledge in psychology, for I studied at Loras College in 2018. I plan on starting school again, in order to become a kindergarten teacher someday. My hobbies include yoga, meditation, reading, and nature walks with my animals. I am patient, understanding, and insightful. I love meeting new people and daily conversation are important to me!

More About Me

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

Cedar Valley Catholic Schools / Child caregiver
I have spent many hours supervising and monitoring the safety of children. This being my first job, my coworkers aided me in learning curriculums that allowed children to learn about themselves and the world around them.

A to Z Learning Center and Daycare / Child caregiver
Being a more low income facility, I learned the importance of truly taking care of each child and doing my best to meet all their needs. I spent time cleaning them and making them feel loved. Here, I gained the most experience in the shortest amount of time.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Arts/crafts, different depending on the week/month!
Walks/exercise. Teaching children about the strength and taking care of their own bodies is important!
Baking! (Can get messy, but kids are just that!)
Reading!

The most important part about being a nanny...

I find the most important quality about being a nanny is the ability to be personable. It is vital in a child's development to ask questions and encourage honesty and truth. To be vulnerable and humble!

The most important part about being a nanny...

When I was leaving for school, my employer arranged all the children from the center to sing "You are my Sunshine", as I was leaving. My mother used to sing this song to me, so it really hit home!
