More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I was working at Sacred Heart Plus in highschool, where I facilitated and interacted with children ages 3-14. I worked through the summer as well, assisting with field trips and meal times. I feel very comfortable feeding, toileting, and changing young children or those with special needs.
I attended valley high school where I also partook in peer partner classes, where we were able to do activities with students who had special needs and needed extra help. I find it very rewarding to be able to teach or guide those who may need a little bit of extra instruction.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Going to the pool or park, or playing outside in general. I really enjoy doing crafts and art projects if that is something they take interest in. I also enjoy coloring, puzzles, or we can even play with toys all day if that’s their passion.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Keeping the kids safe. It is important for me to recognize individuals are trusting me with the most important things in their lives. I always take into account the parents potential thoughts or opinions before making a decision, and will always ask if I am not sure.
My experience with special needs children...
I have cared for mostly school-aged children with special needs, but would definitely be comfortable with someone younger or older. I have looked after a few family friends’ children with special needs and have been able to handle feeding, changing (if needed), and doing activities just the same.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Just getting to see them grow and learn new things, sometimes things they can show off to mom and dad when they get home.
