A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Madi and I am 22 years old. I am from Negaunee, Michigan and I graduated with a degree in Special Education (K-12) and an endorsement in Elementary Education PK-3 from MSU. I have always loved working with children of all ages. I have a lot of experience with children. Growing up, my parents worked a lot so I have had a lot of responsibility for my two younger siblings who are now 8 and 9 years old. My mom worked night shift and my dad worked long hours, so I was the main babysitter, especially through COVID. I am the oldest of all my cousins, so I tend to babysit a lot for family members as well. I am up-to-date with all my vaccines, have had a TB test, and I am first aid, CPR, and AED certified. I am also fingerprinted for my childcare license. I have worked as a part-time nanny in East Lansing and Grand Ledge for the past four years, but unfortunately the family moved. I am looking forward to talking :) Message me for more information and availability!!

More About Me

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

My parents have always put responsibility on my for my younger siblings, which is where I learned how to care for them. from a young age. I have a big family with lots of little cousins, so I find myself babysitting newborns, as well as multiple children. (I have 47 second cousins on one side) I love kids of all ages!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I’m up for any adventure! Indoor, outdoor, learning, exploring, or just trying something new! Since I am looking to be an Elementary teacher, I do like to play a lot of learning games with kids as well and practice my social-emotional work.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny in my opinion is making the family feel comfortable with knowing their child is safe. It is important to meet the parents needs and be aware that you are working for them. Your job is to satisfy the parents for what they want for their child, and it is your job to keep the child safe and interact with them. You are there for the child and the child’s needs throughout the day.

My experience with special needs children...

I was part of a Peer Coaching Program for four years in high school, which was a club and an elective class offered. I fell in love with this career path after seeing so many smiles. I loved being a part of the class and focusing on the successes we made each and every day. I visted schools to provide instruction and observe the students, which was embedded in my college courses. I had a full internship year where I developed lessons in all core subject areas, differentiating my level of support and instruction while still adhering to the curriculum. I kept data-driven records that monitored student progress. I developed behavior supports for targeted students that improved performance and diminished outbursts and interruptions in EI setting. I worked with parapros, TAs, and behavior specialists. I have attended many FBA, PBSP, and IEP meetings. I documented behavior data collection, parent communication logs, and implemented instruction based on that extensive data collection.
