A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Mary, although I go by Christelle! :)

I am currently 31 years old, and I had recently ended a 6-year term with a family I have cared for since the pandemic started. I recently relocated to Alexandria, VA, and looking for a part-time to full-time, long term position.

I would describe myself as friendly, patient, and playful. I enjoy nature, the outdoors, and making art!

In addition to play, I would do some light-cleaning, chores, errands, pick-up and drop-offs, as well as meal prep for the kids.

At this time, I have a degree in Human Services, and I plan to pursue a Bachelors in Education as a part-time in the future. (Still saving...)

I drive, and have my own car. I am pretty flexible with scheduling, and always open to working more.

I'm primarily using care.com and wanted to give this a try. My references and reviews are all on care(.com) but could definitely send a screenshot, if needed. The families I worked with are open to connect if extra reassurance is needed.

More About Me

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

I worked part-time, caring for an infant (4 weeks) for a family in McLean, VA.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Making art! Drawing, painting, and playing outside were things I use to do a lot. I also did improvs, and that was surely an interesting experience!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Teaching kids to care, to be patient, and love nature. I grew up with educators and these were things I was taught growing up.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The silly moments, especially the random sing-alongs, and dance moments. One of the kids I use to care for loves writing, and he would include me in a few of his stories while I illustrated for him.
