A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Michelle, a 26-year-old student from the Sunny South Africa, and I have a deep passion for working with children. With 10 years of experience (eight of which are paid professional experience), I have had the joy of nurturing and caring for babies, special-needs children, toddlers, kids, and teenagers. Each day spent with them has been a unique adventure filled with laughter, learning, and love. Currently, I am excitedly embarking on a new journey as I go back to school in pursuit of a career as a niccu nurse. With a US driver's license in hand and many years experience in emergency first aid, I'm ready to continue spreading warmth and making a positive impact wherever I go!

Warm wishes,
Michelle

More About Me

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

My journey with childcare began at the age of 13 when I started volunteering at a local nursery school. Throughout high school, I was actively involved with the St John’s Ambulance, dedicating my weekends to volunteering. At 17, I started babysitting for my first family, caring for a girl from ages 10 to 14. From 21 to 23, I expanded my horizons as an au pair nurturing two girls in Stamford from ages 9 & 11 until they were 11 & 13. My weekends were filled with babysitting neighbourhood children, from babies to young kids, including a special needs child diagnosed with ADHD at age 6. Upon moving to the West Coast, I have worked with multiple families, creating strong bonds, especially with babies and young children, some with special needs. Currently, I cherish my time working a few hours a week with a sweet baby boy who was 9 months old when I began caring for him. This rich tapestry of experiences has honed my skills and deepened my passion for nurturing children

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

- Baking
- Playing outdoors
- Board games
- Experiments
- Arts & crafts
- Tummy time
- Sensory play
- Water play
- Reading
- Music and singing

The most important part about being a nanny...

Having a great connection with the kids. Children learn and respond well when they feel that they trust and understand you.

My experience with special needs children...

For the past three years, I have had the privilege of working with autistic children. Each child I work with has unique needs and is at a different point on the spectrum, so I am constantly learning new ways to engage and support them. This experience has taught me the importance of being patient, compassionate, kind, and understanding. I’ve found that maintaining a routine is essential for building trust, and from there, meaningful connections can flourish.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I loved goofing off with my host kids during covid. We got so bored in the house we found new ways to entertain ourselves each day. I love looking back on those memories today

In past lives, I have been a nanny, a lawyer, a tutor for elementary school kids with learning challenges, and a paraeducator in SFUSD. I love being with children, teaching and learning.
