A little bit about me

My name is Phillis Boone. My very 1st job was at a day care center caring for infants. I was a natural. I also knew a parents silent prayers that their children get the same care and attention they do. I remained there for 3 years. I have on and off since taking care of my elders until their passing.
During that time I raised my 3 children, loving every moment all graduated with honors. I will treat your child with the same care as my own. and I know they need to feel safe and heard. My children's father remarried, had 3 children. I quickly became the babysitting depot because his wife needed to know she wouldn't have to worry. Dialogue from parents is imperative. Builds trust, & I appreciate your clear instruction. I want you to feel no worries. A baby is your fragile new family addition. I don't mind doing light house work when your baby naps.
I truly hope that my sincerity is felt through my words. The younger years really shape who they will become. Thank you for your time.

More About Me

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

First job was at a day care and that was the best job i habe ever had besides being a mom to the 3 teenagers i have.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Depends on their age. But they live to play at any age. Too much TV is toxic. They need to learn autonomy and learning in reality, not in a screen. Your child needs to know how special their time is too, and how much joy they are to just have time with it. No child should be left unattended. They are curious and at any moment something could be dangerous. That's why any one caring for any age child should have a calm alertness. Also, no yelling. They are tiny and you are big. They need to know they feel safe coming to you for any reason. With your baby, there are several interactive tummy time play mats. I honestly can go crazy in the baby shopping aisles. I'm sure since my children were babies who knows? I had some pretty great choices....all over the place...lol

The most important part about being a nanny...

I want too make myself proud, babies feeling safe and happy, Mom and Dad secure in peace of mind. I know how much you love them. If you were anything like me, I never felt peace. I could never relax, because it wasn't me. Who could possibly do better than me. I hated it. I don't ever want a parent to feel that way. All the stress I felt in an already stressful day waiting tables myself. But I didn't have a nanny, It was daycare. I knew the staff was unable to give the proper care to the importance of what they are supposed to be doing. It was my feelings of not enough teachers to child ratio. No feeling important. Each child, didnt look happy.Not being heard, it bothered me. I luckily quit my job, grabbed my kids and we all took care of Nanny together. Best days together. She needed that love with her great grand babies. Win wins for us all. Too often and unfortunately all caregivers and teachers are over worked, underpaid and unappreciated. Its a shame.

My experience with special needs children...

Every child has special needs. One needs to color, one needs a snack..another needs your attattention please. Another just an extra step. I need parents expectations of me. That's how I see it. We must hope that children not fear that others have differences, otherwise they miss out on critical thinking, open-mindedness and abilities to navigate through life with curiosity of cultures and the world. It gives them so much more trust in their abilities and for adventure. How they carry themselves in this world, how they succeed in this world, how they understand this world, how they socialize, how they grow in this world. They need to have fun and love life. (because they do!!) That's an important message to teach your children. Otherwise they may remain in a bubble. This lesson I taught to my kids. Its made them very independent and unafraid and each unique. It opened up their minds and they trust in themselves, they remain very close to each other. Each VERY different..lol

The most important part about being a nanny...

Hands down, roughe toddlers who escaped their teacher, playing a balloon popping game. It was so hilarious. I came out to watch. Me and everyone was cracking up. She couldn't do it, she was out of breath. I had to radio the owner to come back and help her. I'll never forget that panicked red face and lack of breath. They are busy bees let me tell you. Very active, hated nap time. I sometimes would go during beak. Wow. Pat on the back hopping swishing always a last one standing. It took like 15 20 min felt more like an hour! Lol. A teacher would come tag me because I was good at it and it drove her crazy!...lol
