My experience with special needs children...
I have experience working with children with special needs, including those with ADHD and autism. I support their routines with patience, clear communication, and a focus on creating a safe, encouraging environment where they can thrive.
The most important part about being a nanny...
One of my kids had recently discovered his love for drawing. It was such a joy for me to see him enjoy creating things and see the pride he had in himself for his work. I loved encouraging and fostering his new skill with kind and supportive words. He ended up drawing me a goodbye picture when I last saw him.
