More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I worked in Texas as a team lead caring for mentally disabled adults, I have cared for children in India, in Italy as well as the United States. I have also been a C.N.A. I have much experience caring for infants all the way up to the elderly. And then of course my own 10 lovely children and grandchildren. I can provide references upon request.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I’m very much into crafts and can teach children some of these things, I enjoy reading to them as well as story telling. I can also help out with school work or teach them board games/card games that can help them learn, such as flash cards.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a care giver for anyone, to me is that they are completely safe, all of theyre mental, physical and emotional needs are met and they receive understanding and compassion. It’s very rewarding for me when I know I’ve not only helped but see their happiness as well. I like to stay positive and bring smiles. This to me is always very rewarding.
My experience with special needs children...
I have experience caring for mentally disabled adults as well as caring for physically disabled children, three of which were my own children. My three handicapped children were born with physical disabilities that required constant care and supervision.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite nanny moment was when I had volunteered at a local school as a teachers aide and they had me caring for the children they considered disruptive, and I was to do my best at helping them stay focused. We did a great job together and I knew I’d miss them when school ended for the year. On my last day, the children came into the auditorium and sang to me three songs, they told me they loved me and would miss me. We hugged and cried. I told them I would miss them too and I also loved them. I still think about them and it’s been many years now. I did run into one of them about 10 years ago now and he came up and told me who he was and was so happy to see me. I was amazed that he recognized me let alone remembered me. We talked for a long time and hugged goodbye, every once awhile I hear from him. This made me feel so good that I could make such an impression as to be remembered years and years later. I do my best with everyone I care for, to leave that lasting good impression.

Hi families!
My name is Ashton Freiner, and my husband and I recently moved to Kirksville so that he can start school at ATSU and I am looking for babysitting/nannying jobs in the Kirksville area!
I have over 10 years of experience caring for children from newborns to 13 years of age, and I truly love working with kids. I've worked with children in various settings, including church nurseries, VBS, kids camps, and as an in-home babysitter. I’m passionate about keeping little ones active and engaged, whether we’re playing outside, doing crafts, or reading together.
