A little bit about me

My goal as a Nanny is to care for, guide, instruct, protect, and teach children. I am willing to do housekeeping that includes helping children clean their rooms, clean play area, and laundry. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am caring, loving, committed, responsible, and diligent.
I absolutely love being around children and being able to be the helping hand for families. I have children of my own. 2 of school age and a 2 year old! I bring my 2 year old to nanny jobs! Until he is old enough to go to school. I have experience in watching up to 7 kids at a time. I grew up around kids. Would love to be a big part of your family!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Angela Rice and I am 22 years old. I'm currently working at an elementary school as a substitute. I also run the After School Care program at the school. I began my journey watching children when I was in high school. I've been babysitting a family of 7 for the past 6 years. Through this experience, I've gained experience working with a special needs child. Although every child and their needs are different, this has helped me with patience and also understanding and providing for all the children in this family. Working at the school with children ages 3-12 years old has been the most beneficial for me in how I communicate and assist children. I also received my certificate in Early Childhood Education. I will be going back to school at Metro State in the fall. I know that help is needed during the summer when the kids are out of school. I'm open to meeting any family and the children in order to determine whether I would be beneficial in caring for your children.
