A little bit about me
Hi families, I am an educator with 9+ years of experience working in Early Childhood. From [phone number hidden] I studied Child Development at GRCC where I obtained a degree in the field. In 2019 I gave birth to my now 6 year old son. Getting back to work, I worked for the Boys & Girls Club in Grand Rapids (nonprofit org. that provides various services for children & families in the community) for 2 years during COVID. To further expand my skills, I went to work for the YMCA as a lead preschool teacher for almost 3 years before moving on to work briefly for Head Start. I’ve spent time nannying for a 2 year old & their 2 older siblings which included light housework, meal prep & implementing developmentally appropriate activities. Last year I worked as a sub teacher in the Grand Rapids area spending time in the MOCI/ASD rooms, art, gym, & K-5th grade classrooms. I currently work as a before & after school site director for a K-8 school & I’m looking for something to fill my time during the day.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Sylvia:). I am 21 years old and was a nanny from the age of 16-19. I was a nanny for a sweet little 4 year old and a cute little 1 year old. I then started working in a daycare in the 3-4 year old room. I got CPR certified and took multiple hours of classes for child development for all ages! I love taking the kids to do activities outside rather it’s making obstacle courses in the back yard, going to the park, or even a beach/ splash pad near by! (If parents are comfortable) I love to find arts and crafts or even sensory bins off Pinterest. I have a baby of my own so I know how important trust is. I like to shadow the parents rather on the weekend or weekday so I can see what the kiddos day to day looks like and to make sure you (the parents) are comfortable with me around.

A little bit about me
I'm a retired nurse & adore children. I've cared for my grandchildren here in the States as well as in England. My 3 children are all successful, happily married with bright happy kids who need less hands on care from me as they grow up. I was a sous chef then home care nurse for pediatric patients for 3 years then a family practice nurse for 14 years and loved it! I can renew CPR certification if you'd like. I'd love to meet you and your children. I know how precious they are to you.
