A little bit about me

Hello families!

My name is Molly, I'm 22 years old, and I am currently looking for live-in nanny opportunities!

I take pride in being a compassionate, understanding, and hardworking person with a passion for making a difference in children's lives.

I believe that seeing the world through a child's eyes and meeting them where they are at currently is the key to truly understanding them.

The thing that sets me apart from other candidates is my unique ability to connect with and see a child for who they really are.

As a creative writer, I love to take what I know about reading, writing, and other creative outlets and instill them into children's daily lives.

The world is a magical place, so exploring and going outside is also quite important to me.

I am always available to connect, so feel free to reach out!

I look forward to hearing from you!

A little bit about me

A warm greetings to all the lovely families on here, and god blessings to all in finding a awesome nanny. My name Theresa Angelique Alexander, which is also (affectionately called Ter ter by family and friends). I ran across your profile on craigslist and immediately became interested upon reading. A little more information about me. I chose my career as a nanny simply because I genuinely love being around children. The clue to raise happy/healthy children is to care, respect, understand them and above all love them, paying careful attention to their needs and desires. Also nurturing and disciplining them with genuine LOVE. Having such extensive experience with children gives me absolute confidence and success when helping to raise them. I'm an expert nanny with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I can raise happy, successful and healthy children. I feel that showing love as a nanny is most important. I am educated, sophisticated, dynamic, smart and HAPPY. I always ensure that the children I care for are happy, safe, and healthy and encourage them as they grow to be smart and self confident. I enjoy engaging them with intelligent stimulating activities, like reading, arts & craft, sports and any other physical activities for example. I also, teach them politeness and appropriate moral conduct to become successful individuals, themselves. My top priority is always the children, I am happy to assist with light household related matters (depending on the quantity of children and their ages), like: laundry, dusting, cooking, running errands (grocery shopping, post office, doctor's appointments, organize closets, drawers, etc. As a nanny, I try to alleviate the stress that many working parents face, by hopefully offering peace of mind knowing that their children are in great hands and care. My contact info is [phone number hidden]) or you can email me at ([email hidden]). Please consider me for this great opportunity and you'll find a nanny that's nurtu...
