A little bit about me
My name is Violet. I am in my third year at Southern miss where I am studying psychology and child advocacy studies. I am patient, encouraging, maternal, responsible, fun, friendly, flexible, and experienced. My background in child care is extensive. As a big sister to two little sisters, I naturally took on the role of caretaker at a young age. Being responsible for my little sisters well prepared me to be a great candidate in my pre-teen years to be a babysitter and nursery helper. Those early experiences gave me the skills to step into bigger roles from there I spent many summers as a camp counselor, teacher for a children’s out reach program, church nursery worker, and a nanny. I’ve nannied for two different families. Both families had small children but one of the children I was responsible for has special needs. With 7 years of diversified experience in the nannying world I would make me an excellent nanny for your family.
Warm regards,
Violet
