A little bit about me

Hello, I have been working with children and animals for around 6 years. I love kiddos and animals of all personalities. I am ready to play, cook, lightly clean, and make your night out as easy as possible. I can't wait to meet your family!

I'd describe my personality as bright, fun, and easygoing.

I like working with kids because they are so much fun!

I'm looking for a job that needs help frequently and single event jobs.

I started working with kids when I was 13!

In my spare time, I like to read and listen to music. Otherwise, I am playing with my dog.

One thing you should know about me is I have 10 siblings, so I am prepared for anything!

My skills include cooking, light cleaning, arts and crafts, and outdoor activities!

A little bit about me

Safety is my utmost concern and I carefully monitor children when I take them on outings to the park or to museums, ANYWHERE. I understand good nutritional choices and I carefully prepare meals that are healthy for kids but that they also love to eat. I have had terrific relationships with all of the families and kids with whom I’ve worked.

I am only leaving my latest position because the children have now grown past the ages at which they need a nanny. Although my employer offered to keep me on in a housekeeping role, my true love is working with children. I have great verbal communication skills and can assist with all needs.
