A little bit about me

Unfortunately I don't have official Nanny experience yet, however I've taken care of children within my family my entire life! I also have taken care of my grandparents and mother for the past 2 years, keeping them healthy and on track with medications, as well as cooking, cleaning, decluttering, hygiene, and running errands (especially during the pandemic to keep them safe). My grandmother has dementia, so trust me when I say I know all about demonstrating patience and understanding while trying to get someone to do something they do not want to do. I never yell. I can be firm and demonstrate authority without having to resort to yelling. I am punctual, organized, and a great cook! My cooking focuses on health and nutrition, getting the macros that you need in your diet! I am a kid at heart though and will color, play pretend or run around outside with the best of 'em!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Annie and I am the eldest of seven children, I am 18 years old and I have had lots of experience taking care of my own siblings, as well as babysitting for families at church. I normally would be volunteering as a counselor at a children’s Bible camp during the summer but I needed to stay home and work more this year and was sad to think that I wouldn’t get to be with the kids at camp, which then got me hoping to be a nanny. I have also had some experience with kids who have special needs. I work with an older student, as a “mentor”at Bethel university, who has down syndrome. I also currently work at a greenhouse but should be done with that at the end of May/ beginning of June. I am willing to drive somewhat further from where I live(Ramsey), but preferably not much farther than a 40 minute drive.
