A little bit about me

I've been babysitting for over 4 years. I've worked with children that have ASD. I've worked with children who have behavioral problems. I have no issues with doing house work or anything of that nature. I just ask however if your child is on a set schedule. Let me know what that schedule is.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Holden! I’m looking for a full time nanny job. I’m happy to care for up to three children. I’m currently not in school so my schedule is very open. I’m passionate about working with all kids of different ages and backgrounds. I’ve spent my entire life caring for children, as being the oldest of four. At age fourteen, I started working for my mother at her business called the Mothership, in Asheville, NC. She is a full time doula, and I spent many years working alongside her, learning about childcare and infant care. My main passion is working with children that have special needs. I spent my Junior year working in the EC classroom at Watauga Highschool alongside the teachers, helping to teach my peers about emotional regulation, communication, as well as school curriculum.
Other skills include cooking, cleaning and caring for pets.
