A little bit about me

I worked at a daycare for about 6 months and loved it. I then babysat some of the children I worked with on weekends and weekdays after work and loved working with the children individually. I love getting to know children and from a very young age I have always loved helping out with my younger cousins when they were infants. It would be ideal for kiddos to come to my house but if need I can come to you :)

A little bit about me

Hello! I am a beauty school student who typically works in retail during the busy holiday season! I am looking to become a child-care provider because I have been helping my sister with her kids for years! The day to day struggle of being a parent for her as a single mom was a real one! It took a long time to figure out where we could all really help her out. In the end it made me most sense to have me live with her during this difficult time! I got lots of hands of experience of infant and toddler care during this time! I ended up staying with her for around a year to bring up her 2 year old at the time, and help care for the new baby also! When I left Lily and Bentley they were set up for success as I taught my sister meal prepping, and how to schedule house work into her busy schedule. To this day I'm still her emergency contact when things get a bit messy! However they are getting to be older now and my sister has mastered being a mom, so I'm not needed as much!

A little bit about me

Hello,
My name Is Danielle Calhoun, I just recently re-located to the Fort Wayne area, and am currently seeking a part time position to fill in my schedule.

I hold a CDA Certificate in Early Childhood Education, and am pursuing my Degree in Education. I am CPR and First aid certified with TB clearance.

Since I started in this field, I have obtained over 10 years of work experience in both private and professional child care settings.

All of my experiences have only added to my desire to pursue my dream of working with young children and helping them develop into all that they can be for the good. I enjoy the job of being a Nanny because it allows for me to use what I have learned from teaching and attending school on a more personal level, and to create a meaningful connection with the child(ren) under my care, and the families I will be working with.

Thank you so much for your consideration, I would love to speak with you🙏

Sincerely,
Danielle Calhoun
