A little bit about me

Hi there! My name's Maggie and I'm seeking a position as a live-in Nanny or Au Pair. Working with children has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember and I've always dreamt of making it my career. I began working with children through my local school district as a Camp Counselor for an Extended-School year program that was held at a local park in my area. I then held a few after-school babysitting positions and summer nannying positions throughout high school and college.

I attended the Indiana University of Pennsylvania for Early Education and Special Education and graduated a year early after completing an internship at a daycare. I have experience working with kiddos of all ages and have worked with group sizes as large as thirty. I worked for Americorps in downtown Pittsburgh as well, so I've been able to experience different settings and styles of working with children.

I hope to be able to get to know you and your family and hopefully help out! Thank you! :-)

A little bit about me

Hello I'm Teresa! I have a BS in psychology with a focus in early childhood development. I have worked for DHHS - child protective services for 2.5 years and directly with foster children during that time. I am from a family of 11 children and was always the "mothers helper". I have helped to raise my now almost 6 year old niece since she was 2 years old. I enjoy watching children learn by helping them through play, crafts, outdoor learning, creative experiments etc. I enjoy watching child develop throughout the years and find their sense of self and confidence. Every child is different as are their needs/comforts. I listen to each child and meet them where they are in terms of needs and wants. I take a gentle approach in parenting and would want to discuss parenting styles to ensure we are working together to support your children in the best way.

< 1 year experience

A little bit about me

Hello, I am Boomer, I am from a small village in Central Pennsylvania. My upbringing was unique because I was raised with 10 other children. Growing up around many younger children inspired a strong sense of responsibility for their well-being. I learned to be patient with them, taught them to do tasks independently, and helped them understand their emotions and those of others around them. As a result of my care for others, I find the well-being, education, and ethics of future generations of utmost importance. I am empathetic and generous, but I run a tight ship. My main goal is to leave a positive, lasting impression with the kids I meet and care for.
