A little bit about me

I'm a 27 year old mother to a 19 month old. Before becoming a mother, I was a professional nanny for over ten years. I specialize in attachment and gentle parenting techniques. I also work part time as a party character for children's parties. I'm looking to open up my house to a family or two that need more affordable childcare but don't want to put their children into daycare. I figured this could be a good way to do what I love, taking care of children, make some money doing it, and my daughter could play with other kids her age since I won't put her into daycare either. We have a very lovable golden retriever and two friendly cats. We live on an acre of forested land and have a large child friendly house with lots of toys.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Nanny for private families, assisstant manager for Lollipop Park (an indoor amusement park for children), and an actress for parties. I dress up as characters and go to children's parties.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

We go for a lot of walks, we're by a hiking trail. I have a car and I can drive the kids to a park. I love activities like painting and making learning fun. I love to bake and cook and go on fun adventures.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The safety of the children comes first. Whatever that may look like. Whether it's don't touch that hot thing, I don't care if you hate me for saying no. To telling a parent "hey, your child needs you right now. They don't need you to get angry or yell, they just need you. They need your love." Because a child's mental health is important as well.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I specialized in the "troubled children" so my favorite moments were when I was dealing with those "troubled children" and I would just sit with them and talk and these kids would become vulnerable with me and talk to me about what was going on. I realized that these "troubled children" Are usually just children who feel unheard or unseen. They're children who want more attention from their parents and want to feel more connection. I realized that these children ask for love in the most unloving ways and as a mom now, I remember whenever my daughter acts out, could I have been more reseptive to her emotions or to her needs? What could I have done to help her act better?
