A little bit about me

Hello,

My name is Andrea, I am 29 years old. I’m currently working as a full time nanny. I found my job through this site and have been with the same family for over four years. I’ve been very fortunate to work with such a fantastic family. I care for two little girls, ages eight and nine. Unfortunately, this job is coming to a close soon, which is why I am looking for a new one!
My job details include, arriving early in the morning to get the kids ready for school, getting breakfast made, making lunches, making sure they finish their morning chores, and taking them to the bus stop. I enjoy their school breaks and summer vacation the most because we finally get to spend time together! I drive them around to practices, dance classes, swimming lessons, tennis lessons, we go to the zoo, ice-skating, we love to ride bikes/scooters or run along the bike path. We’ve gone to movies, the pool is a popular choice in the summer, basically we always find something fun to do and stay active.
Aside from time with the girls, I run errands, do the girls laundry, clean the entire house once a week, and cook dinners/meal prep (which I love to do). My favorite part of working for them, is teaching the girls how to play piano!! They’ve been taking piano lessons from me for three years and are my best students! (Because I make sure they get their practice time in)
I love working with kids and have always been the go to babysitter in my family. I am more than comfortable watching many children at the same time. I’m also very comfortable with babies. I watch my nieces and nephews weekly. The oldest being four years old the youngest being almost 2 months old.
Before I was a nanny, I worked as a music instructor, and musician. ( I am still a working musician) Before that, I worked as a CNA. I truly enjoy caring for people.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact me. I’m very open for discussion!

Thank you for your time,
Andrea

More About Me

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

I have taught piano to children ages 4 years to 15 years. This was one of my favorite things to do with my students and children I babysat.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Playing music, playing games, doing arts and crafts, playing outside, swimming, going to the movies, going to the zoo, the mall, going on bike rides and walks... Really doing anything with kids can be fun!

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with a child with severe ADHD. She was 9 years old and I didn't have a whole lot of time with her, but it was a little adjustment and then routine fell into place with her. The good thing with us was that I love routine and organization and that is something she desperately needed daily. It was a bit of a match made in heaven!

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was at my first job. I was watching two girls, who I ended up watching for 5 1/2 years. The younger one was pretty shy at the beginning. So, one day when I was leaving, she called my name and ran up to me and hugged me begging me to stay....even though I was going to be back the next day haha.... Anyway, I thought it was so sweet and have always remembered it.
