A little bit about me

I am 20 years old and have been working with kids on and off since I was 8 years old. My mom had an in home daycare and I helped with the kids. Once I was old enough to work I bounced between some small high school jobs to see what I liked best. I worked at a small kids campground for 3 years. After, I worked at my elementary school as a para substitute in preschool and the school daycare. After I graduated I needed full time and worked at a daycare caring for 6 weeks to 8. I then worked at a small christian daycare before leaving for college. I am now in the educator prep program at ISU and plan to work with kids for the rest of my life. I found early on that I have a deep love for children and would love to still work with them even though I'm in school. I am available 10-15 hrs max because of my class schedule. I may be available for summer care but i am not sure yet and likely wont be until around April/May time frame.

More About Me

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

i have worked in 3 daycares. first was right after graduation and did not offer enough hours outside of summer operation hours. second was a catholic daycare that had some conflicts with properly caring for infants of a specific staff member and had very poor working relationships with many other staff. third was the replacement for the second and I had to leave for school after 11 months. all three were great places and I would recommend all of them. I miss all the kids from each place deeply. I still keep in contact with many families.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Board games, sports games, sensory games, pool games, simple stuff like going to playgrounds, picnics for snacks or lunch, often times libraries will host fun activities for kids throughout the year so doing things like that, arts and crafts, etc

The most important part about being a nanny...

Connecting with each child individually, becoming an important part of a child’s routine. Helping a family to stay connected and happy without the stress of childcare.

My experience with special needs children...

i do not have experience with special needs children and am not qualified to work with them.

The most important part about being a nanny...

while babysitting for my cousin and her friends during fair week, i had 9 kids in my care and we all played hide and seek. it was so fun, me and the oldest of my cousins kids hid in the pantry and watched the seekers feet run around under the door. we spilled a box of cereal and laughed so hard the seeker found us.
