Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Reading, games, play outside, teach cooking skills, picnics, play catch, backyard camping.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The obvious answer is to keep them safe at all times, but also remembering that I am not their parent (s), but a person entrusted with their care in their parent’s absence.
My experience with special needs children...
My grandchild is autistic, which has been a good learning experience for me, especially understanding learning speed / style differences, helping with frustration or over stimulation caused behavior, and how to help the child know they are safe until they can calm themselves.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Watching children learn new skills, those lightbulb moments are precious and getting to watch them learn and grow is a gift. Sharing laughter and adventures through books.

I am seeking a summer position, as my program is rigorous and time-consuming during the academic year but does not run through the summer months. I have lived in Alaska my entire life and truly value the sense of community here. My long-term goal is to complete my degree and continue providing thoughtful, high-quality care to members of my community.
