A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Dami, and I’m passionate about working with children to create fun, safe, and enriching experiences. With over six years of hands-on experience in childcare, I’ve served in various roles such as a lead camp counselor, swim instructor, and Kids Team Member, working with children from infants to teenagers.

In my previous roles, I supervised groups of up to 100 children, planning engaging activities such as arts and crafts, sports, swimming, and field trips. I also focused on creating an environment where every child felt valued, which resulted in high return rates for our programs. My background in lifeguarding and swim instruction has equipped me with safety-first skills and CPR training to ensure your little ones are always in good hands.

Currently a college student in Molecular Biosciences and Biotechnology. This has honed my organizational and multitasking abilities. I am committed to fostering learning, and fun while maintaining safe environment.

As a college senior majoring in Molecular Biosciences and Biotechnology, I’m well-equipped to assist with homework across various subjects. I have a personal hobby for painting and love sharing creative projects that encourage self-expression.

With over four years of swim instructing experience, I enjoy teaching swimming and organizing water activities that build confidence and skills. My goal is to create a balance of fun, creativity, and learning in every activity I share with kids.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is ensuring the safety, well-being, and happiness of the children in your care. This involves creating a nurturing and supportive environment where children feel secure and valued.

Building trust with both the children and their parents is essential, as it lays the foundation for open communication and a positive relationship. Equally important is fostering the child’s growth and development through engaging activities, consistent routines, and emotional support. As a nanny, adaptability, patience, and genuine care are key to meeting the unique needs of each child and family.

My experience with special needs children...

I have specialized training to work with neurodivergent individuals in swim lessons.
