More About Me

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

I have experience working with children through both paid work and volunteer service. I worked at the Southwest Boys & Girls Club, where I helped supervise and engage children in daily activities, ensuring they were safe, supported, and actively involved. In addition, I have volunteered with CREC Head Start, assisting with babies and toddlers and helping create a nurturing and structured environment. I also volunteered with The 2nd & 7 Foundation, where I read to elementary-aged children and encouraged literacy and confidence through storytelling. Through these experiences, I have developed strong communication skills, patience, responsibility, and a genuine passion for working with children of different ages.

• Arts and crafts (drawing, painting, simple DIY projects)
• Building with blocks or Legos
• Dress-up and imaginative play
• Making simple slime or sensory bins (age appropriate of course)

Learning-Based
• Reading books together
• Helping with homework
• Sight word games or simple math games
• Educational board games

Active Play
• Outdoor play (tag, sidewalk chalk, obstacle courses)
• Dance parties
• Simon Says or Freeze Dance
• Simple sports like soccer or catch

Calm / Evening Routine

• Coloring
• Storytime before bed
• Quiet play during nap transitions

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of working with kids is patience. Every child learns, communicates, and expresses themselves differently, and having patience allows you to truly understand and support them. It helps build trust, creates a calm environment, and makes children feel safe and respected.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite parts of working with kids is helping them with their homework and seeing them understand something they were struggling with. I also enjoy making snacks for them and creating a fun, relaxed environment where we can joke around and build a positive connection. I love being someone they feel comfortable learning and laughing with.
