A little bit about me

I started working with children about 10+ years ago through a private school as a nursery leader and as a gym leader. I then moved onto the YMCA, primarily in the infant and toddler class. I began working as a Certified Private Nanny and a Newborn Care Specialist 4 years ago and have been loving it! I am experienced with multiples and specialize in infants/ newborns and toddlers. I do have experience with children with special needs (Autism, Downs, G-Tube, Diabetes, Food Allergies).

I have an AAS in Early Childhood Education and Development and a college background in Family Psychological Development. I am CPR/ First Aide Certified, Life Guard Certified and have a good reliable vehicle and clean background.

My skills include sign language/ toddler language development, teaching skills for toddlers (color recognition, animal recognition, sensory exploration), cooking, sleep training, cleaning, potty training, developmental milestone advancement, etc.

More About Me

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

I have been in charge of church nursery and toddler classes, working at a private school, then moving onto a YMCA daycare, and finally as a professional Nanny and NCS. I have served as a leader at various summer camps over the years as well.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy being outside, taking them to parks, drawing, board games, playing with sand or plato, sing- song time, baking, etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Making sure the child is having the time of their lives and that their developmental needs are met. Childhood years only last so long and I see it as my job to make the most of them and to make them memorable.
