A little bit about me...

I am a very caring & loving person. My mother was an elderly caretaker & my dad works with disabled adults. I have a wide range of experience even just from the time spent helping with & being around the people my parents cared for. I've helped take care of other peoples pets so I'm pet friendly. I know basic ASL. When I was 13, I helped a 2nd grade teacher for 1 hour 3 times a week. I've been helping take care of my cousins kids at family get togethers since I was 12/13. I have helped with church nurseries and summer programs helping to watch kids. I was a live-in caretaker for my dementia grandma for 4 years and she couldn't do anything on her own even having to change her diaper. The last 3 years I have helped with a few church childcare programs watching kids so the mothers can attend a woman's program during the week. I am currently living with one of my cousins who has a 5-month-old son, and have helped take care of him as needed while I'm looking for a job.

More About Me

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

I have worked with children in many different settings: Sunday nursery, church volunteering, family get togethers, 2nd grade teacher's helper when I was in 7th grade, daycare worker for a few churches women's bible studies programs.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I pretty much enjoy everything, but I think it's fun when you can find different arts and crafts for the kids to enjoy. I have always enjoyed making kids happy, playing games with them, kicking a ball around outside, and making a meal together.

The most important part about being a nanny...

For me it's all about the kids. I have fun when they have fun. I just recently went with one of my cousins, his wife and their four kids to Michigan's Adventure. I was extra hands to help with the kids seeing as how they are 8, 6, 3 and 18 months. At one point, I was watching the 6 and 3 yo. The 3yo didn't like getting the water splashed on his face at the splash park so I was trying to stand to the side with him. I didn't realize that there was a water bucket above us and it dumped out on us. He started to cry and I instantly wasn't feeling happy about the situation because he wasn't having fun. When all the kids were happy, I was happy. I felt really proud when the youngest two fell asleep because they we so tired from their fun filled day. My cousin's wife and I talked about how it was still a really good day for us even though we only got a chance to go on two roller coaster rides because of the kids having fun. It's fun to watch them have fun.

My experience with special needs children...

My father works with adult who have special needs. Me being around the people he works with has helped me know how to handle some situations and what to expect. Through my childcare programs with churches, I have had some experience working with kids with down syndrome and autism.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I wouldn't call this a nanny moment because I was a childcare worker not a nanny but it works. Last year in one of the church childcare programs I did, one of the mom's was always shocked when she would come to pick up her son because he was always asleep in my arms. She told me on a number of occasions that her son would not let her or her husband hold him when he would sleep and that he would cry and cry. With me he would take his bottle and then fall right asleep in my arms. I think it was a sweet moment for me to know that I was doing something right for him to be so comfortable with me even from the first time he met me.
