A little bit about me

Greetings! I am a professional nanny seeking my next part-time family! I have worked full-time as a nanny for the past two years and have experience working in the mental health field as a therapist. I would describe my care-taking style as gentle and genuine. I like to use practices that are informed by (and that model) empathy, understanding, and respect for children and families.

I value connection to nature and art, and a balance of exercise and quiet activities! I enjoy facilitating arts and crafts, outdoor games, fun trips, and educational opportunities. I am happy to help with homework, preparing snacks and lunches, transportation, light housekeeping, organizing, and more as discussed! I love finding win-win solutions through connection and nurturing, and I value helping children respond with receptivity rather than reactivity, while modeling this myself as a caretaker. I look forward to building an ongoing relationship with your family.

More About Me

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

I have over 15 years of babysitting experience, experience as an arts and crafts instructor at a summer camp, and I worked as a therapist providing in-home counseling for children and families for a community-based agency in Columbus, Ohio.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Indoors I enjoy arts and crafts, puzzles, building blocks/legos/developmentally appropriate toys and games, creating scavenger hunts, building forts, listening to and making music, imaginary play, reading and writing .

Outdoors I enjoy going for walks, using strollers/ bikes/wagons/scooters, swimming/wading, scavenger hunts, nature identification, sidewalk chalk, playgrounds, walking pets, creating sensory games, reading/writing outside.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being one more adult to help a child feel cherished, safe and supported. Helping ease stress load for parents so they can spend quality intentional times with their children. And of course, helping to raise the next generation of intelligent and emotionally aware humans!

Arielys V. - Seeking Work in Asheville

Part-Time Nanny Available in Asheville, NC: Arielys V.

My name is arielys , I’ve never been a nanny, but I love kids. I have an autistic little brother that I take care all the time and he sees me as his sister and like a second mom. I’m only 17 so I’m still in school. so I’m looking for someone who is willing to work out hours with me. Also I would like to work with kids who are around 10+. I don’t have my license and I’m working on my permit so driving to pick up kids isn’t an option. My hope for a starting pay is at least $15h but I understand if it’s a bit lower than that. Also I’m not Cpr certified but I have learned cpr. So with that said, If anyone is willing to give me a shot I’ll be forever grateful.
