More About Me

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

I have paid childcare experience caring for children ages 1–2. In addition, I have experience looking after children up to age 4 through family and informal caregiving. I am a kind, patient, and caring person who genuinely enjoys being around children. I love engaging with kids through play, activities, and learning while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy doing sensory activities, reading books, coloring, playing with toys, building blocks, and engaging with children based on their interests. One of my top priorities is making sure children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also want parents to have peace of mind knowing their child is in a safe, nurturing, and responsible environment while they are away. Building trust with both children and parents is very important to me.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is recognizing that every child is special in their own unique way. Each child has their own personality, interests, strengths, and needs, and I believe they deserve to be treated with kindness, patience, respect, and genuine care. I want children to feel safe, valued, and understood when they are with me. Knowing that I can be a positive, caring presence in a child's day and give parents peace of mind is what makes childcare so meaningful to me.

My experience with special needs children...

I do not have direct professional experience caring for children with special needs. However, my nephew is autistic, and I have spent time playing with him, interacting with him, and learning how to be patient, understanding, and supportive of his needs. While I have not provided babysitting care for a child with special needs, I am open to learning and committed to creating a safe, caring, and inclusive environment for every child.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments was watching a child I cared for get excited during a sensory activity we did together. Seeing their curiosity, happiness, and sense of discovery was incredibly rewarding. Moments like these remind me how much I enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn and grow in a fun, safe, and supportive environment.
