More About Me

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

For 3 years I ran a nature program course to get children involved with the local Wildlife as well as teach them about important Environmental aspects often managing around 20 children at a time for upwards of 3 hours

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love getting Outdoors enjoying local Wildlife teaching children about technology and about arts and crafts helping children learn how to read and teaching them basic life skills like cooking cleaning and helping them with learning everyday skills

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is most definitely bonding with the children because even if they're having some struggles it's easily solved through communication and working it through with the children and Punishment should always be the last thing on your mind when a child is having struggles regardless of age

My experience with special needs children...

Most of the children I worked with during my nature program for 3 years consisted of a lot of children with autism and down syndrome, the only time we ever head issues is when our neurodivergent students would get overwhelmed by the temperature which was easily solved with water and cooling off in a car

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moment from being a nanny has got to be when I was babysitting a kid for a friend and that kid proceeded to bring me every individual fruit in the house trying to convince me I should eat them, only to find out from the mother later that the reason he was doing it was because he's been trying to get every guest to eat all the foods he doesn't like in the house so he can say people stole it and he wouldn't have to eat it at dinner
