More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
• Babysitting for various local families for infants on up through 5th grade starting @ age 10 through age 18
• From ages 19-21 ,I was a professional (live-in) nanny for a family in Washington, DC w/ 2 kids ages 6 & 8 yrs old. I went through Heartland Nannies (placement agency) & stayed with that family for 2 years before moving to Tucson to pursue my college education in pre-dental
• In Tucson, I worked as a temporary nanny (glorified babysitting) for various families when my schedule allowed (evenings & weekends).
• In 2003 I gave birth to my 1st child (son) & then in 2006 to my daughter. So, the last 20+ years of my life I've spent juggling a full-time career as a dental hygienist & as a single mom to 2 great kids. The old saying "Parenting is the hardest job you'll ever love" is so, so true! Those 2 kids...their hobbies became mine & their happiness was/is truly my happiness!
• Now...I am super, duper excited to transition from dental professional back to caring for children!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Indoor: Board games, card games, educational games, Hide-&-Go-Seek, music (dancing, playing piano (very rusty) & singing), reading books, crafts, & a heavy dose of silliness, laughter & creativity
Outdoor: Think overgrown kid!! >>>Sports of all kinds (one day I WILL conquer throwing a spiral w/ the football!), But one of those semi-cautious sorts who has never jumped off a bridge or out of a perfectly good airplane or been super fond of climbing trees (See: fear of heights).
My kids always had all the protective gear, mouth guards, etc. And still, to this day, you will never find me without a package of baby wipes, tube of Aquaphor, a mini 1st Aid kit, a mini pharmacy of (OTC) medicaments & of course water & healthy snacks!

The most important part about being a nanny...
Allowing a child to feel unconditional love, acceptance, cared for & safe. To be treated as a unique & special individual with a mutual respect & kindness that flows where we as caregivers & parents lead by example so they can thrive as little humans who evolve into exceptional people!
My experience with special needs children...
I've cared for Autistic as well as Down's
