A little bit about me

I previously worked as a nanny full time, then I was a preschool teacher at Skipwith Academy from [phone number hidden]. The family ai nannied for had 2 children, one of which was special needs. I helped both children with homework, making healthy snacks after school, picking up & dropping off to gymnastics practices, therapy sessions, and friends/neighbors homes. I also made sure their rooms were tidy (with their help), laundry-wash, dry, fold, putting away(children’s laundry only), washed dishes, vacuumed, and generally kept the house over all clean & tidy. Some nights I helped with cooking dinner, bath time, and bed time. I helped establish a healthy routine for both the kids, which is very important when you have children. I encouraged them to always use their manners, treat others kindly, helped them academically & showed them the importance of learning/doing well in school, and always made sure we had fun! The kids are now 17 & 20 and me and their family are still very close.

More About Me

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

Private nanny. And Skipwith academy.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Depends on the child’s interests.
Arts & crafts, playing outside, board games, dance parties, pretend cooking shows.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Teaching manners, values, good morals, and real life lessons. Ensuring safety, health, respect, and fun.

My experience with special needs children...

I have a lot of experience with special needs children. One child I nannied for from 4 years old to 9 years old had global developmental delay. She has not been diagnosed with anything more specific than that. She had speech delays, sensory issues, and growth problems. I helped her parents through getting her on the proper medication regimen, speech & physical therapy. I also have a nephew who is Autistic who I spend at least 3 days a week with.

The most important part about being a nanny...

When the kids asked me to come to their birthday parties, school plays, and their games/meets/events. It makes my heart happy that they want me to be a part of their life, even when they have their parents there.
