A little bit about me

Hi, I’m 18 years old and am one of five children. I grew up in Jericho VT. In my free time, I enjoy playing the guitar, taking walks, reading, and knitting. When I was little I loved Legos, dancing, and playing outside. I first discovered that I enjoyed taking care of children when I was in grade school and I was an after school companion for a preschool child. I found that it was a rewarding experience to help take care of this little girl while her parents worked nearby. From there I started volunteering to babysit. While I've had other jobs, my favorite job was working as a camp counselor for 4-12 year olds.

More About Me

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

My first experience caring for a child was when I was in grade school and I was an after school companion for a 4 year old. I continued to babysit for this child until she moved away a few years ago. I volunteered as a babysitter for week-long seminars that provided childcare. The children I looked after during these days ranged in age from 6 months to 10 years old. I volunteered as a leader for summer children's programs, leading the children in crafts and games. In high school I worked as a camp counselor at Very Merry Theater for 4 to 12 year olds. Some weeks we helped the children to write and perform in their own play, other weeks centered around learning about nature and nature activities.

The most important part about being a nanny...

While the most important thing about being a nanny is keeping the children safe, it is also important for the children to feel safe and that the nanny cares about them. It's important to be actively engaged with the children and to offer activities that are healthy alternatives to screen time .

My experience with special needs children...

While I know two girls with Downs Syndrome, I don't have any experience working with children who have special needs.
