More About Me

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

I have done some volunteer work taking care of children at summer camps and programs, all day. This included meal time, crafts, sports, and learning time.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love the outdoors, whether it is sports or arts and crafts, I always enjoy them. I also like going for hikes and walks with the kiddos, especially if they have dogs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters to me most about being a nanny is making sure the children feel safe, confident, and most of all happy. I want to create a comfortable environment when I am a nanny, and be somebody that the children/child can have in their life to go to.

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with children with developmental delays, ADHD, and autism.
