More About Me

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

Ive worked at two different elementary schools as a para educator. One school was in California where I worked in a general education classroom with a child who needed one on one help. I also worked at an elementary school in Seattle, WA as a paraeducator in a self-contained special education classroom.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love getting outside and exploring nature and doing fun outings. I also enjoy helping them learn and grow and use their imaginations. Legos, arts and crafts, puzzles, and reading are all fun indoor activities I love to do with the children I work with.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being patient, getting down on the child's level to comfort them and talk them calmly through a problem. Learning to understand them where they are and helping them grow and learn.

My experience with special needs children...

One child with autism, FTT (failure to thrive, and ADHD.

Ive also worked in a self contained sped classroom with children who have autism and or Down syndrome. I've also worked with children that are non verbal.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I finished my last nanny job in Seattle this September of 2022. The last week we made a list of all the fun activities we wanted to do together. Zoo, beach, jump house, arts and craft day etc. On my last day we threw a party and the kids made me the sweetest framed picture of us and each wrote a letter for me. It was one of the sweetest moments that brought me to tears because they had become family to me.
