More About Me

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

I worked at Xtreme Craze, a children’s play center, where I cared for kids of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. I helped supervise play areas, ensured safety, and created a fun, welcoming environment while interacting with both kids and parents.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love keeping kids engaged through creative and active play like arts and crafts, music, dancing (as I'm a dancer myself), games, and imaginative activities. I enjoy finding what each child likes and making sure they’re having fun while also feeling comfortable.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, trusting, and positive environment where children feel cared for and supported, while also giving parents peace of mind that their child is in good hands.

My experience with special needs children...

At Xtreme Craze, I regularly worked with children with a wide range of needs and abilities, which taught me patience, adaptability, and how to create an inclusive environment where every child feels supported and valued. I also have experience babysitting my younger cousins with special needs, where I’ve learned how to be attentive, understanding, and responsive to each child’s unique needs.
