A little bit about me

Hello my name marsha Amelia Minott I’m 27 year old I went to morris high school Im from the bronx also African-American half Jamaican and African I have been babysitting for the last four to six years in the summer. I enjoy being around children and watching them learn new things.
I prefer to watch younger children. Younger ages seem to be easier to take care of and they listen better than older children do. Older children can get bored with a toy within minutes as younger children can play with them for quite a while.
I usually start by getting them dressed, feeding them breakfast, and then going to the library for a picture book. After that, we set off to the park. We enjoy the outdoors before its lunch time. We then eat lunch, lay down to watch a movie, and then off for a short nap. Lastly we go to the pool for an hour or two which concludes my day.
I usually babysit only once or twice a week. I babysit at my neighbor’s house for their children and a few others. I love being around

Provided after-school care for a group of elementary school students, including homework assistance, supervised playtime, and healthy snack preparation. Led group activities and supervised children of various ages at a summer camp, incorporating creative games and outdoor exploration

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Reading to children helps them develop language skills, learn new vocabulary, and become independent readers. Visit a zoo to learn about animals and see shows Visit a museum with hands-on exhibits, a planetarium, or an IMAX theater. Go to a playground where kids can climb, crawl, and explore. Do crafts to help your child develop their creativity, fine motor skills, and knowledge.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Families trust nannies with their children, so it's important to be someone who cares about them and prioritizes their safety.
