A little bit about me

I graduated from UW-La Crosse with a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education, Early-Middle Childhood Education. I am thrilled to bring my passion to your family. With three years of experience teaching Kindergarten, I create inclusive safe places for students and teach students how to read, solve-problems and gain confidence. Also, I have taught a summer school class for many years titled “Moving onto Kindergarten.” Children thrive through play, hands-on experiences, and positive role models.
As a nanny from [phone number hidden], I had the privilege of working with an extraordinary family, watching their children grow from 3 months and 3 years old, to now 6 and 9 years old. They are like family to me, and we spend holidays together. I complete chores, help with school work, and plan activities. Finally, my student teaching experience in 4th, 5th, 4K, and 1st grade. I am particularly skilled in social-emotional learning and behavioral management. I am looking forward to meeting with your family.

More About Me

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

I taught in Kindergarten for three years, I have a bachelor's degree specializing in Elementary Education, I have experience nannying, and working at childcare centers.
I've cared for babies- 5th grade. I feel confident that I will make a great addition to your family.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Indoor activities include playing games, helping with nap time, reading and watching children read, taking them to the library, taking kids to the play gallery or different places to explore. At home, I love having a movie time, doing anything hands-on, and anything you strongly encourage your children to do. I am very flexible and enjoy many activities that foster growth and regulation for children.

With regards to outdoor activities, I absolutely love taking children to the park, beach, playing any sports with them, chalk, helping walk the dog (if applicable.) In spring and summer, I love spending the day outside. In past times that I have been a nanny, I have been responsible in getting children to swim practice, horse camp, baseball and other activities. I am a huge lover of the outdoors and using as little screens, as possible. But, obviously this is up to your family's discretion.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Ultimately, being a nanny is a huge responsibility. Making sure that the kids are taken care of and safe is the most important thing. Then, once this foundation is laid, nannying becomes about helping kids manage bigger feelings, having a clear and direct partnership with the family, and planning developmentally appropriate activities that will peak the child's interest.

As stated previously, my past nanny family is considered family. My skills include being trustworthy, dedicated and reliable.

My experience with special needs children...

I have been a general education teacher for three years, following my undergrad. I have had many students in my class who required special education services. For example, I have experience working with kids with developmental delay, adhd, anxiety, and Autism.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I vividly remember taking the little boy and girl I previously nannied to the park one day. He was only 6 months or so, and she was 3 years old. We were pushing her little brother on the swing and the two of them were just nonstop laughing. This moment just captured my why, as a nanny. To help find happiness in the simple moments and the two of them were enjoying each others presence.

Babysitter Available in Oconomowoc, WI: Kathleen R.

Hi!! My name is Katie Mae. I am new to Oconomowoc and looking for a full-time/part time Nanny position. I have four beautiful children of my own, two who are young adults and two who are teenagers that I co-parent with my ex. I babysat for a friend the other day and realized 1) how good I am with kids and 2) how much I miss young kids.
I have worked in the hospitality industry for over thirty years, so I know how to take care of people’s needs, cook, and keep a house tidy. Love and positivity are my mantra and treat everyone with respect. I taught all my kids sign language to help with the terrible twos and raised them on almost completely organic diets. I’m a firm believer in regulating screen time and love get the kids outdoors. I’m excited for my new chapter in Wisconsin and hope this website brings a new career as well!!

Kaylynn E. - Seeking Work in Oconomowoc

Live-In Part-Time Nanny Available in Oconomowoc, WI: Kaylynn E.

Hi! I’m Kaylynn, 18, and I just graduated from Oconomowoc High School. Next summer I’m starting college to study Early Childhood Education and Psychology, with plans to become a children’s psychologist. For the past 8 months I’ve been working hands-on with kids ages 0-3. Being part of that 0-3 stage is incredible it’s when so much brain development, language, and emotional growth happens. I love helping kids hit milestones, whether it’s a first word, first steps, or learning to share. I’m especially interested in how early experiences shape social-emotional health, and I want to use that knowledge to advocate for kids and families.

Outside of work, I’m excited to keep learning how play, routine, and connection help children thrive. My goal is to make sure every child feels seen, safe, and supported as they grow.
