More About Me

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

So I started taking kids as the age of 12 yrs old, either going with my older sister to where she was called to babysit, ( so I went along with her to help her ). Otherwise I stayed at my parents house to babysit just in case anything ever happened. Then started watching kids alone at the age of 15. I became a live-out nanny at the age of 20. I mainly kept babies and toddlers. I've also been a live-in nanny at the age of 22. I also worked in the church nursery during church services and during other events sometimes alone or with other adults.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love doing arts arts and crafts. Reading to and helping children learn how to read. I also love taking them on trips to in the museums, the zoo, Sea World, play grounds , swimming and other places that are age appropriate.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I think the most important thing is...
1) knowing how to do as the parent ask you to,
2) Knowing how to handle the kids when or if they get out of hand
3) Knowing how and following the parents directions on discipline
4) and knowing how to contact tor who to contact in case of an emergency

My experience with special needs children...

I had experience with children with special needs has been very rewarding as I got to help about 3 of them learn how to walk, talk, taught them the ABC's, 123's. I've also babysat children who are autistic, and a few other things challenges.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was when I had taken 3 children to Fiesta Texas and just watching them enjoy all the games we play and all the rides. I did have a friend with me because 2 of the children were twins and couldn't do all the rides with their older sister unless there were 2 adults. But I know they a blast. They wanted to go back every day. We did take them back two more times before summer was over.

Live-In Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in San Antonio, TX: Alexis R.

Hi! My name is Alexis and I have been working with kids through friends and family since I was 10 years old and I am now currently 22! When I was in high school, I took childhood development my junior and senior year and throughout my life I've just always loved children even though I haven't worked professional settings. I do love babysitting and taking care of kids and just making sure they're safe while the parents work. I am the oldest of three sisters and I have many cousins so I have my fair share of dealing with all ages, dealing with autistic kids and so on and so forth! I'm also a huge animal lover, and so that wouldn't be a problem if pets were involved as well.

Delilah R. - Seeking Work in San Antonio

Part-Time Nanny Available in San Antonio, TX: Delilah R.

Hello!! My name is Delilah I am a newer recent babysitter as I have always had little kids to take care for why not do it and get paid, right? That’s exactly what I thought, especially the ways I can help families watch their little ones while the parents can enjoy their night or just not worry about leaving their children with no supervision while they have to be away. I am a middle child with a new expecting sibling coming soon. I live with my mother and my two fully related siblings. I care for my little brother and my sister almost as much ( she’ll hate me for that). I am 16 years old, a SOPHMORE in highschool, I do have another job right now, but they have very flexible scheduling, my favorite color is green, I want to be a dentist when I’m older, I have 2 cats, I clean my house all the time, I enjoy roller skating, I like a lot of salty food, and I LOVE the show bojack horseman.
