More About Me

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

I began babysitting when I was 13 years old. I also worked in our church nursery before moving to Mississippi, just across the state line in Alabama. I have previous experience working in daycares in Tuscaloosa Alabama during a short time in college. I’m not currently certified for CPR, however, I can definitely obtain certification.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Playing outside, building forts, teaching children their ABC’s and 123’s. I also enjoy reading fun books, coloring, arts and crafts.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Loving the children as if they are your own. Being patient and understanding as they’re so young and even older children, as they are all still learning and growing.

My experience with special needs children...

I haven’t had much experience with special needs children, however, I’m willing to learn.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment is from the beginning on my first day and watching them grow into fine young men and women, and they remember all the fun things we did and memories we made.
