A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Tamia, also called Mia. I currently work as a behavior technician at an autism clinic, and previously spent three years as a para-educator in District U46 supporting children with diverse behavioral and special needs, both verbal and nonverbal. I also have experience caring for senior citizens from my caregiving work. I have my driver’s license and reliable transportation. I can help with light housekeeping and some meal prep. I’m mostly looking for weekend or occasional nannying opportunities since I work full-time weekdays, but I can sometimes help after work too. I’d love to support families by offering safe and reliable care.

More About Me

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

My relevant experience I’ve cared for children were nannying from time to time, being a daycare teacher, being a para educator for the school district, and right now, being a behavior technician who will become a registered behavior technician once certified

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Into activities that I like to do is taking the kids out to the park, doing some type of activity where there’s arts and crafts, have little movie nights with them, which could be any kid cartoon movie, playing little fun games which could be tagged or hide and seek, doing some sort sensory play like using shaving cream and mixing it with glitter, or reading books with them and using different voices for the book characters. Etc

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about ting is making sure that the kid is having fun that they’re interacting that know you’re keeping them entertained making sure that they’re safe and just overall having that fun experience that they can go back and tell their mom and dad even if they’re verbal or nonverbal there’s a way that they can communicate regardless of it is with a the AAC device or a word board and they’re letting their parents know. I had fun today with my nanny.

My experience with special needs children...

My type of special needs kids and I have experience with our both non-verbal and verbal and some of them, high maintenance behaviors and even some with low maintenance behaviors.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moment nanny would probably be playing music for the kid that I was nannying and they started dancing and I was cheering them on and it was so cute

I grew up in a Hispanic household where I was taught to care for younger kids than me as babies , I learned to think fast,act fast and be fast because within seconds kids can have an accident , panic, etc. and all they need is patience and help. I love to be the reason kids think bigger and brighter.
