I’m a nanny because I would love to start nannying again for a variety of reasons. First, I enjoy the opportunity to meet a new family and connect with them on a meaningful level. Second, I love being a care-taker. I have always considered myself a patient, organized and responsible person and I find that those qualities are essential in order to be a successful nanny. In addition to those traits, I also enjoy leading an active life--participating in sports, engaging in music, creating art, etc. I find those are also important characteristics in caring for children. Overall, I enjoy the challenges and rewards being a nanny offers, and I can't wait to meet my next family.
My past childcare experience I have enjoyed being a babysitter/nanny for the last ten years. My past experiences have included infant care (diapering, feeding, putting to bed, etc.), toddler care (feeding, reading, playing, bedtime routine), and a variety of other ages (arranging and supervising play-dates, helping with homework, planning fun and educational outings to museums, the pool, etc.). My duties have also included cleaning, cooking, laundry, meal preparation, driving children to and from events/practices, etc. Each family is unique, and I have learned to adjust my techniques based on parental desires and the needs of each individual child.
Additional comments Right now, I would prefer to watch children out of my home. I own my own home in Carpentersville on a quiet street with a fenced-in backyard. I have plenty of books/games/toys for children and I am a short drive from a variety of playgrounds. My sister, also an exceptional child care provider, is living with me and will be helping me out should we have more than one family interested in our services!
