Raquel, a Nanny for Hire in Edmond, OK 73034
Ever since I was a child myself, I have had a love and passion to nurture and care for children. I have nine years experience working with all ages from newborn to high school. I also have experience with autistic & special needs children. Since June 2013, I served as a full-time nanny for two 3-year-olds, twin boys; one of them have autism. In my role of care taker, I facilitated daily learning activates, planning and preparing meals and maintaining chores around the house. I also taught specialized activities for the child with special needs, including teaching him some sign language (ASL), other means of communication and how to properly communicate feelings and desires. Healthy diet and life-skills are a passion of mine, and I have experience in preparing nutritious meals. I also have experience safely transporting children of all ages to various activities such as school, after-school activities, parks, zoo, and so fourth. I have assisted in cleaning, laundry, food prep, grocery shopping, and running errands for the families I have worked for. I have been an assistant teacher/helper in a preschool environment and have helped keep an orderly schedule and routine with many different ages of children. I have also fully and successfully potty trained a 2 year old from beginning to end and assisted in potty training other children
