I’m a nanny because I absolutley love children and the reward that comes from influencing a young life. I easily relate to kids and feel that I am just naturally meant to interact with them. I am extremely creative, patient, and compassionate.
My past childcare experience I was a nanny for a special needs child from the age of 3 months- 18 months from Nov.2008-Dec. 2009. Before that, I taught 2-year-olds for 5 years in a preschool setting. Everyday I was the main teacher of 15 children. My daily curriculum included cognitive development, speech, language arts, spanish, sign language, art, music and motor skill as well as social and everyday-living development. My room was also the room were the children were potty trained. I trained all new teachers and my room was always used as the example for creativity, fun, organization, and above all care for the children. While at the same school I also worked with all ages from 6 weeks to Kindergarten. I am currently back at this position after returning in Jan. 2010. I have babysat since the age of 13 and I am very happy that that hobby has turned into a rewarding career of being able to help educate and nurture at the same time.
Additional comments I am CPR and First Aid certified. I also have studied child development/ psychology. I am well educated in music and art and their ability to aid in education. I have many techniques I have learned from working a preschool for such a long period of time, including sign language, beginning spanish, and multiple behavior applications.
