A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Peter. I’ve been a nanny for about four years now, but I’ve been working in childcare since I was 12 - a child myself! I have degrees in Early Childhood Education and Studio Art, as well as several certificates in education. I graduated from UCF in December, and the special needs baby I’ve been taking care of is getting a 24/7 nurse, so I’m looking for a new (hopefully full-time) position to start ASAP. I am certified in adult and pediatric CPR, First Aid, and AED!

I have experience with kids two months all the way through teenagers, though I do usually work with birth-third grade as that’s the age my degree focused on. I love art, music, anime, reading, and I’m a competitive figure skater!

"Peter is a kind, knowledge and caring nanny. He has become part of our family in the time that he's been with us. He is loving, nurturing, patient and you can tell is passionate about children. His communication skills are too knotch. He does whatever is needed to help my medically complex son and us as a family. He's gone to hospitals and doctor visits with us. He takes my son to his weekly therapies. When my son was hospitalized, he was right there. He's amazing at adapting to my son's ever changing needs. He has the biggest heart. I trust him with my son wholeheartedly. I know Peter has his best interest at heart and would do anything to keep him safe. The only reason that Peter will be ending his employment with us is because we're looking into 24/7 in home nursing care. It breaks my heart that he won't be here with us next year. Peter is capable, smart, quick thinking, and on top of things. You won't regret hiring him. He's a gem."

More About Me

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

I have been babysitting since 2008 and started assistant teaching the younger sabbath school classes at my church around the same time. I was a substitute teacher [phone number hidden], when I began working as a nanny, and have volunteered in several different programs centered around educating children.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy reading, doing arts and crafts, singing, swimming, taking walks around the neighborhood, finding cool rocks or critters, riding bikes, playing all sorts of games, and otherwise having fun!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is helping a child learn and grow into the best possible human they could be. Not just with academic knowledge, but morals, manners, and practical skills as well.

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with hard of hearing children while teaching, been a babysitter/“big sibling” to a little boy with a mood disorder, and my current position is nanny to a little boy with many special needs. His care includes glucose checks, therapy three times a week (Physical, Occupational, and Feeding), staying with him during hospital stays, surgery aftercare, and he has doctors appointments very frequently. So I have experience with physical, mental, and sensory disabilities.

The most important part about being a nanny...

From summer 2019 to Spring 2021, I worked with two little girls. They had gone through several nannies, and the older child had a really hard time letting anyone in because her caregiver was constantly changing. When I started with them, she would even let me touch her. Now, whenever I go back to babysit them or even just hang out when they ask, she throws herself into my arms when I get there. I love teaching because I love helping kids grow and become the best version of themselves - seeing a child heal so much and go from a lonely, guarded five year old to a happy, open seven year old is such an amazing experience.
