A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ruth and i’m from Austin, Texas! I’m a sophomore at Texas State University, studying Theatre and I’m looking to work as a live in nanny for my winter break in New York (with the possibility to come back in the summer months as well)! I’ve been a babysitter and nanny since I was 10, and I love kids! I’ve worked with infants to age 12 and have experience with children with special needs as well. I’m passionate about education and love finding ways to bring that into daily activities. I’m an involved nanny. I don’t let your kids play alone! I’m with them, on the floor, building all those little legos by their side. I’m both CPR and First Aid certified and I’ve also completed a child development course. Can’t wait to meet you and your lovely kiddos!

More About Me

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

I’ve volunteered in a non-profit’s daycare, volunteered leading at my home church’s children’s Sunday school, and also babysit on a weekly basis in my spare time.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love finding hands on activities! Crafts, building legos and other similar toys, and anything artistic! I love reading as well! The outdoors are so important to me so I also am always finding reasons to be outside, even if that means doing those crafts outside!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being able to uphold and respect family patterns, values, and routines while adding fun and playful energy!

The most important part about being a nanny...

In my hometown, there are lots of hiking trails and creeks to swim in. One time, I was taking the 2 children I nannied, on a hike, and we got completely lost! We were picking flowers along the path to put in a vase for their mom, and completely lost track of where we were! 2 hours later and all thanks to handy dandy google maps, we made it out alive! We came home with lots of bug bites (thanks Texas humidity!) and lots of giggles. Honestly, one of my most memorable nanny moments to date.

Josefine H. - Seeking Work in New York

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in New York, NY: Josefine H.

I’m a 24-year old young woman who has always been keenly interested in child development and early childhood education. I am from Denmark and grew up in both Copenhagen.

I have worked as a nanny for children between the ages of 6 months to 12 years, with most being around the kindergarten/early elementary age (4-7). My duties as a nanny involved school/day-care pick-ups, preparing home-cooked meals, assisting with homework, and engaging in a bedtime routine.

My most recent and pertinent experience in childcare was when I served as a specialized teacher’s aide at a private elementary school in Denmark to a third-grade boy with dyslexia, autism, and mild Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
I consider myself an outdoorsy, go-getting, initiative-driven nanny and understand the importance of being active both mentally and physically. Thus, I am completely acclimated and ready for days of walking, reading, sports, arts, and language-learning.
