A little bit about me

I have a very strong passion for working with children and as I am completing my Bachelor's degree in education, I have chosen jobs where I am able to interact with them every day. I have several experiences, including with Special Ed children! Throughout high school and college, I have worked at a daycare to help develop my teaching skills. In fall, I was accepted into the Disney College Program for an internship and moved to Florida in January to work for Disney and continued to interact with children by making magic for them! Because of the pandemic, I was sent home early and this was when I became a nanny. Two families from my daycare were looking for care as daycare closed & reached out to me. From March - now, I have had the most amazing experience spending my time with these two precious boys. To keep a consistent routine for them, I did some lesson planning, which included art, reading, & more. My hope is to align my passion for children with a family who is seeking a nanny!

More About Me

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

I have worked in a daycare setting for 5 years. In addition to this, for my college education, I have done many different clinicals in school districts. Most recently, I worked with a first grade class!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Childrens imaginations are what makes them so unique! I love simply supporting their imagination through playing with them. To help develop large and small motor, I will incorporate art projects, reading, or any fun activities!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Creating and maintaining a safe environment for children is my top priority. In addition to this, developing meaningful and trustworthy relationships is crucial for myself and the children.

My experience with special needs children...

I have grown up with a cousin who is severely autistic. He is the root of why I chose to become an educator. We have had a deep connection since little on and knowing I can help positively impact all children, no matter the differences, makes working with children so rewarding.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My nanny experience has been nothing short of amazing. Rather than a specific moment, my favorite thing is the relationship I have developed with the children. We are already planning to still go to the park or have lunch dates once a month even when I am not nannying them. The lasting relationship has been a positive thing for all of us!

Tami B. - Seeking Work in Lakewood Ranch

Live-In Part-Time Nanny Available in Lakewood Ranch, FL: Tami B.

I am a mom of two amazing kids 19&17. I was a stay-at-home mom for 17 years before I lost my husband 5 years ago. I went back to work full time, but I so miss my calling of taking care of children. I loved being a full-time mom and would love to take care of your kiddos. I am 54 but very active and love the outdoors. I love pets I have 3 dogs. LOL - I am very busy but manage my time very good. I am a natural care giver - I enjoy taking care of others. My career is in healthcare - I love it.

Sierra H. - Seeking Work in Lakewood Ranch

Live-In Full-Time Nanny Available in Lakewood Ranch, FL: Sierra H.

I've been babysitting children of all ages since I was 15. I volunteered at a local Daycare in high school and I covered my older sister's nannying job for a 6-month-old and a 2 1/2-year-old when she was not able to work. I have a sister who is 5 years younger than me, so growing up I was always there assisting my mom with what she needed which taught me a lot about kids. At school, I am a Psychology major and a Human Development minor and one of the things we spend a lot of time learning about are children, their development, and what type of children need what type of things. I love being outdoors, and I have a young soul so I can keep kids entertained for hours! I have grown up playing sports, and I have spent lots of time volunteering for rec sports programs. For three years my sister, my cousin and I owned and ran our own youth basketball camp called MSS Elite. Also, I really enjoy doing work around the house, which is definitely a plus. I am looking forward to hearing back from you! Thank you!
