A little bit about me

I am the oldest of 8 and started working in childcare and as a nanny when I was in high school. Since then, I graduated summa cum laude with my B.S. in psychology and worked as a children’s case manager for 3 years. This involved teaching social and emotional regulation skills to children ages 2-17 with severe emotional disturbances, and included a year of working full time in a therapeutic preschool classroom. I have experience handling a wide variety of extreme behaviors and am certified in CPR/First Aid as well as Crisis Prevention and Intervention. I also love teaching and would be able to tutor and help with homework.

More About Me

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

In high school, I worked as a childcare provider with children under 5. I was also a nanny for a family with 6 children ages 2-11. I volunteered as a camp counselor every summer in high school with children ages 9-14. For the last 3 years, I have volunteered at a summer camp for kids ages 8-17.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love engaging in imaginary play inside and outside. Kids especially love chasing games outside. I like taking kids to the park and keeping them active. Playing games indoors is always good for teaching social skills and getting them to sit still. I’m usually up for whatever makes them happy as long as it’s safe and allowed!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Making kids feel safe, seen, important, and loved.

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with high needs children in mental healthcare for almost 4 years now. I have experience with children with ADHD, anxiety, autism, conduct disorder, ODD, and trauma. I feel well prepared to handle any behaviors or struggles a child may have.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Any time a kid has told me they love me or showed that they felt safe with me. I believe you have to earn a kid’s trust and that they can tell whether or not someone is genuine and really cares about them.

Brooke M. - Seeking Work in Bel Aire

Babysitter Available in Bel Aire, KS: Brooke M.

Hi!! My name is Brooke and I am 19 years old currently a sophomore at WSU studying psychology! I work a part time job at Scooter's Coffee so I can save up to hopefully soon move out and help with my schooling. I am the oldest out of four siblings so I definitely have some care taking experience. I also worked at a summer daycare dealing with preschoolers to 3rd graders which I feel was an amazing experience for me. I strive to be good and put my best effort in anything I take part in so this job will be no different, when children are in my care I treat them as if my siblings were still babies, although they aren't they always will be to me of course. One of my hobbies include going to concerts, I am a big music lover so anytime I am fortunate to attend an artist or group I love I'm there. I also and trying to pick up the guitar! When I'm not in school I am working or just enjoying some time by myself. With that being said I hope you enjoyed getting to know me thank you for reading!
