A little bit about me

.

My name is Winnie (29F) and I was born and raised in Queens, NY. I went to Brooklyn Technical HS (STEM) and Buffalo State University. I am the eldest of 3 siblings and 8 cousins, all whom I see every weekend and have watched grow up before my eyes. As the oldest in the family, caretaking responsibilities were instilled in me since I was young.

I used to work in Great Neck for a beautiful family of 4. Their two daughters were age 6 and 8.

Duties included picking the girls up from school, helping them finish homework, enrichment exercises if requested (ex: puzzles or arts and craft) and then making them dinner until their parents got home. I can provide a list of meals I've prepared.

I drive a 2021 GLC 350 Mercedes Benz compact SUV with zero points or record on my license.

I have no criminal background. I am CPR and first aid certified. I am also TIPS certified (food safety). I have exceptional communication skills, keep my space tidy and your child's needs are my priority.

More About Me

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

.

I have cared for my siblings and cousins ever since I was young. My brother and I are 8 years apart, and I was helping my mom change his diapers when I was in the third grade.

A lot of my friends have recently become mothers, some of whom I've housed and hosted. My best friend Stella was visiting from Orlando with her 2 year old son not too long ago.

I did everything from unloading his stroller, setting up the car seat, carrying him, calming him, playing with him, feeding him, driving them around to sightsee, planning days for them.

I have also visited them in Orlando where we took him to multiple amusement parks and kids water parks.

Stella would always say I'd make a great mother.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

.

Parks are great for staying active and socializing, weather permitting. Eyes on the children at all times are a must.

Activities at home vary. I possess hobbies that I love to encourage in children, some which include (but not limited to):

• Reading
• Painting
• Swimming
• Tennis
• Dancing
• Gaming
• Piano

These are all activities I believe promotes neuroplasticity. Of course, anything requested will be priority (ex: help with homework, tutoring, SAT/SHSAT prep)

The most important part about being a nanny...

.

The most important part about this job, is not just to care for the kids for a few hours. It's to care enough about the kids to promote their growth and development as well! Are they being talked to and engaged with? Are they being nourished with healthy and whole foods? All these details matter.

It's not easy for parents to trust a stranger with their child. You are essentially becoming a part of the family.

My experience with special needs children...

.

Professionally, I do not have experience with special needs children, but I have babysat a friend's child that's been diagnosed with autism. Patience and kindness are virtues.

I'd love to learn more about caring for special needs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

.

When I used to care for the 2 daughters in Great Neck, we did a lot of arts and craft. There was one day we were playing with modeling clay. I was prompting them to make animals or flowers with the clay but the younger daughter surprised me a pink heart which I still have. They would share stories from school like crushes or something funny their friend said that day.

Overall, I felt like their third sister and I could sense the kids were starting to really consider me one as well. It was a nice feeling.
