Experience: My child care experience began when I was 15 years old when I started my own child care program in my neighborhood to help parents with their children after school and on the weekends. When I was in college I worked at The Ohio State University's Day Care Center. Here I gained experience with infants, toddlers, and preschool aged children. One year ago I worked as a nanny for 6 months helping a mother with her newborn while also doing household chores and errands. This past year I was working as a travel nanny for a high-profile family exploring the world on their yacht while I took care and ensured the safety of their five children.

Experience with the following age groups: Infant, Toddler, School Age, and Teens.

Interests and hobbies:I have a passion for travel and exploring. Learning and discovering new things fuel me! Every time I work with children, I feel like I learn so much from them and that is really important to me! I really enjoy learning about international food and trying to perfect new recipes. I enjoy staying as active as possible while exercise and yoga have always been a big part of my life. I enjoy being outside and soaking up the sun while going on long hikes with my dog. In my spare time I try to keep creative and enjoy making my own jewelry and craft projects.

Describe your childcare style:I would describe my childcare style as creative, nurturing, loving, and attentive. I put a lot of planning into the activities that I do with the children to help them express their selves through play, activities, and projects. It is very important for me to listen intently to the interests of the children so I can plan accordingly and cater to their interests. I cannot stress how important I feel that creativity is for children. I also encourage children to make their own decisions and learn independence.

What activities do you like to do with children:Getting outside and exploring nature is one of my favorite things to do with kids! Introducing them to kid friendly activities in the kitchen like making home-made play do, cracking eggs, ants on a log, cookies, etc. Role playing and letting their imaginations run wild. Photography, painting, and gardening. Keeping them active while going on bike rides, soccer, yoga, swimming, etc.

Why are you interested in working as a Nanny or Babysitter? I feel like I connect well with children because my inner child comes out when I am with them. I also love watching children learn and discover new things everyday and at the same time I love learning new things from the children. It is nice to go home at the end of the day and feel like you impacted somebody’s life.

What qualities are important in a Nanny or Babysitter?Nurturing, patient, silly, authoritative, energetic, engaged, and educational.

Additional comments:I think it is very important to get to know the family really well when caring for their children. I like to get a good understanding of how the parents run the household because consistency in a child's life is key. I am willing to help out with additional tasks beyond child care which include: errands, grocery shopping, meal prepping, packing lunches, cleaning, laundry, etc.
