Experience: As a child, my mother ran a day care business from our home and also the preschool Sunday School at my church, which I helped out at. In high school and college had various babysitting jobs. After college I worked a few temporary nannying jobs with infants and toddlers, one infant with special needs. Then worked as a live in full time nanny for two boys, aged 2 and 4. I've also helped busy mothers drive their older children to school/activities, and currently work part time for a family in Boulder with two older children.

Experience with the following age groups: Newborn to 14

Interests and hobbies:Typical Boulder hobbies include walking my dog, hiking, biking, camping, yoga, cooking and making raw desserts, gardening, painting, dancing, drinking nut milk lattes at Wonder.

Describe your childcare style:Calm, easygoing and fun, but sticks to the rules, playful and energetic, optimistic and always educational.

What activities do you like to do with children:I love being active and outside as much as possible..walking, hiking, playing, sports...really anything that involves moving under the sun! I also love to cook with kids and get them involved with meal preparation. I love art, painting, dancing..any kind of crafty projects. I like reading the younger ones, and doing mental exercises like games and puzzles. I am happy to take kids anywhere that is fun (just to the 11 year old and his friend to play laser tag..they beat me up!).

Why are you interested in working as a Nanny or Babysitter? I love working as a nanny because it doesn't feel like "work"! It's fun! I enjoy being able to do different tasks through out the day, usually some involve being active while others crafty. I love being silly with kids, because it makes me feel like one. I like being able to take them on adventures that I would already be doing, like exploring a near by park/trail, or going to a museum. And it teaches me a lot about children, and one day I hope to have my own!

What qualities are important in a Nanny or Babysitter?Dependable, trustworthy, loving and caring, healthy, energetic and fun!
