Experience: I started babysitting in early high school and have recently been employed by a family for four amazing years watching two little girls. I'm also a director at an achievement center that works with childhood learning and behavioral disorders, thus I have experience and strategies for working with difficult behaviors. My training has also taught me much about child development, and what things to do/avoid to ensure optimal brain development throughout childhood.

Experience with the following age groups: I've worked as a nanny for children ages 6 months- 9 years and worked with ages 4-17

Interests and hobbies:I love living a natural, active, healthy lifestyle, and could talk about nutrition and cooking for hours! I'm also a talented musician and artist. In my free time you can find me playing music, making art, reading, working out, practicing yoga, hiking, or going on outdoor adventures.

Describe your childcare style:I've always had a natural connection with kids, and they tend to work very well with me. When interacting with children I'm the perfect mix of patient and fun. I tend to let kids choose activities and play along with them or make up new exciting ways to play ordinary games. If kids are bored I'm quick to offer a variety of fun, creative, indoor and outdoor activities. I don't mind playing outside, getting dirty, or getting on kids' level. I'm incredibly patient and never get upset with or yell at children, although I do hold compassionate boundaries. If a child is struggling with something, I will be patient and give them tips to help them figure it out for themselves, instead of just doing things for them. In the past, my nanny shift usually starts with kids running to the door (or even down the driveway) screaming my name in excitement... and I do it right back! Working with kids lights up my life and warms my heart, and it is always a true pleasure to interact with them.

What activities do you like to do with children:Common activities I do with children include: creative play, arts and crafts, playing outside, going to the park, make believe, reading, learning games, homework, baking and having fun!

Why are you interested in working as a Nanny or Babysitter? I'm interested in working as a Nanny because I absolutely love kids!

What qualities are important in a Nanny or Babysitter?I believe that a nanny needs to be fun, exciting, and creative, while at the same time holding compassionate boundaries. They also need to be patient, kind, and loving. In addition, a nanny should be responsible, proactive, flexible, and a great multi-tasker..

Additional comments:I look forward to meeting you!
