Experience: My first experience with caring for children began with my son, now in his twenties and in the Navy. After years of working long hours away from my son, I decided to change careers and open a licensed in-home child care since I have always loved children. After two years I was given the opportunity and pleasure of working as a nanny for the next 12 years! Most currently I’ve worked for a family caring for two children under 5 for a little over four years. During the course of my career as a Nanny I have cared for age groups ranging from newborn/infants to teenagers. I also worked for a day program for people with special needs helping them achieve goals to become more independent. I am passionate about caring for children. I enjoy working with parents as well. A few of my strengths are that I am insightful and have the ability to assess the needs of a family and fill in those gaps that make life easier and more peaceful for parents. Children warm up to me very fast which makes for a smooth transition for the family. I love teaching them and facilitating fun and enriching activities that aid in their development physically, socially and emotionally. Being a nanny and working with families has truly been the most rewarding career choice!

Experience with the following age groups: Newborns, infants, toddlers, school age, and teens.

Interests and hobbies:I love gardening, hiking, biking, outdoor activities, cooking, baking, crotchet and reading.

Describe your childcare style:Loving, fun, active, and hands on. I have a warm and loving approach but I am able to create healthy boundaries when it comes to discipline. I am open minded, understanding, and flexible.

What activities do you like to do with children:Educational and developmental activities including creative arts and crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and baking. I love take them to extra-curricular activities such as sports practice, music and dance lessons. I also enjoy tapping into community resources libraries, museums, etc. I believe in keeping children active, happy, and having fun learning and exploring!

Why are you interested in working as a Nanny or Babysitter? I have worked with children for years. It has been the most rewarding career and I feel working with children is my gift!

What qualities are important in a Nanny or Babysitter?It is important that a Nanny be responsible, understanding, patient, kind and loving. It is also important to be friendly, happy, outgoing, communicative, and able to easily navigate family interactions. A nanny should have knowledge of changing stages of development in order to facilitate fun and educational experiences to foster growth. Most importantly, a nanny must love working with children!
