Every child is an individual and unique and should be treated as such. I am patient and like to see the kids grow. I believe that in order to truly understand what the kids are going through, you have to be there with them along the way. This means playing on the floor with them, understanding the sports they are involved in, and understanding the homework that is given to them. I will respect the parents rules and boundaries. It is important for me to discipline, when necessary, in a way that is consistent with the overall parenting style. I will accept guidance and suggestions from the parents in terms of what are effective disciplinary actions. I understand that this is a team effort and respect will be given on all sides.

I love to do arts and crafts, put on dance parties and play dress up. When pets are in the home, I like to include them in activities where ever possible. I try to design activities around their interests. Why are you interested in working as a Nanny or Babysitter? I am interested in working with children because they are pure. They bring the purest energy to life. They have the biggest imaginations and the best questions. I absolutely enjoy the expression on the children's faces when they learn something new or accomplish something they have been working on. I love seeing the young kids coming into their personality and the older kids understand the harder facts of life. I enjoy creating an environment where the children can grow, learn, and experience new things in a safe environment.
