About me
I am a Nanny who is a self-starter, noble, compassionate, loyal, and dedicated. I can certainly say that I have a very calm demeanor. I am loving, proactive, reliable, respectful, energetic, and well organized. With more than 15+ years of experience loving and caring for children, I have expertise in nurturing, guiding, teaching, and providing loving care to children of all ages. I stay focused on my responsibilities and am flexible with time, while being detail-oriented and well educated. I am a Nanny who is self-motivated and able to take direction well. I would be a stable figure and positive role model for the children. I aim to be faithful and a true support system for the parents. With an impressive background in providing outstanding care to children from infancy through high school, I am resourceful, kind, and have a caring demeanor. I am confident that I can provide excellent childcare and overall household support.
Additionally, I have experience in providing various household responsibilities, including preparing and cooking healthy meals and snack, baking, housekeeping, laundry, ironing, errand-running, and transportation. My childcare skills, along with my positive outlook and friendly nature position me to excel as a nanny. I am always looking for ways to help and pitch in and find areas that may need more attention. I love the feeling of helping families and being of service to others.
I also truly love to watch children learn and grow, while teaching them kindness, sharing, compassion and love. Learning through exploration, art, reading, and nature offers children a rich experience. I pride myself on creating a safe, positive and happy environment in which children can thrive. Some of my core competencies are being patient, trustworthy, organized, and creative. I hope to build a strong relationship and trust with my next family. With a strong foundation and open communication, the children can have an exceptional Nanny as they grow and mature. A team player who is punctual, dependable, and engaging. The chance to offer more insight into my qualifications would be most welcomed. Thank you kindly for your consideration. I look forward to speaking with you!

Activities & skills I love to teach & share with children...
There are many activities and skills I love teaching and sharing with children. There are many important ways ythat I can teach children how to be creative, sociable, and healthy through simple play. The activities and skills would depend on the ages of the children. It’s good to remember that doing everyday things, playing simple games, and simply interacting with the children including teaching and helping development. Loving the children in my care and experiencing the world with them. Very young children enjoy seeing and hearing books over and over again. I would encourage the baby to look at the pictures and touch the book. I would encourage a baby to imitate gestures by playing games like peek-a-boo and pat-a-cake. I would point out the names of things in the picture books and ask the child to point to them. Babies at the age of 6-12 months observe objects via their senses. They become incredibly interested in toys with bright colors and various textures. Especially if these toys also make a noise. With toddlers keeping activities short but regular is perfect for a toddlers development. Turn on beautiful music and dance with your toddler. Different kinds of music will encourage different movements. Toddlers love to throw and kick balls. Play dough helps develop both coordination and fine motor skills. Drawing with crayons is a wonderful way of developing skills. Toddlers love to build towers, Young children love to copy others and to dress up. They love to play with toys that allow them to copy household activities. Outdoor Activities, go bird watching, observe the birds colors, size, and behavior. Listen to it’s song and watch how they fly. Take a stroll with your senses, young children can gather acorns, pinecones, and colorful autumn leaves. Bring the outdoors in. Trips to museums and center centers. A trip to a berry farm, apple orchard, or a pumpkin patch. Teaches children where produce comes from. Gaze at the stars, even toddlers will enjoy gazing at the moon. Celebrate the sunrise and sunset, it happens everyday! Cuddle up with a pile of lovely books. Draw pictures, Balance games, Have a dance party, go for a visit to the library, do puzzles, play pretend kitchen, make believe act out a storybook, arts and crafts, make a puppet show, make a nature table, color and draw, get lost in building Legos, having adventures in the park, tell each other lots of stories, playing sports, bike riding, playing with friends, cooking and baking for older children.
