About me
I believe the simple act of caring and nurturing is heroic. Growing up and even now I realized that I have always valued the feelings of others and treated people in a manner I wish to be treated. Raised by my grandma I never lack love, affection, or attention hence I have so much to give as a nanny. Grandma made certain also that I acquired an education s which I pursued up to the tertiary level acquiring a degree in Geography with a minor in History. I have also done nanny training and acquired certification through NDWA and Cornell University and CPR, First-aid and AED certification as a professional nanny.
I have been a professional nanny for the past 5-6 years. My first nannying job involved a family of 4 children all of which I nannied. This laid the foundation of my amazing career journey. In this capacity, I took care of 3 months old, 2 years old, 4 years old, and 6 years old. My second nannying job was a shared nanny position with 3 girls, 3 months old, 5 months old, and a 2-year-old. My third job was with a family with 2 children, a 2-year-old boy and a 2 months old baby. My fourth job is now my current, which is expected to end soon, is also share nannying for two boys. I have also done date nights and weekend nannying. In all capacities, I did diaper changes, feeding, tummy-time, naptime, playdates, potty training, homework assistance, library visits, park plays, arts and crafts, baths, cleaning and organizing for the kids just to name a few.
Being a nanny, knowing that I am contributing to the growth and development of the future generation brings me great joy. I know that the love, care, and compassion that I have shown these children will transcend for generations to come. I naturally care so I feel comfortable and confident performing my daily tasks. I am a young mother and there are so many positive parenting skills I have acquired from these families. I love the outdoors and exploring so being a nanny comes with all this and more, as my babies and I go on our daily adventures.
