About me

My goal as a Child Care Provider is to be the best that I can be while caring for, teaching, molding and making sure that the children in my care are happy. I find it very rewarding to work with children whether it is in the classroom or in the home. This interaction allows me to build a close relationship with them and to also see their developmental, academic, and personal growth. Another goal as a Child Care Provider is to dedicate my time, to provide individual and experienced attention as well as to provide a safe and secure stimulated environment for the children in my care. I want to be seen as a source of encouragement and support and give them every opportunity to succeed.

I find it rewarding when taking care of children because I genuinely care about and love children, and I enjoy their company immensely. I believe in creating a positive, happy environment for children, one in which they feel protected and can thrive. Creating a bond of trust and friendship and being a positive role model in children’s lives are fundamental in building a strong loving relationship between nanny and child. I believe that I can be that role model by instilling in them life-long lessons, skills and discipline and lots of love. Each child’s personal health and safety is of utmost importance to me and I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment for the children in my care.

My past and present employers have been happy with my work and have often complimented me on my expertise in taking care of young children. I have good organizational and communication skills, which I believe are among the most important skills for a nanny. Overall I am fun, empathetic, loving, caring, honest and reliable. I am also charismatic, creative and energetic!
