I truly enjoy being a part of children's lives-teaching them about the world around them, training them to be productive members of society, how to be kind and caring, keeping them safe and instilling a sense of personal responsibility.
Letting children explore what makes them happy and guiding them to take the lead in what they find interesting is so fufilling.
I love being a part of families. I pride myself on being helpful around the house and always supporting Mom and Dad.
I chose child care as my career. This is not a stepping stone to something bigger and better-this is what I want to do. I enjoy creating my own day, planning activities, coordinating playdates and helping to run an efficient home. I love that one unsolicited hug or smile from a little one can turn my day around. I'm fascinated by how they see the world around them.
I am responsible for the complete care of my nanny families' children. Every families' needs are unique. An example of duties may include:
- tending to each child’s basic physical needs
- meal planning and preparation
- laundry and clothing care
- organization of play activities and outings
- providing behavioral guidelines and disciplining in an appropriate manner
- provide transportation when required
- actively and reliably communicates with parents
