Opal mya B., Babysitter in New Canaan, CT 06840 with 25 years of paid experience

I am a loving child care professional with over 20 years of professional child care experience. I recognize the individuality of children, and attempt to create an environment that fosters their trust, self esteem, and independence. Realizing the various stages of child development, I work cooperatively with the family to engage their children in positive and constructive activities. I provide the type care that I myself would want for my children, playing with them, and giving them encouragement and guidance as they discover the world around them. Along with my 20 years of professional experience, I can also offer you: * An Associate Degree in Early Childhood Education * A Certificate in Basic Child Care * A Certificate in Infant & Toddler * A Certificate in Child Care Administration * CPR & First Aid * SIDS Training * Child Care Credentials 1 & 2 * A TB test and Physical Examination * Certification in Massage Therapy * A Background Check * Excellent References   I also have lots of other various documented child care related training, and am a member of the (INA) International Nanny Association. I can provide a portfolio documenting my experience, education, training, and also provide excellent references. I am very affectionate, nurturing, and absolutely confident that I can create a loving environment for your children to learn and grow in.  Thank you so much for your consideration!
