I hope you will consider me! I truly love caring for children, and nothing would make me happier than to take care of your little ones. I may be a bit older than the other nannies you are considering- I am 48. I have extensive experience caring for infants and older children as well. I am a mother of three, and have worked as a nanny in the past. I have Red Cross Infant CPR certification. It is my firm belief that it is critical for your childen's well being and healthy growth to have an attentive, calm, and in tune caregiver. I love the work of Doctors Stephen Porges and Allan Schore. They are fantastic at explaining the science behind what our children need from us. Infants and toddlers need to see their emotions mirrored in their caregivers' faces. I promise if you entrust your childen to my care, Read more they will have my full attention- I will not be distracted by social media on a smartphone. You and your children will know I am 100% there for them. I also love the work of Dr. William Sears and his wife Martha Sears. With all of my heart I agree with them that early attachments establish the roots for healthy relationships later in life. I will respect and react to your children's needs, and value the connection we form. I promise if you hire me to take care of your children, I will stay with your family as long as you need me. Your children will form an attachment to me, and I will honor that. I am kind, friendly, and compassionate. I model appropriate behavior. I currently work two or three afternoons a week at Girls Inc, a national non profit where we inspire all girls to be strong, smart, and bold. If you hire me, I will help at Girls Inc only on the weekends, or on days you do not need me. For the past ten years I have been working Sundays only in the nursery at Jesse Lee Church in Ridgefield. Over the years, and especially from working at Girls Inc, I have learned a slew of fun activities and safe science experiments your children and I can enjoy when they are old enough. Hopefully we can make some homemade playdough ASAP! I love silly songs, and will play any games your little ones want! I am eager to help your children explore their creativity. Although I am older, I am fit, healthy and very active. I love the great outdoors, and am eager to help your kids explore! I very much hope you will consider me. I wish you the best in your search.
