UNAVAILABLE UNTIL OCTOBER 2015 I have been a child care provider since the age of 14 and have always loved working and caring for children. I have extensive experience in the areas of babysitting, full-time nanny, part-time nanny, church nursery work, and as a mother's helper. I have been a nanny for a wonderful family for the past 3 years and have loved caring for their two sweet boys (currently 4 years and 7 months old), I recently moved to the Saint Louis area from Virginia and that is the only reason I am looking for a new position. I have experience with meal planning/preparation, potty training, laundry, basic housekeeping, encouraging good sleep schedules and eating habits, creating fun and educational activities, and caring for sick children. I am a firm believer that the TV is not a part of child care! I enjoy teaching children through reading books, interactive Read more games on their level, and engaging them in outdoor activities that can stimulate their bodies and minds to learn more every day. I love the joy of teaching young children new things and watching them as they grow and learn more about life. I believe there is no greater influence that we can have in this world, than that of our impact on the life of a young child. I greatly appreciate and enjoy the opportunity that parents give me to be with their children, it is a gift I do not take for granted.
