Hi my name is Taylor Witt, I am 21 years old, and ready to work with you as your nanny today! I graduated from Warren Township High School with a 3.8 grade point average and there attended many activities and sports. Band, Swimming, and Color guard were my three main affairs. Being a part of these have really shaped me to the person that I am today. Part of being an active member of a team calls for leadership skills, which eventually led me to becoming captain of both my swim and color guard teams, and section leader as a saxophone player. While I was on the swim team, I loved swimming so much, why not teach it to others? I became a swim instructor, and loved every minute of it. I became so fond and attached to these children, that when I left high school I wanted to find Read more something that I could be more involved in that touched the lives and minds of these amazing kids, just like they have touched mine. That is when I realized becoming a nanny would be a great opportunity to do this. On my journey, I have learned that being a nanny is not only about watching how-to-videos and using "super-nanny" techniques, but as well as understanding and LOVING the minds of these incredible little people. I do not believe in yelling at children in any way only showing them lots of love! I have now been a babysitter and a nanny for many years and a certified Red Cross Care Giver! Being a part of so many activities made me a very organized person and a very great communicator. I can also do the basics like cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. Most importantly, I am super loving and extremely honest. I keep the children entertained, give them my full attention, am very patient, and have lots of planned activities that the children and I have tons of fun doing! I can not wait to meet the parents of these wonderful children, please take your time in meeting me because I promise I will not let you down.
