Hello, I prefer to be addressed as Nikki, and I am a certified emergency medical technician. What sets me apart! 1. I have 15 years of professional experience working with children ranging from newborns to teenagers. 2. My passion for caring for children is profound. I have worked with approximately 55 families with another child care agency outside of and I have developed strong bonds with the 19 repeated families (out of the 55 families), often being considered part of their families. 3. I am always on time! As long as you need my services, I will always show up! I am committed to the families I work for. I am honest, patient, nurturing, protective, attentive, and responsible. I don’t just see this as a gig! Every child who is under my care is treated with respect and love. 4. I emphasize the importance of active learning and play over screen time. My approach is both interactive and engaging, as I enjoy organizing fun and educational activities, including but not limited to, arts and crafts, at home play, trips to the library, museums, and parks, language development for infants and homework assistance for school age children. Also, I offer support with light housekeeping and meal preparation centered around the children to ensure the household runs smoothly. In addition, I engage in various activities with the children. FOR INFANTS/NEWBORNS, I begin language exposure as early as 1 month, which involves reading to them, teaching vocabulary and sounds, and using visual aids like pictures and colors. I also assist with sleep training, bathing, feeding, and diaper changes. FOR TODDLERS, I support potty training, promote speech development, conduct spelling exercises, read books, teach phonics and writing, and introduce basic numbers and math concepts. 5. I pride myself on being an effective communicator. I prioritize open communication with the parents and children to foster a positive and trusting relationship. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to provide exceptional care for your children.
