I am a college graduate with my own transportation. I would like to help out a family one or two days a week until early August. I have more than 10 years of experience working with children as a nanny, babysitter and volunteer. I'm willing to go the extra mile if one parent is sick or out of town. I take my work seriously. My job is about more than feeding your children and keeping them safe. I am consistent, fair and honest with children. I always follow through on consequences, but I know when a child needs extra love rather than an extra scolding. I work with children to help them gain valuable life skills, from simple things such as how to share their toys (or put away the toys they are not comfortable sharing), to skills that will have lifelong benefits, such as learning how to wait, emotional Read more management, and empathy.
