I have found the core of childcare is love and patience. I am a career Nanny with extensive experience with all ages. I have a calm and relaxed way of helping infants get into good sleep patterns that does not include “crying it out” before the first year. I am a fun and energetic Nanny who can keep pace with toddlers. I truly enjoy playing games, rolling on the floor, singing and being silly. I am down at the children’s level interacting and try to see the world from their prospective. I believe my job is to be a guide to little ones through this big world around them, by educating them but mostly making them feel safe and secure. I believe in books and the library and know the benefits of reading to children from very early on. I like to be out in the fresh air as much Read more as possible. I am a strong swimmer with training as a lifeguard; I enjoy all sports and will interact in age appropriate activities. I have respect for all lifestyles, religions, and cultures. I have good judgment and common sense. I am level headed, with first aid and CPR training. I am born and raised in New York and know my way around most neighborhoods. I am a good driver with perfect driving record and I am subway savvy. I do not smoke and am mature and drama free. I am an excellent cook and I do not mind pitching in to keep the home running smooth. Thank you for reviewing my profile!
