Greetings! I am a friendly, dog-loving, and open-minded young woman. I absolutely love children and teaching them would be a major plus! I love to travel around to gain more knowledge or just to familiarize myself to a new setting. My goal is to learn something new everyday, whether it might be the news, language, a recipe or more about a child's likes and dislikes. I am honest and approachable but I am also cautious in order to avoid danger. I hope to have the opportunity to spread positivity around your child! I am a non-smoker. I am CPR certified and I took a CPR/AED class. Coming from a bilingual family, I am fluent in Taishanese, Cantonese, and conversational Mandarin (three dialects of Chinese) and English. I can swim, ride a bike, jump rope, roller skate, and ice skate. I am aware that your child might be young, but I Read more am informing you on these skills if you ever need me to teach them.

Recently I needed a nanny to watch my children for a few days whilst my regular day care was closed. I am so happy we went with Shirley because she is so great with the kids and taking care of the house. I came home at the end of the day my kids were happy, my dishes washed and the room clean. She took them outside on walks, did chalk drawings as well as play games and coloring etc. She brought her own books to read them which they loved. She also fed them lunches and snacks and put my baby to nap. During all this she gave me constant updates and stayed after I came home to help me with supper. A real good choice and a huge help.
