Meet Keisha

  • Comfortable with pets

Hello I’m Keisha! I’m excited and looking forward to getting to know you and your family. My mother has been a nanny for over 10 years and both my grandmothers have been a nannies for over 20 years. I've always been keen to working with children. Let’s just say it runs in the family, I’m currently in school to become a nurse and plan on specializing in pediatrics. For the past six years, I've worked as a part time babysitter/adult-helper for two families. My first family was the Thomas family who lived in Virginia. They had a new born daughter and a 1 year old son at the time. The youngest one was born during the first year I worked there. I worked with her 5 days a week for the first 4 years of her life. During my years with the Thomas family, I have traveled with them to Read more Florida and New York. I also stayed with the children overnight many times. Afterwards I babysat for the Hyacinthe family for two years in New York. This family had two twin boys that were age 4. ■ Responsibilities Watched and looked after all the children’s activities when the parents were away. Established positive relationships with the children by designing creative games and activities, so that the children could learn and have fun at the same time. Prepared meals in the absence of parents and ensured that the children ate on time as per their daily routine. Made sure that the children enjoyed their day by taking them out for walks and to parks; kept a close eye on their activities. Maintained a healthy and safe environment for the children and made sure that only permitted people came to visit the children. Supervised homework. Completed light house work. I can go on a rant about what qualities would make me a great babysitter for you but it would be better for you to experience it firsthand.
