Hi, and welcome to my profile! If you are reading this, I feel it is safe to assume that you are looking for a reliable, patient, and compassionate person to care for your child(ren). If so, look no further. You have come to the right place! My experience caring for children spans over the past 12+ years. From the age of 10 years old I have worked with numerous children between the ages of birth to 11 years old. I have worked as an assistant in my mother's old little neighborhood daycare center, as a sitter in my old church's nursery center during Sunday services, as a private nanny, and as a date-night or "mom just needs a day to herself" babysitter. From my experience, I have acquired a great many skills, including but not limited to: basic children's education, managing hostile behavior in a polite manner, sensory play with Read more a heavy focus on the arts, outdoor activities and keeping children active and providing healthy outlets for all of that pent-up energy, newborn and infant care, basic medication administration and first aid, cooking, and other light household chores. I feel very lucky to have played a role in the nurturing and educating of our future generations, and am eager to meet the next family with whom I can provide quality care for their children. For more information, please don't hesitate to contact me via messaging on this site. I have an official resume upon request.
