Hi, I'm Andi : ) I am 29, an RN, and a Christian caregiver. I don't plan to have children of my own for personal reasons, but I very much enjoy caring for and growing kids God's way! I am very engaging with children as I make it a priority to create a structured schedule in which I personally interact with them by playing games, creating art or music, reading together, or being active outdoors. I am very knowledgeable about nutrition, psychology, and holistic health for all ages. I have the patience and enthusiasm to help children develop positive thinking patterns and problem solving abilities in everyday activities. I believe that children deserve to be listened to and loved in parents' absence, not simply monitored while distracted with mindless TV or video games. Rather, I enhance children's global understanding and enjoyment of life during my time with them, and I Read more find GREAT JOY in doing so! I am a responsible driver, non-smoker, and am certified in BLS and PALS. As an ICU nurse, I have trained myself to quickly analyze and react to emergencies and difficult situations with the most appropriate corrective action. Of note, prevention is always the best policy, and I am detail oriented and responsible to preclude any problems.
