Hello I am new to the area and am looking to establish a connection with a family looking for a part time nanny or babysitter. I will be in graduate school part time beginning January 2016. I have had a variety of experiences teaching (formally and informally), babysitting, and taking care of children for over 13 years. I am comfortable working with kids of all ages as well as those with autism and other disabilities. Over the years I have also been a camp counselor, youth group adviser, dance teacher, and a swim instructor. I relate well to kids' natural curiosity and love to explore with them! I have a strong background in child development and social and emotional wellness. I will happily provide references, resume, etc upon request. Thanks : )
