ABOUT ME I am a professional nanny looking for my next amazing family. I have experience with all ages, through babysitting, working at childcare centers with ages infant through 12 years, and student teaching in a third-grade class. I have spent a year and a half working at an emergency foster care center where I cared for children ages 2-12 with various special needs, including behavioral, emotional, cognitive, and physical challenges. I play piano and speak Spanish, so music and language are part of my everyday interactions. I am competent and confident in my ability to handle any situation that arises. In emergencies I am calm and able to think rationally, putting the safety of the child first. Overall, after working with literally hundreds of children, the most important thing I have learned is that each child has unique needs and I must constantly adjust my methods to create the Read more best environment for each individual child. My greatest attribute is my love for children.
