Find experienced child care providers in Alexander, AR

Hi, my name is Taylor, I'm 19 years old and currently studying psychology at the University of Central Arkansas with the goal of becoming a child therapist. I've always enjoyed working with kids and creating fun, safe, and nurturing environments for them to grow and learn. While I may be young, I am responsible, caring, and fully committed to earning your trust as someone who will take great care of your children. I take my responsibilities seriously and understand how important it is to create a safe and engaging environment for kids. I'm dependable, punctual, and great at following directions to ensure your family's routine is respected. My coursework and career focus on child development give me an understanding of how kids think, feel, and thrive, which helps me connect with them and handle situations with patience and care. I grew up in a close-knit family and understand the importance of trust and communication in childcare. My goal is to provide peace of mind for parents while creating a fun and caring environment for your kids.

I have a bachelors degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Sociology. I've been a nanny, for a 3-year-old boy who was visually impaired, and for sisters, a newborn and 15 months. Off and on I nannied for a family with three rambunctious 3 year olds. I've also nannied a 10-year-old for a summer, along with many other babysitting jobs here and there over the years. I spent time co-leading the youth group at my church for a year. I also have other professional experience working in a children's psychiatric facility, ages ranging from 4-17. I've also been the Assistant Site Director at an after school program for children, ranging from Kindergarten-8th grade. Most recently though, I was a caretaker for a girl with Cerebral Palsy, and a Household Manager for a separate family. I just want to show your kids some fun and love when you aren't able to be there to do it yourself. :)

I am a Nanny, with over 15 year's of experience with children of all ages. I am also a mother of three and a grandmother of five, who all are today, successful adults. It is my love for children that has drawn me to this profession simply because of the joy they bring into my life. Once they get to know me, they enjoy my company as much as I enjoy theirs. I have approximately five year's of experience with an autistic child, with whom a close bond developed while in my care, that still remains between us today. My strongest attribute has always been my ability to encourage and motivate children which I have found to be a key in building a childs positive sense of self worth. I believe that, Everything the future holds for all children begins with how they view and value themselves. I am engaged with the child based on thier individual level of understanding, using activities, such as, crafts to encourage creativity and imagination, regular visits to the, to encourage a love for books and knowledge, the importance of physical activity, such as, playing at the park, and daily walks, to encourage a love for the outdoors, baking to encourage a love for the culinary. I make it a point to direct my focus on positivity in every situation which provides a sense of happiness and acceptance rather than the fear of failure. I am an avid rock hound and I also enjoy walking, hiking, camping, swimming and gardening. I have a remarkable ability in connecting with children that stems from being compassionate and kind with a strong sense to nurture and love. I have still to this day have strong relationships and close bonds with more than one of the family's from my past employment, meeting up with them and taking the child who was once in my care to go do something fun like a movie at the theatr, bowling, water park, six flags, etc so we can continue to keep the relationship, that we have built ongoing and strong. It is these families that provide me a strong and reputable reference.
