Hi, my name is Aydriel Maxwell, and I'm a compassionate and experienced nanny based in Springfield, Illinois. I am available M-F from 7am - 10pm and Sat & Sun from 8am - 7pm. What truly sets me apart is my extensive experience working with individuals across a wide age range, from newborns all the way to adults up to 75 years old. This stems from my background as a Support Teacher and DSP Supervisor, where I developed a deep understanding of diverse needs and effective communication strategies. This experience has also provided me with training and practical application in conscious discipline techniques, de-escalation strategies and positive reinforcement, which I believe are essential for fostering a safe and respectful environment for children. I am confident I can help guide my charges to choose proper behavior and maintain a safe environment. My approach to childcare is rooted in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment, encouraging independence, promoting learning through play. I am skilled at meal prep, age-appropriate activities, homework help, light housekeeping. I also have experience caring for multiple children at once, with experience planning activities for each stage of development. I am patient, responsible, and dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and enriching experience for the children in my care. I have reliable transportation and a safe driving record. I am CPR and First Aid certified. My rate is $20 per hour, and I am available to provide references upon request. I have a profile picture available and look forward to connecting with families who are seeking a dedicated and caring nanny!

My family has been fostering children since I was in 4th grade, and we've always had small children in the house that I've helped to raise/take care of. Taking after my mom, I LOVE children and have strong maternal instincts! Besides constantly helping out with kids around the house, I also have babysat for several different children in the past, as well as volunteering for Eco Camp two summers ago, where I was in charge of a medium sized group of children aged 5-12. Besides being able to help out a family in need, I'm hoping to earn some money to help out at college during the semester, as well as get quality time with little kids.
