I have my certificate in ECE. I worked 17 years as a Professional Childcare Site Director for the YMCA. I have 4 grandchildren 8,4,2 and a 3 month old. I have Professional experience as a Nanny. My daily duties included general care for the children, I would run errands for the family- occasional grocery shopping, taking to gymnastics, sports, doctor appointments, park, library, etc. I helped with homework, light housework as far as KIDS CLOTHING, meal prep. I also clean up our area we mess up. I have several years of training that has covered every aspect of childcare. I enjoy art at science experiments, another in door activity can involve music play, flash cards, puzzles. I was CPR/FIRST Aid certified for 17 years, my certification has expired. I have an endless amount of experience and a huge heart for children. I enjoy what I do and find it to be an extremely rewarding experience. I'm totally engaging with the child/children, loving and patient. I believe that children need love and encouragement. I love exploring fun and creative ways for children to learn and grow hands-on in their early years. I will always go to extreme lengths to ensure the child's/children's needs are met. I also love animals, so pets are no problem. I have worked with multiple’s, special needs. I have worked with every age group. As the YMCA director I focused with ages 5-12. I have experience with all of baby needs such as feeding, bottle making (formula & breast milk), burping, diaper changing (cloth diaper friendly), supervised tummy time, achieving milestones, reading, playtime, (stacking, shapes, colors, sensory activities, lullabies, etc.), naptime, introducing solid foods and purees. I also have loads of experience with before and after care. I did this for 17 years. I have experience with autism, adhd , Asperger’s, explosive disorder. I’m a non-smoker. If you think this would be a good fit, feel free to message me, as I’m anxious to begin my journey helping and growing with a new family.🙏❤ My last job of 6 years ended cuz the GMA moved in full time. I live in Oakville. I can only accept CASH/Venmo/Apple pay. Payment is due weekly, not bi weekly. I can provide references upon request I’m looking for part- time or full- time. My husband is on a grant for seizures is why I can only accept cash. Venmo or Apple Pay. Just can’t be claimed on taxes. Carrie🥰

I’m currently a college student going into my 3rd year and have baby sat for the younger kids in my family but as they grown they don’t need me anymore. I’m hoping to work during the summer while I’m in St. Louis with flexible hours. I have a clean record (personal and car) and have worked a restaurant job for 4 years. I’m able to cook, clean, and make sure the kiddos have a good time. Would love you help out as much as I can for your family and help take something off your plate! Please reach out with any questions!
