I love working as a sitter and nanny because I love kids. As a teenager I began babysitting my much younger sister, as well as a 2 year old girl named Christina, and absolutely fell in love with the job. Children view and explore the world around them with a wonder and excitement that is refreshing. During my time as a childcare provider, I have worked with a wide range of ages, from 3 months to 12 years old. I also have experience working with special needs children, such as those who are technology dependent, those who fall within the autism spectrum, and those with psychiatric or developmental disorders. I am able to adapt to changing conditions and various needs. I’m adventurous and energetic, I will get on the floor and play with your kid/s. I also have the ability to teach them important communication and life skills to help Read more them grow into compassionate, responsible, and capable adults. I know how to balance being silly and fun with being safe and practical. I also have the ability to relate to children at their level of understanding. As an employee, I am reliable and punctual. I take safety and dependability seriously. I also take fun and interactive play seriously as it is extremely important for a child’s development. This is not just a job for me, it is my passion. I look forward to meeting you and your little one/s :)
