Hello! My experience as a nanny, home school teacher, and children’s language therapist developed my passion for kids and teaching. I’ve completed extensive Early Childhood Education courses. I’ve been told that I’m extremely patient and positive. I make flexible, fun play/learning situations with games, reading, crafts, gardening, and most any other activity. I'm middle-aged but VERY active. With my high energy level, I keep up with children in sports. My recent 7 month temporary nanny position was with a 2-1/2 month old girl and a 5-year-old boy, both of whom I adore. I was also a nanny for 5 years, for 3 children aged 3 mos. to 6-1/2 yrs. I helped raise 6 step-kids as well. My coursework included Child Development, Child Psych, Education Psych and more. I prefer to praise positive behaviors, rather than using other options. My CPR & First Aid certification is current. LiveScan fingerprints and background Read more check are on file for my school credential. I have a reliable car and clean driving record, and I do not drink or smoke. I’m willing to do housekeeping, laundry, marketing and errands as well. You may contact me at 805.444.4994 or cindyvl444@gmail.com I’m available immediately. I believe that my energy, enthusiasm, skills and experience will enable me to excel as your nanny. I hope to meet your family soon! REFERENCES: Mary M. & Debbie L. Phone: 805-340-4749 (Mary) Debbie L. -- Cindy worked for us for one month. When we needed her again ten days later, we were very fortunate she was available. She worked for us for another 6 months. When she started with us, the two children were 5 years and 2-1/2 months. She was wonderful with both ages. She was very engaged with the 5 year old, bringing her personal books, games and crafts to share with him. Cindy took excellent care of the infant. Anyone would be lucky to have Cindy look after their loved ones. Mark Vanleeuwen (Please see reference on care.com) Email: markvl@ca.rr.com Thank you for your consideration, Cindy
