I have been a professional nanny for over 25 years. I do specialize in newborn to 5 years old; I also have considerable experience with older children. I am CPR and first aid certified, reliable and trustworthy. I am very well practiced in all area's of infant and toddler care, including sleep training (an absolute must for most parents) infant and toddler sign language and the preparation of natural and organic baby food. I am warm, gentle and patient by nature and can establish a nurturing and structured environment for little ones to grow and thrive in. Little ones entrusted to my care enjoy reading, singing, music, taking walks and playtime designed to stimulate growth and development. Never do I rely on tv or other electronic devices to do my job. I remain fully engaged with the little ones and believe in treating children from the earliest ages with respect, Read more dignity and as individuals. All of the little ones I have had the joy of caring for have thrived and learned as a result of the nurturing I provide, time spent and games played. Everything form colors and shapes to letters and numbers and even early spelling and math skills all develop effortlessly from our playtime. I know from experience, the bond I create with the little ones heightens self esteem and enables learning and believe with nurturing and attention, all children can be taught most of what they need to be socially, emotionally and academically successful in the first 3 years. I am a full service nanny, who assumes all responsibilities related to the children, including, laundry, keeping toys and equipment clean and organized and food preparation (from first puree's to solids). I am highly organized, detailed oriented and multi- task easily; and always maintain a neat and tidy household. As a mother (2 children, both university graduates) I fully grasp the need to have peace of mind when leaving your precious one in the care of another; I can provide this as well as excellent references and letters of recommendation. I have always enjoyed wonderful relationships with the families I've worked for and have never been fired from a position. In fact a remain in contact with a number of previous families. I have a quiet lifestyle and a flexible schedule allowing for date nights and routinely travel. Look forward to hearing from you! Barbara Frank
