Hello! I hope this finds you well. I am currently nannying for a wonderful family, the position is a part-time one that keeps me occupied during the afternoons and evenings M-F (20 hours total). Ideally what I would love to find is a babysitting position on weekends or weekdays in the morning. I have nannied in the past for 2 loving boys while I was attending University at Santa Clara University. I find that working with children is truly rewarding, with all it's challenges you are constantly learning, and providing a family with the love and care that they deserve is a fantastic accomplishment. I began by babysitting the first child when he was an infant and it evolved into nannying as they got older. The time spent with them would vary due to my school schedule and distance from my school but I would average it to about 50-65/hrs Read more a month over 4 years. A little about me... I grew up travelling and living in multiple countries such as Brazil, Japan and London, so I absolutely love learning about other cultures (particularly if it's food related). I started out my career after college with Apple! Which was such a great opportunity but unfortunately not in the field that I wanted to pursue, so I am currently in pursuit of my aforementioned goal! With that being said not to worry I am looking to only work part-time positions for the next few years to gain insight and experience, and I would love to have nannying be a long-term opportunity. I have a very positive attitude/outlook, I am great at receiving feedback/communicating and I'm always willing to wear multiple hats! I absolutely love animals as well, very willing to tend to a family with a dog/cat or anything else :) I would love to chit chat so any other questions you may have please do not hesitate to ask!
