Hello! My name is Renee. I am 30 years old and have been a live-in nanny for two wonderful girls ages 8 and 11, September-March for the past 2 years. It worked out well with my corporate schedule, but I've missed working with children and desire to be a full-time, year-round nanny. I graduated from Western Michigan University in 2012 and, have taken many courses (1/2 way through the program) towards my Masters in Social Work, with a focus on all staged of childhood development. Finances didn't allow me to continue but, I do plan to finish one day. For 3 years after graduation, I worked for a non-profit in Grand Rapids, MI working with at-risk youth ages 5-17. In my years there I have done 1-1 therapy with children, including those with developmental disabilities (specifically the autism spectrum). I am CPR certified for infants/children and, have many years of Read more experience with infants-toddlers. I used to travel with family to Coronado Island during the summers and would watch 4 little boys ages newborn-6. I also cared for a newborn while I was working towards my masters. I am self-motivated, active, energetic, outgoing, personable, laid back, organized, thoughtful, easygoing, and respectful. With my work experience and educational background, I understand how important it is for your child to be raised with the background & environment you want them to be raised in. And, also, to start stimulating their minds in an educational manner starting at birth. I'm very much looking forward to working with a family and their precious little ones and, helping to provide a healthy, safe, fun, loving, and educational upbringing. Current availability: Two weeks notice to current corporate job and i'll be available 24/7 ***I am looking for a commitment of 1-3 years. And, if I have been working with you for a long time, we can always negotiate for longer. I think stability and consistency are key for children we care for and, would be willing to stay a bit longer if you needed me to do so.
