I have experience taking care of children – Infants, toddlers, preschool age to teens including twins. I have no preference to any particular age group. I enjoy taking care of all the age groups I listed above because each age group offers a different, interesting and fun interactions as I have observed/learned of over my 20 years of experience. The best part of being a Nanny is the creativity aspect. I love engaging in arts and crafts and sewing (sewing –basic) and the everyday discovery/teaching of something new to learn; whether learning the alphabet, reading, learning to write or life lessons, some of my best experiences is teaching the children basic cooking (baking) including homework help and supervising school projects etc. I do prepare healthy delicious meals for the children from breakfast, snacks to dinner. I give my total attention to the children in my care. I am safety conscious, Read more firm but loves to play with them at any game they/me come up with. I love board games. I am great at household management from researching for contractors for household projects and coordinating with vendors, am a wonderful organizer (Children’s closets etc.). I also have experience as a Personal Assistant. I like being a nanny because this are their growing years and I always believe that, I do add to their upbringing a positive way. I am skilled at developing a routine with the children in my care and maintaining a clean surroundings and creating an atmosphere of daily expectation of fun activities at (parks, play dates etc.) and points of interests (Museums, Libraries, etc.), taking them to doctor’s appointments, and transporting the children to their activities. I always strive to create a happy environment in which the children look forward to daily over the years (20) I have been a Nanny. I am quiet but talkative when I need to be; am patient, thoughtful, kind, takes initiative, think’s on my feet I am open minded. I have RIE Certification. I have Certification in Food & Beverage Management and I also do event planning (weddings, etc.) I am CPR/AED, and First Aid Certified. It expires in June 20
