I love caring for children of all ages. I have provided professional childcare for over 8 years and have experience with being a nanny with multiple families. I enjoy connecting with kids through crafts, games, exploring outside, teaching them new things, and music. I have a caregiving approach in line with gentle parenting and prefer to work for families that have a similar approach. It lights up my heart to empower children to make good decisions that celebrate their boundaries. I strive to relate with them in a way that encourages them to understand and express their unique needs in a healthy way. In addition to that, I have taken interest in psychology/biology so I can be encouraging of developmental milestones. Education on things such as emotional and nutritional needs for age groups for instance. Through participation in outdoor survival experiences I have learned basic first aid, and I am Read more currently working towards First Aid/CPR certifications. I’m open to helping out around the house and complete other tasks to make your day easier. I have a vehicle, a safe driving record, clean background check, and references.
