Find experienced nannies in Excelsior, MN

I have over six years of experience working with children of all ages in positions as both a teacher and a caregiver, and I adore what I do. I started off as a babysitter for family friends & people in my neighborhood, and later worked as both a first grade faith formation teacher and nursery attendant at my church. Throughout high school I taught musical theatre classes for children 3-12 at a studio in Minneapolis. I've nannied for the past two summers, most recently for a family with a year and a half old daughter and a 13 week old daughter, and I would really love to nanny again this summer. Outside of working with children, I'm currently a BFA Acting student at Columbia College Chicago. I have three years of dance training, nine years of training as a singer, and five years of piano. I love to be outside, especially in the summer, and I love to bake.

I have watched kids since I was a kid myself, and I love creating fun games and snacks to keep children entertained and I think I'm pretty good at it. I have one steady babysitting job that has lasted around 2 years, from when the child was 3mos to around 2.5yos, that I absolutely adore. I frequently will help out friends and family for emergency babysitting jobs as well, if they have an event or another sitter cancels. I have taken childcare classes, and I am a certified EMR and I am certified in CPR. I have always felt a strong urge to care for others, and I believe it is what I was put on this earth to do, and children are a blessing to be able to nurture and care for them as they grow up!

I became a certified babysitter for the first time when I was 11.

Ever since I have worked in preschools, day care centers, nannied and babysat children, from ages 0-10. I love observing each child's special interests and following these to help them learn more about the world. I have experience with twins and potty-training.
