I have over 10 years of experience in caring for children of all ages-from new-born infants to 12 year olds, both girls and boys. I have babysat and nannied for a variety of families with different needs and styles, however wherever I am I always try to combine fun and educational tools to keep children entertained. These activities vary by age and interest, for example I used to make masks of superheroes for boys ages 5,7, and 9 that they could wear and play with. While we would make the masks I would teach them words in French or Italian or we would play state capitals. I am CPR certified for both children and infants and Red Cross certified in First Aid. I am a native English speaker, however I am fluent in French and conversational in Italian. I am also completely comfortable with young children around/in water and have Read more taught young children how to swim.
