Hi my name is Elizabeth and I am a childcare professional living in Brooklyn. My most recent position was as a Preschool and Childcare Assistant Teacher for children ages 2-5 in a private school. I'm exceptionally great with infants-5 year olds though I've worked with youth up to 13 in summer camp roles. I've been a nanny for an infant for one year and helped raise my niece when she was two and 3 years old. I can send my resume but would like to highlight some skills that I could bring to your household that don't always make it onto paper. Firstly, I can help potty train. I'm patient and very understanding of early childhood development. I know a basic schedule that is developmentally appropriate for children including activities that are beneficial to physical and mental growth. I can teach them how to be independent, proud of themselves for Read more their achievements and have done it productively with classes of up to 14 two year olds. I'm not opposed to light housework and love to cook, in fact I love to teach children how to cook and eat wholesome foods. (We had a garden at the school and we would often cook ground to table!). I'm an artistic, creative, musically inclined writer and illustrator looking for a new family. I'd love to include more information but for sake of brevity will await your interest and can definitely talk through the rest.
