I have been a private childcare provider for over 6 years. I am a self motivated and creative professional seeking a position that will fully utilize a diversity of skill sets in childcare. I am a caring, energetic, and responsible individual interested in creating deeply trusting and personal reationships between myself and each family I work with. My patience and loving nature provides a comfortable environment in which a child feels safe to explore and learn.   I enjoy sharing my interests with the children and families I work with and hope to learn more about the interests of the family as well. Working with a family is a great responsibility, as well as a great learning experience. In the past I have taught children I work with to knit, sew, garden, cook, bake, play musical instruments and read. Usually, we work on art and music projects, theater, dance, science Read more related projects, and any activity involving animals and outdoor play. I have a basic understanding of French, but do not speak it fluently, and have worked with a french-speaking family. Being a nanny of young children means watching them grow and observing their behavioral development. I am empathetic and conscientious of children's needs and ways of expressing themselves.  If there are special needs, it is important that good communication occur between the family and myself so that I can do the best job possible and so that the child or children have the best possible care. I look forward to working with you!
