I have execelent experience in the well being of young children of all ages ranging from pampering of infants up to the middle teenage years for 10 years .I believe the one thing that a care giver needs above all else is organization and patience. Children need to have a sense of stability, but also need to be allowed to have a bit of freedom in their own actions as well. A successful caregiver needs to be able to give individual attention to each child, and then also as a group, making each child feels special. Naturally, every family is different and every child reacts differently- so I believe friendship is key. Gaining the trust and respect of the child is most important... If a child doesn't respect you, they rarely listen to you. I don't believe in anger, violence, or threats to force children into behaving, most children simply Read more desire to feel like that you respect them. Individual, one on one attention that makes them feel that you understand them. To me, that's the trick in a multiple child household.

Nina is wonderful! She met with me beforehand so my son and I could meet her, and even though he was very shy around her I could tell she was a very honest, genuine person. She was able to babysit for my son on a last minute's notice. She asked if it was okay for her to bring along 3 other children she was sitting for, and I was fine with that because it showed me that the other mother was also very comfortable with her babysitting her children too. She is extremely nice and laid back. When I got home, she was even cleaning the dishes! I would definitely recommend Nina to others looking for childcare and I plan on asking her to babysit again! Feel free to message me if you have any questions :)
