Meet Kathryn
- Comfortable with pets
I hope you will consider me for the nannying position you are currently looking to fill. I have over 11 years of experience babysitting and nannying for several different families, taking care of children of all ages (ranging from 2 months to 14 years old). I LOVE animals and have always had cats and dogs my whole life, so I have a great deal of experience taking care of them. I am a very active, energetic person and enjoy being outdoors. I run over 10 miles a day and have played several sports throughout my life and continue to play. I love arts and crafts and coming up with fun trips to take with the children I care for as a nanny. I promote an environment and learning, reading and use of imagination instead of TV or video game use. House cleaning is automatic for me and I will always Read more leave the house more organized and visibly cleaner. I can dust, vacuum, wash floors, wash and put away dishes, prepare meals, do laundry, remove stains from laundry, sew, iron, organize and any other household task that needs attending to throughout the day. I believe that one of my strongest skill sets is working with children. I am very good at communicating with them on an appropriate and understanding level. I care more than most about the child's overall well being. Not only do I have years of experience with working as a nanny, I also have years of experience working in hospitals and I am fully trained and certified for CPR, using EPI pens for allergic reactions and steps to follow in such incidences as an asthmatic attack or epileptic seizures. One of my favorite activities is reading to the children I care for, and many times I bring books that I have to read to them such as pop-up books. I think it's important to stimulate the child through reading, learning and creative exercises and physical activities instead of just sitting the child in front of a tv or video games I am 100% present when I am nannying/babysitting and I am not the type to take personal phone calls or texts. I am available as soon as possible for a part-time or full-time position. I am available to work long hours and all days of the week. I am also available to tutor or help with homework as needed! :)
