Hello! My name is Dawn. I moved here 4 years ago from Kentucky. I have experience as a foster parent and also as an EMT/ FF. I am well versed with teaching limited sign language to improve communication and reduce frustration (starting around 10 months old), phonics and speech, and helping to better prepare toddlers to enter the pre-K and kindergarten grade levels. I have perfected my swaddling technique (yes, it really does make a difference). I am great at ensuring infants do tummy time, work on rolling over, then sitting up, standing and finally walking. I have knowledge and experience on sleep training infants. I also have experience (including raising my own kids) and training with older age children, including children who are on the spectrum. I am detailed oriented, and I provide a structured day (or night) to ensure we are able to achieve everything that should be Read more done; including , homework, dinner, sports, Bath time, and bedtime. I am also great at multitasking, and try to help out around the home as needed. In my current role as a nanny, I care for two kiddos (8 months and 26 months) simultaneously. I take them on walks, trips to the park, trips to Chick-fil-A as a bonus end of the week outing (and it doesn’t hurt that they get to have lunch out and play immediately afterwards in the same trip), to the doctors (if needed), on play dates, swimming and to other activities, that are age-appropriate. I am OCD about cleanliness and germs, and I have been vaccinated with the Johnson & Johnson Covid Vaccine, both of the Pfizer covid vaccines, and the Pfizer Covid booster vaccine. I own a BMW X5, which is fully insured. The family that I am with is now transitioning to a daycare for pre-K and I am looking for another family to grow with. I can start immediately if needed. I am also available almost every Friday and Saturday night for date nights (if interested). I have excellent references. and would love to meet/ talk with you. My phone number is (704) 488-5214
