My name is Tyra. I have experience working with a diverse background of people, ages, mental, and physical disabilities. I have been entrusted in caring for babies from birth into their teenage years. My experience includes, overnight babysitting/nanny multiples. I prepared daily activities, shopped, help complete assignments. I also help the children to reach their milestones among many other duties. My approach to learning is to keep them active in learning and engagement throughout the day with age appropriate activities and verbal communication. I clean as I go with the children and I also have them engage in their own daily upkeep. I believe the first few years of life are the most important in their mental development. I believe engagement and child interaction is very important when it comes to their learning and development. I adhere to following the guidelines and routines set for the child whether it be Read more dietary restrictions or daily routines. I believe a parents input is very crucial to the child’s day to day. I have a complete resume if interested and a valid drivers license. I keep excellent communication with family and their care teams. I am punctual, attentive, respectful, reliable, professional and trustworthy. I am very patient with kids. I also love animals have taken care of multiple. I have a strong sense of morals and values with integrity. I am also knowledgeable in Emergency Response, First Aide, and certified in CPR through AHA through my healthcare work experience. Through my diverse experience, compassion, and willingness to grow I believe I would make a wonderful nanny/babysitter for your children. *Rates depend on needs of family and I am understanding feel free to reach out to discuss options I am here to help you and you families needs.
