“ My first nanny job was in August 2011 through July 2012. I watched two boys. When I started this job, the boys were ages 3 and 5 and when I left they were 4 and 6. My work schedule was Monday through Friday about 40 to 50 hours per week. I loved working with the boys and still miss them every day. During the time I worked with the boys, I helped drive them to many activities and car pool them to and from school....

My work schedule was Monday through Friday about 40 to 50 hours per week. I loved working with the boys and still miss them every day. During the time I worked with the boys, I helped drive them to many activities and car pool them to and from school. I loved to have fun with the boys, taking them to parks for picnics and taking them to fun places like the zoo. I loved teaching them new things. Some other things I enjoyed doing with the boys are crafts/coloring, riding bikes/scooters, playing hop scotch/chalk, playing hide and seek, and playing in the sprinklers/swimming. When their dad started working from home, I had to look for a new family. I had an amazing experience with these kids and I hope to find some more kids that I can love just as much!

I started my second nanny job in July 2012. I'm currently still working for this family. I'm watching two girls. When I started this job, their ages were 15 months and 3 years old and now the girls are 2 years old and 4 years old. I'm currently working Monday through Friday about 35 hours a week. I help car pool the girls to and from preschool. I also take the girls to the library for story time, go to the living planet aquarium, the discovery gateway, and many more fun places. I love spending time with these girls; it has been an amazing experience.

My dream has always been to become a preschool teacher. While I was in high school, I took preschool classes. We did many activities and I helped with the lesson plans. Last year, I volunteered at a preschool for a full year and absolutely loved it! I'm currently a student and I'm going to school to become a preschool teacher. I just finished the spring semester. I will not be going to school in the summer, but I will start up in the fall going to school full-time. I'm hoping to find a job with about 25 hours a week that I will be able to plan my school schedule around in the fall of 2013.

I also have grown up watching my two little sisters grow and learn new things. They are 2 and 4 years old and this summer they will be turning 3 and 5. I love helping out with them and babysitting them when my parents go out. I love playing with them and teaching them new things.

I have a lot of experience with children and I'm looking forward to meeting new families. :)
