I have been caring for children for 10+ years. I began babysitting in high school and during my senior year worked at a day care center. I had a class of seven 2-year-old's and worked part-time. I then went off to college to study Child Psychology and began working during my summers as a seasonal nanny, where I fell completely in love with the job and bonded with the families that I worked with deeply. I am now a 30-year-old mother and have a 5-year-old little boy. Since he was about 1-year-old, I have been back into working as a nanny. He has accompanied me to 3 semi long term positions, one summer position and a few part-time positions. The longest position was one in which I was with the family for about 2 years. I became CPR certified in 2008 and am going to be re-certified very soon in infant and child CPR. I love babies, children, and teens alike and find my job rewarding and fun. I am very domestic by nature and would describe myself as loving, compassionate, and patient. I also feel I am a loyal person to my family, friends, and the families that I work with. Since becoming a mother, I have found that working as a nanny gives me a chance to be the primary role-model and caregiver of my son. It also enables me to work and help to guide the lives of the children that I care for by providing them with a person outside their immediate family that they can identify with and talk to (older children). My son is a great play-mate and this gives an amazing and enriching opportunity to broaden socialization in the young children that I work with. I believe that any family would be proud and happy to have me as a nanny and child care provider.
