Helena C. - Houston Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Helena C.

Full-Time, 5 Years of Experience

I have been a nanny, on and off, for the last six years. I have done everything from full-time to part-time child care, to after-school care as well as an as-needed baby sitter. I am a very reliable, trustworthy, and patient individual. I have experience working with children with hearing and speech impairment, emotional outbursts, as well as children who have different types of developmental delays. I am a very patient, laid back, go-with-the-flow type of nanny/baby sitter. I follow all rules and instructions given by parents, to ensure the child's safety, as well as the comfort level of the child and parent. I can work in a very structured environment, as well as an environment that would require me to be self-sufficient. I create stability and balance in children's lives, by creating flexible daily programs that will respond to the needs and interests of the children in groups or individually. I am CPR and First Aid certified.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I cook/bake, read books, do arts and crafts, paint and color, listen to music, do activities that allow children to express themselves, learn, and have fun at the same time.
