I am currently working in the child care field as a part time Nanny/Babysitter & previously an After School/Vacation Carer for St Andrews School & also an In Home Educator for C & K In Home Care. I have over 16 years experience in Child Minding in all environments; Child Care Centre After School/Vacation Care Resort Kids Club & Night Babysitting On Call Nanny for Agencies Private Nanny As a very caring & meticulous mother myself, I understand how extremely precious the care is of any child for either long or short term & I take pride in creating a calm & pleasant experience with positive experiences to complement each child's uniqueness. I am very calming & reassuring to parents as I understand how anxious & nerve racking any separation time can be, for both child & parent & I do not take lightly the huge influence a Carer has being a role model on their precious young minds. My strength lies in my naturally nurturing, warm & softly spoken nature & I feel I can 'read' children's signs extremely well to identify their ongoing individual needs. I believe great communication, creating a sense of trust, security & confidence to make a child feel safe, comfortable & happy.
