Amazing, Loving And Reliable Nanny

Responds within a few days

I LOVE kids and they love me! I form a strong bond with children. I love and protect them as if they are my own. I have 12 years experience with children ages 0-17yrs, twins, multiple . I have experience getting infants on a schedule, feeding, changing diapers and potty training. I keep children engaged and happy. I am very loving, but maintain strict boundaries when it comes to discipline. I am great at establishing a schedule and keep children on it. I have found that when children are on a schedule/routine, it brings them stability. I have picked up children from school and driven them to activities. I prepare snacks and light meals and help with homework. I play games and do various crafts, baking and other activities the children enjoy. I have experience as a mothers helper, house manager and scheduling various appointments, travel, play dates and running errands. I am Infant/Child/Adult CPR/First Aid certified. My covid vaccination is current and I have excellent references.

PT Nanny Available Evenings

Responds within a few days

First off, not to forget and mention that I come from a family of 10 which makes me very familiar with kids of all ages . I love to talk with them, take them to parks/arcades, help with homework, do arts and crafts because being creative is something else I like doing. I am currently working at a home daycare with 6 children including infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. From experiencing this, I can say that I am comfortable with taking care of 3 kids at a time. The reason I am looking for another job is because I am inneed of more hours. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have my own transportation with a clean driver's license and am willing to do pick-up, drop-off, and run errands if needed. I can also do light housekeeping like laundry and dishes or anything you need help with. If you're interested in meeting, you can contact me at any time. Thank you.

I have been working in elder care for over 18 years, assisting in the care of a variety of seniors, from those with minimal needs to those with dementia, Alzheimer's disease and physical disabilities. I prepare meals, assist in feeding, bathing, transferring, taking to appointments, spending time outdoors and running errands. I cater to the capabilities of each patient, looking for every way I can add to their quality of life, even if it is something as simple as turning the pages of a book or seeking out a comfort food. When agreed upon in advance, I can work overtime and holidays. Several people were in my care for 4 to 6 years as, once I commit, the job only ends when they move on or pass away. I view my patients as family, which when combined with my experience, allows me to provide much more than basic care in what is often a challenging phase of life. While the tasks of providing care are many, my overall goal is to provide genuine warmth, respect and dignity.

Hi! My name is Ana S, a lucky mom of a beautiful babygirl and a college student with a CNA certification and working towards obtaining a nursing degree. I am dependable, trustworthy and attentive. I enjoy being around children, keeping them entertained, caring for them and teaching them new things! I have previously worked as a full time nanny for taking care of two children of the ages 1 and 3.
