About Connie

Experience: 10 yrs

Peace of mind is what I can provide any parent who leaves their child(ren) in my expert care. Using both my innate and experience related skills, I can assure that your child will thrive in a safe, nurturing and educationally stimulating environment. My expertise lies in the care of infants, toddlers and preschool-aged children. Along with having more than 10 years worth of compensated experience, I have a natural rapport with children and an abundance of common sense and patience. I'm fun and creative in my approach when introducing children to their ABC's and 123's. It's absolutely never too early to expose a child to the joy of reading! My experience has taught me that a happy child is one who feels safe, loved, nurtured and understood. While in my care, I can provide that positive environment for any child at any age. Let me help to team with you as you successfully raise your children! I am seeking a full-time position (40 or more hours a week). PLEASE NOTE: I am willing to consider a nanny-share set-up with two families, if the combined hourly wage is commensurate with what the job would entail. I am very domestically inclined, so I can provide any light housekeeping or meal preparation that is needed. In my youth, I studied French for five years and my love for the language has not waned with the passage of time. I can still speak it in a limited fashion, but I know that with daily usage, I could become quite proficient again. If required for the job, I am willing to enroll in and complete First Aid/CPR Training Courses. I recently received the Tdap vaccine.

My wife and I have never hired a caregiver and were definitely particular about who we thought would be a great fit for us and our 1 year old baby girl. So I looked up top rated caregivers in my area of Newark and Connie populated among the top candidates. I reached out to her through the site and received a response immediately. This was a great first impression as I took that as someone who was very punctual and also looking forward to meeting new clients. It was within a few hours that we decided to go with Connie based off our email conversations, which helped put us at ease, as we knew we found someone was very genuinely passionate about her craft. Connie showed up a few minutes early and had a very warm demeanor that our daughter took to very well. She was extremely respectful of our time schedule and had good suggestions to adjusting it since it would be our daughters first time with a caregiver. Lastly, Connie even notated all the events throughout the night that we could later read. This was very helpful as it also gave us a sense of how our daughter did through the hours. I can't say enough about Connie and her professionalism, she is trusted in our household and we will continue to use her services for years to come especially with number 2 on the way!
