About Helen

Experience: 8 yrs

I have worked as a nanny for over eight years for four different families full time and many different families on part time. The children's ages were from newborn (3 m) to teenagers (12 y). I have also worked with a group of kids in Sunday school with the help of a co-teacher. Their ages ranged from 2-5 and there were 14+ kids at a time that came consistently so working with groups is of no problem for me. I love to cook, crafting & other artsy stuff, so I would occupy our time with that. I also enjoy indoor activities outside the house like museums & library. I would take them there as well as the parks for some fresh air and interacting with other children. One thing that I love about kids is that they love to learn and soak up all the knowledge very quickly. I believe in a love and logic approach to taking care of children but I'm also open to adapting any other parenting style as well! I have can help take care of pets. I have a cat who is good with others so I can bring her too.
