I have extensive training and experience caring for infants, toddlers and children, I am a professional, qualified caregiver. I don't only take care of basic physical needs like safety, good nutrition and good hygiene. I also work with parents and do my best to help the children I care for, grow and develop to their fullest potential, by forming good habits being fair, and considerate of others. I teach them to be able to solve problems on their own. I encourage them to express their feeling and to use their creativity. The children in my care will always feel loved and respected and given as much attention as possible. I take the children I care for to fun outings: parks, museums, libraries etc. so they can explore have fun, learn new things and interact with different people. I have experience as an ESL teacher. I am certified in CPR and First Aid, Infant & Child Health and Safety, Child Development-Ages and Stages, Nutrition and Feeding.
Elizabeth (Shalom) has been caring for my son (16 mos) in a nanny share with another toddler about his age for nearly a year. She is warm and patient in her actions with the children and attentive to their basic and emotional needs. She goes out of her way to plan days full of fun activities, outdoor time, and age-appropriate learning. My son is very active, and she always makes sure he has opportunities to play, climb, and explore, and has taught him so much - from baby sign language to now colors and numbers. She is professional, communicative, and has been a true partner in raising my son. As a first time mom, she has helped me through each new phase and transition, putting my son on the right schedule for him and helping me troubleshoot when any challenges arise. It has put me completely at ease knowing that my son is in her care each day, and I strongly recommend her to anyone looking for childcare!
