Nanny in Toronto, Ontario

Hello, I just moved to Toronto from Paris. I am the oldest of 6 children, so I am very used to taking care of children and I love doing it. My family is from Normandy: a province in the west of France. When I left home to move to Paris for my studies, I lived with elderly people through the Ensemble2Génération and Le Parisolidaire associations. I was in charge of helping them with their daily life activities and needs. I have always loved helping and being in the service of others as it is truly rewarding and gratifying; to see kids become independent and help seniors have a better quality of life. I would like to perfect my English as I will need it to grow the company I started in France after I finished my studies. I freelance and work remotely with companies to help them with their digital needs, and to help them thrive in a internet-centric world, which is a really and exciting and interesting adventure. About me: I'm someone who is courageous, a hard worker and who loves life; thankful every day for the opportunities that I can take advantage of and experience. Having grown up in a large family taught me a sense of responsibility and about how to live. I like things in order so tidying and cleaning are essential for me. I love cooking (French food of course) but also enjoy cooking other types of food as well. Having done baby-sitting for more than 10 years, homework assignments, after school activities, and playing with the kids is a real pleasure for me and second nature. I was a girl scout for 9 years so I learned a lot of practical skills during that time. I am also very athletic and musical. I did 10 years of classical dance, 8 years of violin and music theory, and I did choral singing as well. I also competed in RG (rhythmic gymnastics) and swimming. Doing sports gives me balance and is an outlet after a long day in the technological world :) I never drink alcohol and am vegetarian to respect nature. I rarely go out at night because I am a morning person and I appreciate the the calm it offers. Thanks to an immersion in an English-speaking context, I will learn English and habits. Discover others country and other ways of living is always fascinating. I worked in Qatar and Egypte with my old company, I have taught french language to children, and I learn so much with them. I would find a family a stay with them minimum one month until 2018. I am very honest with you, eventually I would like to find a job as a system administrator because I really like IT and it will be an international experience. But if I find the ideal family it will good for me to stay as much as she wishes, I adapt myself without problem! Feel free to call or text me. I look forward to being of service to you and your family; sharing my culture and language with you, and partaking in your culture and daily life. See you soon, Claire.
