Nanny in Victoria, British Columbia

Hello everyone! I am looking for a position working with children or teenagers. I have experience babysitting the children of friends and family as well as coaching a junior high basketball team. I have also worked the past five years doing physiotherapy with the elderly which allowed me to develop plenty of patience and care when it comes to vulnerable loved ones! I am an excellent cook and will prepare nutritious meals for your kids, including them in the process if they are old enough and teaching them about nutrition and food preparation in the process. I am an athletic person, interested in all kinds of sports and outdoor activities so I will also ensure your children get fresh air and even some exercise. If your kids aren\'t into sports we can do crafts, play games, read books or anything else together. Your children would be safe with me - I always plan ahead to anticipate any potential problems. I have a Class 5 license with a clean driving record: 18 years without an accidentI I have first aid training and CPR Level 3 - I also travel with a first aid kit. I will gladly complete a new criminal record check and provide ample references - I want you to feel comfortable leaving your kids in my care. I\'d like a position with slightly older kids, no toddlers or babies please! I am comfortable around animals as well and can take your dogs out while I\"m with your kids or even bring my own dog along if your kids want animal company but don\'t have any of their own! Please feel free to call or email me with any questions at all. PS - I believe raising children properly is important work and I will be careful what behaviours and attitudes I model for your kids, with an eye toward teaching kindness & tolerance, environmental stewardship, as well as self-esteem and self-reliance! My experience with children is mostly recreational - hanging out with and babysitting the children of friends and family and coaching a junior high basketball team. I have never been a nanny before but I have several years of experience working with the elderly, another vulnerable and precious sector.
