Hello! My name is Kait and I am a 25 y

Hello! My name is Kait and I am a 25 y.o. female looking for a full time, live out nanny position beginning in June 2014. I have over 7 years of experience working with children... from the age of 18 to 25 I worked as a nanny for three amazing families while I attended university. I have cared for children ranging in age from 3 months to 7 years old. I am certified in First Aid and CPR and was a swimming teacher for 3 years. Last May I graduated from the University of Winnipeg with a B.A. in psychology and a focus on child development. Since September, I have been living in Austria and teaching English at an elementary school. I will be back in Winnipeg for the summer break and am hoping to gain employment with a fun, easygoing family for a few months . My approach to childcare is to first and foremost establish a relationship of trust and security, so that the child feels safe and comfortable around me and our environment. I believe in patience and play-based learning and enjoy engaging the children in age-appropriate activities. I like doing crafts, reading stories, singing songs, and going on walks to the park/zoo/library/pool. I am open to doing some light housework but my priority will be on the children and his or her needs. Pay is negotiable and based on number of children and hours. I can provide a resume and a list of excellent references from families that I have worked for in the past. I have over 7 years of experience working with children of various ages. I am comfortable with bottle and formula feeding, diaper changing, bathing, putting children down for a nap, potty training, and meal preparation. I like to engage infants and toddlers in various activities that stimulate their senses and satisfy their growing sense of curiosity in the environment around them (in a safe way!). With older children I spend more time committed games that are fun, active and challenging.
