Nanny in Calgary, Alberta

Hi, I have executive skills when it comes to having fun and being involved with your children and household priorities. I am highly educated, experienced and want to enjoy my time with your kids, and all their friends, too! The more the merrier. There is no doubt that I am the natural authority when you are not around, and this allows everyone to relax and have a lot more fun and conversation. As a successful career woman and mother myself, I know what you need from your number one childcare resource in order to make everyone\'s life run smoother and allow you to have the best time with your family when you are not at work. I am all about outdoor fun and indoor games; healthy food and feeding habits are non-negotiable with me. Good behavior or improved behavior on the part of my charges is never a problem, I have found. Parents love me because they know I am in charge and involved, and that the kids are safe and having fun. Kids love me because they know who is boss, and that they will be enjoying themselves productively to the fullest. With more than 15 years training and intense work experience ( 25 -40 hours a week) in the fields of physical fitness, health, yoga, and dance instruction, I have gradually been asked to do more and more training and development work with children,; at present I am doing this on a variable and routinely scheduled basis, with children of all ages. • Parents recruited me to work with their autistic spectrum children, and I have one or two regular clients whom I greatly enjoy working with. They range from very low (disabled) range to high functioning. As an avid student of neurology and physiology, I emphasize physical training to stimulate the mental learning abilities. • I am a big fan of outdoors activity and do most of my best work with ASD or normal children having adventures outside and doing sports. • I teach entire families to ski (downhill) …. On a private basis - usually at Nakiska • I tutor children in all subjects, using all kinds of inventive methods. • I have taught dance class as well as yoga in after-school programs at elementary school ((Ecole Lycée Louis Pasteur in Marda Loop). I helped organize their after-school program and attendance doubled when I ran the classes. • Cardel Place Sports Centre invited me to speak as an expert on the benefits and hazards of Yoga for Children and Adults, and I also animated day-long demonstrations of folk dance for parents and children there. I also taught kids dance classes on Saturdays with another teacher. • Singlehandedly organizing and implementing 10 hour long premium day camps for kids 3-12 years old which included martial arts, dance, yoga, crafts, sports games, and cooking classes every single day for every single child. Meals were also provided with a full operating kitchen, as well as special events parties if the season was right. My rates are always negotiable, but my standards and performance always stay high.
