Nanny in Timmins, Ontario

Hi there! If you are searching for a dedicated and loving nanny, look no further! My name is Madison and I am 27 years old. I have a cheerful and upbeat personality, and believe in creating a positive, happy environment in which children can thrive. I have experience in supervising and caring for children of all ages. This includes bathing, dressing and nourishing. Moreover, I am well versed in managing children’s day-to-day activities and homework, meals and rest periods. I have excellent time management skills and can juggle childcare and household responsibilities, such as laundry and light housekeeping and cleaning duties. In addition, my child-caring skills have been honed through years of caring for both immediate and extended family. I have two younger siblings who I have always cared and cooked for, and have minded many young cousins – we’re a big family! More than anything, being part of such a big family has taught me how to be patient and flexible, to take things in stride and find a way to make things work, even when faced with a challenging situation. I try to bring a creative spirit to anything I do. I like to give children the opportunity to do lots of activities, to explore the great outdoors, and to use their imagination in play and learning. I value a child\'s creative expression and encourage them to try new things. I have always loved children and find nothing more rewarding than caring for them. At the end of the day, I believe being a great caregiver is about putting the child\'s best interests at heart. I have recently returned from graduate school and am eager to get back to the work I love. I would welcome the opportunity to meet you and your family to discuss the position further and look forward to hearing from you! Cheers! I have been babysitting throughout my life, ever since I got my babysitter's license at age 11. Though it was mostly neighbourhood kids and family members, I also frequently babysat children of the women my father would date. Other experience I have is: Math Tutor (ages 13-16) - In high school, I volunteered after school at a drop in math centre, helping those students who were having difficulties with their homework. I also tutored one-on-one clients in their homes. Student Mentor (ages 13-16) - In high school, I was a student mentor. This involved leading peer mediation sessions, training new mentors, and leading activities at student retreats. Babysitting (ages 8-13) - Mostly after school and evening/night. I supervised and cared for the kids, helped them with their homework, fixed them something to eat, and otherwise had fun! Live in babysitting for week-long vacations (ages 12-15) - While their parents were away, I was in charge of taking the children to and from school, and to their various after-school activities. I would help the kids with their homework if they had questions. I packed their school lunches and made their breakfasts and dinners. I would perform light housekeeping and cleaning duties, such as laundry, washing dishes, and vacuuming. ESL Teacher in South Korea (ages 5-14) - My classes were between 4-15 students in size, and varying grade levels. Along with basic reading, writing, and grammar, I also taught science classes. I was able to utilize my creativity and enthusiasm to create lesson plans that engaged the students, and ones they really enjoyed!
