Hi there! My name is Gudrun Birta and I am from Reykjavik, Iceland. I'm coming to Canada to work as a caregiver and I would love to become a part of your family.
I hope to bring my love and adoration of children to your household. I believe in guiding, teaching, mentoring, and playing with the children I work with as I discover so much joy in the children I teach.
Two areas I strive to excel in each day:
Positive Discipline: Through social interactions, conflict resolution, and communication skills.
Nutrition & Health: Healthy eating, motor skill development through exercise, arts & crafts.
Work Experience:
I learned so much from the little ones I worked with at my daycare/preschool in Iceland. I was one of 5 caregivers in a class of 25 toddlers from the ages of 2-3 but I have experience in working with kids of all ages. 3,000 diapers changed and counting! Maybe there is a world record in my future.
Before my daycare position I spent the previous 8 years progressing from a babysitter into a more skilled caregiver. I've had to help my family make ends meet since I was 12 years old. It started as caring for my nieces and nephews (now ages 14, 8, 5, and 4) and for many other families as well.
I also worked in several other jobs unrelated to children but they taught me work ethics, how to appreciate a job, and workplace dynamics. I am very organized and have worked as a janitor in the past so I actively clean the spaces around me.
I speak English and Icelandic fluently, I sing, I dance, I swim like a mermaid, and I am very good at arts and crafts. There is so much I wish to share with you about myself. My unconditional love of children comes first but my love of animals comes close behind. I am extremely caring and have a nurturing heart. I connect easily with children and I am somewhat a child at heart sometimes. I am quite shy when you meet me at first but once I get to know you, I am more open and dynamic. I am not afraid to be goofy and silly. I laugh a lot and smile a bunch. Once I feel comfortable, I don't let anything hold me back.
I am looking for a minimum of 30 hours a week as a caregiver. I can be flexible with scheduling so long as I meet my minimum hours.
Thank you so much for reading my profile. Cheers!
