It has been an absolute privilege to be a nanny for the past five years — Archived

It has been an absolute privilege to be a nanny for the past five years. I remain very close with the several families I have worked for, and still work for two of them on a casual basis. Being a nanny is so special because it never feels like work - it is a blessing where I get to witness the miracle of children growing before my eyes. Even the most difficult day as a nanny is a million times better than the best day at any other job, and I cannot imagine doing anything else for the rest of my life. I hope you and your little sprouts are having a wonderful day and that I get to hear from you soon! Cheers and smiles, Dallas =) I have worked for over five years as a nanny, with up to four children at once. I have cared for children ages 10 months up to 14 years. Before becoming a nanny I had 7 years babysitting experience, as well as a lifetime of working with special needs children. I worked as a lifeguard, swim instructor, and special needs swim instructor in Penticton. As a nanny I cooked, cleaned, did laundry, ran errands, did farm chores, took care of the pets, and did many other household tasks. I loved reading to the children, playing silly games with them, making cool crafts, and going on exciting adventures. Some of our outings included group reading time at the library, drop-in Gymnastics classes, free time at the Rec Centre Gym, sandcastle building at the beach, picnics in the park, and cruising the Farmers Market. I have been told that I have a way with children, which I attribute to my strong intuition of their wants and needs. I am very energetic and outgoing, but also calm and gentle. I highly value keeping a loving, nurturing atmosphere where children feel safe and protected, and at the same time free to learn and explore this great world of ours =).
