I am open to either a short-term or long-term position. I have twenty-three months of combined full time nannying experience. During this time I was responsible for three children, ages 8, 4, and 2 and most recently, 3 children aged 2, 3, and 6. Duties included, but were not limited to, drop off and pick up at school, bringing kids to swim class, baseball practice etc., meal prep, house work, engaging children in thoughtful exercise and play, minding the dog, maintaining a strong and vocal relationship with the parents, and being a positive role model in the lives of the children. I have extensive babysitting experience, spanning over five years and children aged between two and fourteen. I absolutely love children and wish to have four of my own one day. I am attentive, an advocate for safety, I love to engage children and consider myself very approachable. I recognize the value in constant communication and a strong relationship between nanny and parent. I also recognize the importance of positive influences in a child's life. I look forward to engaging your children in thought-provoking activities and being a positive role-model in their lives. A little about me... I have been enrolled in Queen's University's Concurrent Education program, completing my BA in French Literature in April 2020, with the goal of becoming a high-school French teacher and, perhaps one day, the principal of a high-school. I hope to become a French teacher as pursuing a job where I can make a direct difference is very important to me. I am eager to teach young minds about peace, love, equality, and how unbelievably lucky we are to live in a first world country. In June of 2013 graduated from Grimsby Secondary School's French Immersion program. Thanks to this program, and spending four months in France on a Rotary Youth Exchange in 2011, I am bilingual in French. Going on exchange to France when I was sixteen changed my world. I developed the travel bug and decided to put university on hold in order to learn about myself and discover the world around me. Additionally, I have gained numerous life skills through my trips backpacking through Thailand and Europe, as well as attending Korea University in Seoul for the --... school year. I am confident in myself, resilient, and know how to handle myself and stay calm in difficult situations. I am confident in my decision-making skills, have a strong sense of self, and am very independent. I recognize that, as a parent, it is important for you to know who I am and what kind of life I live. I've grown up in a family that values travel, progressive thinking, equality, and of course; family. My mother and father are nurses and they are the best people I have ever met. They have taught me empathy, the importance of standing up for what you believe in, and the power of unconditional love.
