Nanny in Cambridge, Ontario

I have a love and passion for working with children and I put all my energy into everything I do. I am an enthusiastic, creative and caring individual who can connect with children in a very positive way. Families I have worked with have always wanted me to return back because of the care I put into everything I do. I am willing to plan and prepare activities that are aimed towards your children interests on my own time so I ensure they have the best time possible. I will do all I can to ensure you and your children are happy and know they are safe and cared for. I have my Bachelor of Education and am certified as a Primary/Junior Teacher and I am also certified with the College of Early Childhood Educators. Child care I have provided child care for several families from 2002-Present. The children have been infant to age 12. During babysitting I cared for children and played indoors or outdoors, made crafts, completed science experiments, read or did homework with children. I would provide meals for the children while their parents were away and occasionally drove them to extra-curriculars (swimming, dance). I always follow any instructions the parents leave and ensure they return to a clean home when they arrive. I volunteered with a family who had twins and needed someone to help them care for their children. I would go for walks, feed, change and play with the twins from birth to age one. Teaching and Classroom Experience During my time at University of Guelph in the Child, Youth and Family program and Teacher’s College I had many experiences in a variety of classrooms. I was responsible for planning and teaching students with a variety of needs and interests. Last summer I worked for the YMCA as an Early Childhood Educator where I followed the Playing to Learn Curriculum and Day Nurseries Act to create a stimulating, safe and nurturing environment for children to learn and grow. It was also my responsibility to communicate with parents during drop-off and/or pick-up. My attached resume includes more of my volunteer and work experiences I have had working with children and families.
