Nanny in Powell River, British Columbia

I'm an
Individual
I would love to start a new career in child care. As much as I loved being a nurse, I didn't get to spend as much time with each patient as I would have liked because of my responsibilities to many different patients. I believe that my nursing experience gives me an advantage to caring for children because I am comfortable giving prescribed medications and I know how to handle the scrapes and coughs of everyday life. I love working with children because they help me to learn as much about life as I can hope to teach them. Parents and caregivers can be assured that their children will be safe when I'm taking care of them, especially in my trained areas such as first aid and lifeguarding. Although I don't have children of my own, I have been caring for friends children casually for years and I'm very comfortable caring for new born children and pre-schoolers. I have two dogs of my own in my hometown, but they will not be with me during child care sessions (though they are being taken care of by others!). I hope you'll consider me as your nanny! I have been babysitting and caring for pets casually for about 3-4 years for friends and co-workers. My passion is to work with children and I love learning from them as much as I love to teach them. I did my paediatric rotation in school in 2012 and received very good feedback from my instructors as well as from families. I am a nurse and I had my lifeguarding certification in 2010. This has recently expired, but I have not forgotten the essential information and skills that I learned from those courses. I'm very healthy and active, and I'm also a very good cook! Though I mostly cook vegetarian meals, I am also able to cook with meat and fish. I love working with children and pets, and I'm calm in high pressure/high stress situations because of my nursing experience. I have worked in the emergency room as well as in community health, so I am prepared for many situations.
