I have 22 years of experience and education and training. I started my career about 22 years ago as a nanny for about 5 years, and went to college for early childhood education. I worked at a childrens camp for five years with school agers 3rd -5th grade. I started working at three childcare centers working with all ages while in college. Also while in college I volunteered at elementary schools and preschools. I then started my own childcare and preschool and ran that working with all ages from 2005-2020. I taught preschool for 16 years, and taught infants/toddlers for about 4 years in the early childhood field. I have worked with all ages at my church through Sunday school and awana in the last 12 years. After college I have continued to do trainings in the early childhood field. I can get re-certified in CPR and first aid, I Read more let my certification go in 2020. I have four children (ages 5.5, 9.5, 11 and 13) of my own that I have to drop off at school at 7:40am and pick up from school at 3:20/3:30pm but my husband can pick them up from school just not drop off. So my main hours I am available as a nanny are 8am to 3pm but could work it out to be available past 3pm if needed, or eariler than 8am if your child(ren) rode in my suv with us to drop my kids off to school. If I am coming to your house I would need to bring my 5.5 year old daughter (March birthday) with me on non-school days. I homeschooled her for preschool so I can teach your child also If you have a child from 1.5 years old through 5 years old. I am open to coming to your house or your child(ren) coming to my house. (I do have two dogs and a cat, but the dogs would be in their soon to be fenced area or on their leash or kennel.) My rate is based on if I am coming to you (14-20 per hour depending on location), or your child is coming to my place(3-4 per hour). I am also open to nanny share.
