Hi there! My name is Gabby, and I'm a current graduate student at Western Washington University here in Bellingham! I am interested in a part-time baby-sitting position this summer, as I am looking to continue building my work experience while on break. I have 6 years of paid experience in Early Childhood Education, including 1 year of experience working in a daycare as a Teacher's Assistant and 5 years of experience as a Nanny. I am most experienced working with children ages 0-5 years through these positions, but I also have miscellaneous experience as a tutoring and working with children ages 8-18 years. In my role as a nanny, I have worked with the same family for 5 years. I started nannying when the family's first child was only 2 months, and have continued helping ever since. Since I've started nannying for this family, the first child is now 5 Read more years old and they have since welcomed a second child who is 2 years old. As a result of this position, I am experienced: • Caring for babies, toddlers, and pre-kindergarten age children in a 1:1 setting. • Caring for 2 children simultaneously. • Assisting in meal-preparation and bottle feeding. • Cleaning and sanitizing food/bottle equipment. • Settling children for naptime/bedtime. • Establishing reliable and consistent routines for children. • Creating daily activities centered around children's needs, including mental and emotional simulation and physical exercise through play. • Providing children creative outlets to explore, such as through music, arts, and crafts. • Assisting children in using the bathroom/changing diapers and pull-ups. • Helping with miscellaneous tasks around house, such as doing laundry, washing dishes, sweeping/mopping, cleaning toys without needing direction or prompting. • Helping care for family's two large dogs as needed. In my position at local daycare, I am also experienced: • Supervising a classroom of 15 children independently. • Preparing activities and assisting Lead Staff in instructing children through art projects, reading, gardening and science experiments, and math and counting practice. • Helping in the supervising children during meal times/recess. I truly value the relationships that I build with the families I care for, and I hope that I can serve your family's needs well!
