- Comfortable with pets

As a former early childhood teacher, current babysitter, and recent nanny to a spectacular little boy, I have been involved with all aspects of childcare for many, many years. I am a get-down-on-the floor-and-play kind of person who loves pretend play, being outdoors, art, music, books, board games, etc. I want the children in my care to feel safe and loved and respected and have fun learning through play. I also want them to be able to take on as much responsibility as is developmentally appropriate (and as you, the parent or primary caregiver, want them to). I am hyper vigilant about all aspects of safety, have current CPR/First Aid/AED certification, love pets, have a silly sense of humor, a working car, and really love seeing a child's face light up when they are truly "into" something. Hope to hear from you! Thanks.
