I have been a professional nanny in the Dayton area for the past six years, and I am currently seeking a new position as my current nanny kiddos have grown older and become more self-sufficient. I hold CPR and First Aid certifications, have a reliable and safe vehicle, and am comfortable working in households with pets. My experience includes caring for children with special needs, managing multiple children simultaneously, and providing support for children ranging in age from 1 to 12 years. I specialize in implementing engaging, age-appropriate activities that foster both development and creativity. I am also open to household management responsibilities and can provide excellent references upon request. Currently, I am pursuing a degree in Child Psychology through online coursework, allowing me to maintain a flexible schedule. I am deeply committed to creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel secure, valued, and supported. My professional values Read more include fostering creativity, individuality, structure, and open communication with the families I serve. I am seeking a long-term position where I can collaborate with a family to create a cohesive, supportive dynamic. As a career nanny, I adhere to professional standards and require guaranteed hours, paid time off, sick leave, and other industry-aligned benefits. If you believe I may be a good fit for your family, I would be delighted to discuss your needs and how I can contribute to your household. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience!
