Children love me and respect me. I know when to be goofy with them, and know when to be firm. Children need lots of love and they need to be taught communication skills most, everything else follows. when a child knows how to communicate you will see less crying, tantrums, frustration, etcMy child care style. mmm, I like hands on learning. NO TV.. I love going out with the children. (explained above) I am very loving, patient, and firm when needed. Talking to a child has has worked best for me, when you talk to a child they feel important. You always have to explain who, what, when, where, and why, this is how they learn.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets:   Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check:   Eligible to work in the U.S.:   Civil Status: Married  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   10 years experience, 5 references I am currently a full time nanny for two families during the day, both families aare great but I am interested in working with one family only.
