  About Me
 
Hi, My name is Candace P.. I am 20 years old and currently living in Northbrook Illinois where I nannied for a family of four kids. I have had 3 years of child care experience. My experiences include babysitting for different families, working in my churches sunday school nursery, moving internationally to nanny, and now nannying in Northbrook. I have 5 younger brothers and me being the oldest I am automatically hired to be the babysitter. I am a very outgoing person as well as a very honest person. I love working with people and meeting new people. My hobbies and passions include cosmetology and fashion. I am currently trying to work a bit more to save up for Paul Mitchell Cosmetology School. I am passionate about life and everything that comes with it. I am a hard worker I believe and I am sure my references will agree to that. Since I moved to Northbrook to nanny I am looking for a Live in position only. I am willing to do more than nannying though. I also don't mind moving out of northbrook maybe closer to the city. I hope you have found some interest in me. Please feel free to message me at my person email ***@*** if you are interested. Thanks

  Work Experience & Education Background
 
3 years experience, 2 references
I have 3 years of experience.

My experiences started out with the simple task of babysitting. I baby sat for many different family friends. I then moved into working with my churches sunday school nurseries. I then set out for bigger and better things which included moving internationally to Germany to nanny. The family I nannied for in Germany had a premature 3 month old daughter. She was such a pleasure. I really enjoyed this job. My daily tasks included feeding her bottles, changing her soiled clothes and diapers, doing her wash folding and putting it away in the proper places, making sure all of her stuff was sanitized and tidy every day, I also had to ensure that she was taking her naps and getting enough rest in order to be a healthy little baby. With my second nanny job in Northbrook Il, I worked with four kids ranging from 1 years old to 9 years old. I love these kids. My day started at 7 am, from about 7 until 7. 45 am I was getting the kids dressed for school and feeding them all breakfast. Then from about 8 until 3 or 4 in the afternoon I was with the 1 year old. That involved feeding cleaning playing naps etc. When the older kids got home from school I would help with home work feed bathe and put to bed. I love nannying.
