  About Me
 
My name is Beth and I am a 26 year old woman living in Gettysburg PA. I have years of experience as a private nanny and now I am working in banking, but nannying holds some of my favorite memories and I would love to get back to it. My first aid and CPR certifications have expired but I can get them renewed.

I have been teaching piano and voice lessons for years and I love drama. I think that children need lots of play that sparks their imagination such as reading, playing outside, and lots of make pretend. I think that helping with housework and meals are also very helpful and make a child more confident as they grow older. I was homeschooled and so I am very used to doing educational things and making learning a fun thing to do.

  Work Experience & Education Background
 
5 years experience, 2 references
My first job in childcare was with a 6 year old boy who was very smart but also dealt with bipolar tendencies. It was a great learning experience to deal with this situation and build a relationship with him. (2 years)

I also was a nanny for two young foster children (4 and 2) and really enjoyed working with them and doing things like potty training, teaching about manners, honesty and discipline. (2 years)

Finally, I babysat a 1 year old girl and got to experience some of the earlier stages of development and how to care for a younger child. (1 year)

I also have experience occasionally babysitting for small and large groups of kids from newborn to 11 years old.

Newborn - 3 months, 3 - 12 months, 1 - 2 years, 2 - 5 years, 5 - 10 years, over 10 years of age  
Education/Training:
High School, Graduated High School or Equivalent, College, CPR Training, First Aid Training 
I am in the process of completing my Bachelors degree in Bible through Lancaster Bible College.
