Lovina P.     Age 54      Female      Chicago  - 2001 south michigan   Member ID: 11834  Seeking work as a : Nanny or Babysitter  Position Type: Live-In or Live-Out, Full Time      Join now for access this candidate's contact details       About Me   My name is Lovina P. a mother with two children and an immigrant from west Africa Ghana. I am now a permanent resident in the United states and doing what I love to do best which is taking care of kids. Taking care of kids has been something that I have been doing for the past 20years regardless of their age. whiles in Ghana I took care of 10-15 kids every week including weekends and holidays without not a single problem. I always go by what the parents ask me to do and do not take the chance to do something that might cause a problem. if I feel there might be an option which I think might be of help I will contact the parent first before proceeding. I am very calm, respectful, patient and very honest with people so I don't even allow my friends to come to the house when I am taking care of someone else's kids. I am very open and whiling to do what ever I am told to do.
