I have nurses aid training, early childhood education which have both served me well as a nanny. I did go to college for early childhood education. Although I did not complete the course, I have about every college required course for the AA degree. I took about three years off to raise my grandson. I am reliable and dependable. I am overall an outgoing and happy individual, and have a great love for children. I am loving and patient. I like to keep the children active by going on outings and other daily activities. When it comes to discipline, I want to be on the same page as the parents. I know that some parents are using different books/techniques for raising/disciplining children, I am willing to learn and work with you on any technique that you are using. I also want to be able to have open communication with the parents and be able to share some of my knowledge, with the understanding that you are the parents.      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: Other  Background Check:   Eligible to work in the U.S.:   Civil Status: Married  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   10 years experience, 2 references I started out with childcare out of a desire to stay home with my then infant daughter, who is now 27. I did in-home childcare for over three years. I got tired of the mess:-) I got a job caring for two boys in their home, along with my daughter. I was with them for five years. The mother decided at that time to become a stay-at-home mom. I then went on to work for a flight attendant and corporate lawyer for two years. It was a part live-in part live out due to parents traveling. I left nannyhood for two years due to the fact that I needed health insurance for my daughter and myself. I was able to go back to being a nanny after I got re-married 17 years ago.
