I have recently moved to the Houston area to start a new life for myself and so far, besides the extremely hot days, I am loving it. I am here with my parents who have been very supportive with everything and have been very helpful with my transition here. Upon moving, I have made myself available to assist with child care anywhere its needed. I love children and just being in the presence of them brightens my day in such a way that cannot be explained. Children are little gifts from God, no matter the age, race, condition or religion. I love them all. Being a nanny to me is the next best thing until I decide to have my own children. Plus who wouldn't love to get paid while doing what they love.      Valid Driver's License: No  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Willing to obtain  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   4 years experience, 2 references I have worked as a professional nanny for the past 4 years.

She performed extremely well during her period of employment at our home. Anisa works really well under pressure and when called upon at the last minute. Her attention to detail and love for all children, made it especially hard to see her move away. She was highly motivated to learn as much as she could and performed to her best capacities. She frequently put in long hours to develop lesson plans for my children and monitor their progress. She understands her limitations as a caregiver and never over steps the boundaries. She is very skilled in the following: Supervising and caring for children Planning, preparing and serving meals for children and able to perform other housekeeping duties Bathing, dressing and feeding infants and children Preparing formulas and changing diapers Anisa has a number of strengths but her main strength, from my observations, is her capability to motivate children. She always seemed genuinely interested in my children s mental development and presented new ways of learning that captured their attention. In summary, Anisa displayed the qualities that make a caregiver successful. She is very reliable, trustworthy, motivated, and in tune with the requirements of family and children. Once again, I highly recommend her for a Camp Counselor position. Please feel free to contact me on my cell. Sincerely, Christine McNabb       Jovonna Mosley  This reference is my godmother. I have watched her children for a number of years on and off. She is available to answer any questions you may have.
