  About Me
 
I am a happy, active and health conscious person who grew up in a loving family where I learned good values. I love working with children and feel it is meaningful to bring as much to the job as possible. I do this by supporting them for who they are and by bringing in lots of activities to teach and engage them, as well as by adhering to the family's preferred child rearing philosophy. I also like to provide general support for busy parents by helping with household management, being a cheerful, flexible and creative team player. I like animals too, and enjoy them when there are some at job or belonging to my housemates.
My healthy lifestyle means I have lots of energy to keep up with busy children, and am available for many years. I like to hike, walk, garden, travel, read, sew and attend cultural events of many kinds. I am open to new ideas and different cultures, there is always something new to learn.
I would like to provide excellent care and to be the best nanny/family assistant a family could possibly have for many years.
Thank you for reading about me.
