I pride myself on my capability to foster young minds as well as promote and encourage a child’s physical, mental, social and emotional development. I am a self-starter, patient, family-oriented, outgoing, and flexible, and demonstrate superior communication skills. I am an avid reader, writer, photographer & crafter and enjoy sharing my skills and passions with others. On my days off, I am usually found with a book in my hand sitting in the nearest cozy chair with decaf iced coffee in hand, working on the latest DIY project and not finishing it, museums, taking photos, getting lost in a city or taking a hike on a beautiful trail. Take me to the nearest bookstore I am like a kid in a candy store – I like candy stores too. Mmmmm…Chocolate. I give 110 in children’s education and futures by babysitting outside of my full-time nanny position. I am quick on my feet and always ready and wanting to create a wonderland of new and exciting adventures. I enjoy all types of music and have a love for classic films and black & white photography. I am a child at heart with great tickling skills and not afraid to make someone’s day brighter by being silly. I am great at art projects/activities, coloring (staying in the lines) but lousy at drawing, goofy dancing, silly voices and a lover of animals and anything in or by the water.       Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Jewish        Work Experience & Education Background   8 years experience, 5 references • 7+ years’ experience as a Professional Nanny • Experience working with children in both Private & Public sectors • Experienced in working with children on the Autism/Asperger’s Spectrum, FAS, Down’s Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, students with IEPs & children within the system • MA in Child Advocacy & Policy with a concentration in Public Welfare • CPR and First Aid Certified • Able to Travel Internationally & Domestic • Experience with multiples • Active, Motivated, Trustworthy, Team Player, Reliable, and Creative • Over 3 years’ experience with preemies/infants • Willing to relocate • Flexibility       Childcare experience within the following age groups: Newborn - 3 months, 3 - 12 months, 1 - 2 years, 2 - 5 years, 5 - 10 years, over 10 years of age, special needs children, twins, triplets   Education/Training: Master's Degree  Montclair State University ● Master of Arts in Child Advocacy & Policy with a concentration in Public Welfare Graduated 2015 St. Cloud State University ● Bachelor of Science in Community Psychology with a concentration in Art and Child & Family Development Graduated 2008 Child Development/Teaching Background Children’s Home Society & Family Services, Saint Paul, MN | April 2009-November 2009 • Provided assistance to lead teacher in classrooms of children ages 6 months to 5 years old • Ensured a safe and enjoyable learning environment for all children • Promoted and maintained a positive relationship with staff, children and their families Behavioral Dimensions, Inc., Hopkins, MN | June 2008 - September 2008 • Administered in-home therapy to families with children with severe Autism • Provided one-on-one instruction in language, social and behavioral development • Use of Applied Behavior Analysis and Discrete Trial Training with Systematic Generalization Strategies Horace Mann Elementary, Saint Paul, MN | September 2007 - December 2007 • Assisted third grade teacher with daily projects and classroom management • Encouraged students to work independently on classroom assignments and learning activities • Provided one-on-one tutoring on an ad hoc basis Amherst Wilder Foundation, Saint Paul, MN | June 2006 - August 2007 • Residential Treatment Center for children ages 13-18 • Supported ‘at risk’ children in an educational setting • Coordinated student assessments and counseling;
