I began working with children right out of high school, while attending Kennesaw State as an English major, and 7 years later. I am still alive. LOL. But in all honesty, I really enjoy children. I am a pretty down to earth, fun-loving individual who enjoys reading (my "kids" love when I "do the voices". ), and music. I am considerably trustworthy, with a positive attitude and strong work ethic. Very rarely do I have to raise my voice. I am usually very calm and easy going and find that children respond well to that. I am very balanced in that I can be strict when necessary but love to have fun. I am also a strong proponent of the use of positive redirection.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: No  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets:   Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check:   Eligible to work in the U.S.:   Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   1 years experience, 3 references I have several years of experience in childcare centers as a lead infant/toddler/preschool teacher, and I have also assisted with my family's home daycare. I am non-smoker certified in first aide & CPR with reliable transportation and a valid driver's license. For the past year I have had the awesome privilege of working with an amazing family of four, looking after their active 2 year old boy (and that's an understatement. ) and his precious 7 month old sister. As their child care provider I fostered an atmosphere of love and fun. We would read stories, take walks, create artwork, and simply make the most out of each day. I was responsible for child related housekeeping, but would often assist wherever I saw a need. As a nanny I felt then, as I do now, that my job was to help make "mom and dad's " job easier.      Childcare experience within the following age groups: Newborn - 3 months, 3 - 12 months, 1 - 2 years, 2 - 5 years   Education/Training: College, First Aid Training, CPR Training      Job Preferences   Seeking work as a : Nanny or Nanny/Housekeeper or Mother's Helper or Babysitter  Position Type: Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time  Work Hours: 40 - 50 hours/week  Position Duration:    3 - 12 months      1 - 2 years      greater than 2 years      As Long as Needed   Childcare Duties:    Cooking      Light Housekeeping      Running errands      Preparing meals      Transporting children      Children's Laundry      Limited/light housekeeping      Occasional supervision of childrens friends/guests      Ironing children's clothing as needed      Children's baths and dressing      Help with homework      Adhere to special dietary rules (vegetarian, kosher, lactose intolerant, etc.)      Packing Children's lunches      Mending Children's clothing as required      Planning activities for the children     Desired Start Date: November 21, 2008  Desired Salary: $1800 - $2000/month  Will work with up to: Four or more  Will travel with the family: Yes  Will care  Special Needs Children: Yes  Housekeeping Duties:    Keep a grocery list      Initial preparation of family's dinner as directed      Keep the kitchen tidy during work hours      Greeting/serving household guests      Plant care (indoor)      Family laundry      Family sheets/towels and other linens      Grocery shopping regularly as directed      Dust/Vacuum entire house, minumum weekly frequency      Sweep kitchen floor daily      Mop Kitchen floor weekly, minumum weekly frequency      Run/Empty dishwasher daily      Empty kitchen trash as required      Errands, including dry cleaning, as directed
