I studied Family Science/Human Development for four years at the University of Maryland, College Park and have spent this past year nannying part time and full time for local families. I love children and have prior experience with caring for infants and toddlers and would love to gain more. My first job was working with an infant boy who before I knew it was 18-months with a 6-month-old sister; it was a lot of fun to watch them both and definitely a 'crash course' in infant nurturing that I appreciate having.. I have taken an American RedCross babysitter's course with CPR certification and have experience working with children from infancy to thirteen years of age. This past summer I worked as a nanny for a family with a nine-year-old boy, five-year-old girl, and two-year-old boy Monday-Wednesday. Then Thursday-Saturday I worked as an in-home mother's helper position where I cared for twin five-year-olds and a two-year-old girl. I was able to take the kids to swimming lessons, story time at the library, our local busy bodies gym, and a "Creepy Crawlers" nature learning program. I like to be creative and make each day fun and different. I try to be passionate about the kids' unique interests and enjoy seeing the world through their eyes, while helping them to cultivate their worldview. I promote reading, like to sing, do arts and crafts, and venture outdoors. I am comfortable with light housekeeping, pets, meal prep, errands, laundry, and have my own vehicle. I look forward to hearing from you to further discuss your childcare needs, as well as if my experience and qualifications might be a good fit for your family.      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, Spanish    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Roman Catholic        Work Experience & Education Background   10 years experience, 5 references 2003-2004: Cared for a 6-month-old and 18-month-old for extended periods during the morning/afternoon 2004-2005: Cared for a 7-year-old, 5-year-old, and 1-year-old during afternoons, evenings, and weekends. 2010-2012: participated on UMD Gymkana troupe--performed for elementary/middle school children 2014: Cared for a 7-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy during summer afternoons/evenings 2015: Cared for five-year-old twins and their two-year-old sister during mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends --Was a summer nanny for a family with a nine-year-old boy, five-year-old girl, and two-year-old boy. --Was a full time nanny for a family with a two-year-old boy and nine-month-old girl 2016: Cared for a six-year-old girl and two-year-old boy during mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. --Cared for a nine-year-old girl on evenings and weekends Experience caring for and interacting with younger cousins ages 3-13.       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, twins, triplets   Education/Training: High School, Graduated High School or Equivalent, College  Graduated high school in 2009 with a concentration in Spanish.
