  About Me
 
Hello,

I have over 10 years of combined experience between Nannying in homes, Teaching in Private Daycares and Schools, and Coaching. My bachelor's degree is in P-12th Grade Health Education with over 15 credit hours in Early Childhood Education.

Other Qualifications Include:
CPR/AED/First Aid/O2 Certified
State of Ohio Preschool-12th Grade Teaching License
Passed Early Childhood Praxis II
15 Credit Hours Specialized in Early Childhood
Reliable Transportation
Valid Passport
Clean Driving Record
NFHS Concussion Testing and Safe Sport Certified
Pupil Activity Permit
AFAA Group Exercise Certification
YMCA of the USA Group Exercise Certification

I have found that I have a sweet spot for the little ones as well as the 6 foot tall children. I do, however, specialize in the months leading up to infants being able to walk. I look forward to this precious time. I enjoy communicating with new parents and helping them weather the transitions of infants to older infants to toddlers. I have seen MANY infants transition from one milestone to the next in their own sweet time.

When I am not holding babies, I live an active and healthy lifestyle with beach volleyball being my number one choice for workouts and fun. I am also a Group Exercise and strength Instructor through my local YMCA. I thrive off of a full and fit lifestyle. I have the courage to get dirty with the boys in the mud or play dress with the girls indoors. From rocking babies to chasing toddlers, I have the stamina and energy to become a great asset to the right family. I am also a dog lover. I don't have any children of my own, so I count 4 legged friends as part of the family.

Overall, I am a cheerful and zealous person who isn't afraid of an adventure or changing diapers. I have full availability beginning on Monday May 23rd.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Feel free to give me a call anytime at ###-###-####.

Sincerely,
Nicole
