I am from a small family as my parents only had my brother and me, I being the youngest. My love for working with children developed at a very young age. My mum run a Day Care service for children from new born to age 12. I often helped her in caring for those children when I was off from school. I also helped in raising my niece and my to adopted sisters, so from that time I have been exposed to the responsibility of child care. Upon graduation from High school I taught Pre Kindergarten and also taught a class at a primary level where I helped children with reading problems. Since migrating to the United States I have had the privilege of working with three wonderful families and my experience range from working with new born to pre-teen. As a nanny my responsibilities included meal preparation and laundry for kids. Keeping their room clean and organize, play-dates and outdoor activities. I also enjoy reading to and engaging children in educational activities and assisting with homework. On a personal note I enjoy baking and cake decorating, I also love crocheting and a little knitting, reading and singing. I am an instructor in our Pathfinder Club and enjoy going camping. I also love interacting with people. I enjoy working and carry out my duties seriously and with great efficiency and is also very reliable and responsible, I also pride myself in being punctual. I am currently on my last semester doing an Associated degree in Dietetics & Nutrition Science and I have my certification in infant CPR and First Aid.

Since the children are in school full time my hours have been part time, so I am currently looking for a full time position.
