Warm, engaging, finds teachable moments in everyday life, uses creativity to enhance learning skills
| I live in the Thornhill, L4J area and would ideally like to work relatively close to home. I have raised my own 4 children who are now 26 1/2, 25 1/2, 1 22 and 19. Aside from that I have taught in church and led in kids day camps as well as I was a swimming instructor/ lifeguard for 8 years. Following this job I was headcook in a children's overnight camp and then worked for 2 different YMCA childcare centers for 5 years. Also a few other centers for shorter stints of time. I have been a temporary nanny for a family with 2 little girls as weĺl as another family of 2 little boys, however I am looking for the next family that I can be of help to.

Someone that is responsible, enthusiastic, experienced, and flexible with hours.
| I have plenty of experience working with children of all ages. I was a soccer program instructor for the city of Markham, a sports camp counsellor for the city of Markham, volunteered as a teachers assistant for a kindergarten class, and have babysat for many families. I'd like to think that I am very mature for my age, and have the enthusiastic and outgoing personality needed for childcare. Due to my past work experiences, I have gained and improved on many skills such as patience, multitasking, responsibility, and optimistic. It is very important to be able to connect with the children that are under your care so that they feel comfortable and are able to respect you while having fun! I am in my fourth year of studying therapeutic recreation at the University of Waterloo, and I learn about the importance of leisure activity for people of all ages. With all of the child care experience that I have, I am well aware of the time, energy, love and care that is required for this job opportunity.

Psychology BScH Graduate, High Five and CPR certified, with 6+ years experience working with kids
| I have five years of camp counselling experience and two years of experience as a children's program instructor with the city of Markham. In both roles, I was responsible for organizing and running activities for 10+ kids, while ensuring both their safety and happiness. I had the opportunity to interact with children with a diverse range of needs, such as children with ASD, down syndrome, and brittle bone syndrome. Consequently, I am comfortable working with a wide range of children. I have acquired CPR training and I am certified with High Five: Principles of Healthy Child Development. I believe all of these certifications have enhanced my overall knowledge and ability to safely care for children. In addition, I grew up with a nanny who took outstanding care of myself and my siblings. Thus, I have seen and experienced first-hand the way that children should be cared for and I intend to hold myself to the same standard of excellence. As well, I possess a BScH in psychology which has reinforced how crucial it is for children to have an enriching environment during their early developmental years. Overall, I am a very friendly, kind and nurturing person who also has a knack for cleaning.

I enjoy being in a family household, I am honest, discrete and trustworthy.
| I am a 41 year old female who has over 30 years of experience with children. I am on an extended holiday staying with my aunt in Thornhill, I currently don't have a permit or visa to allow me to work in Canada but I intend (with assistance from my employer) to obtain all required paperwork. I have looked after children between the ages of 1 month to 16 years, I have been a certified first aider but would need to renew my certification. I recently completed a British Sign Language course so am able to communicate to a certain degree, but aware that American Sign Language is used in Canada. My most relevant paid experience was in a primary school and was responsible for 4 autistic boys aged 6 & 7. I was in charge of the daily care while school, aiding them in their studies, helping them behaviourally to ensure they were able to cope with the situations that faced them. The work was challenging and very emotional but also very rewarding. In my most recent un-paid experience I looked after 3 children aged 3,5 & 9, I was responsible for the general wellbeing, meals, helping with reading, homework and the bedtime routine and playing games both educational and fun.

Fun, Loving Nanny
| I am truly passionate about children specifically infants and toddlers. I genuinely feel that excellent nurturing care at this critical stage will provide the foundation that they would need for the rest of their lives. I am a Registered Nurse with one year of pediatric experience and over 5 years of babysitting experience with infants and toddlers. After months of reflection, I have decided to change my career in pursuit of a career in early childhood education. What I loved most about my past babysitting experience was the discovery of the uniqueness of each child. I tried to learn their cues and then care for them in a manner that strengthened their interests and matched the desires of the parents. I would love to speak with you at your earliest convenience and see if I might be a good match for your family.

Hajar: 22 years old, interested in a safe and suitable job for a young, committed lady.
| What can I say? I love children. I love their honesty and innocence, and absolute sweetness. I feel safe and comfortable working with children, and have been doing so for many years now. It started with taking care of my own baby sister since birth. Then I worked my first job as a kindergarten English teacher which later progressed to another teaching position for English, ESL, Speech & Drama and Arts & Crafts. My kids were aged from 5 to 17 years old and came from diverse backgrounds. My responsibilities towards the younger kids aside from teaching were taking care of their eating and hygiene during class and, most importantly, their emotional well-being. Personality- wise, I am a caring, helpful, creative, energetic and smart young lady. I read every day and I love to paint and draw. I skateboard and cycle. I love being outdoors. I’m great at teaching and helping out with homework. I like making things like cardboard houses and jewellery and I can bake really delicious cookies. I am a competent and healthy cook.
