I bring many essential skills and qualities to ensure the well-being and development of the children under my care. Patience is critical as I navigate each child's varying needs and behaviours, while clear communication with both children and parents is crucial for adequate care. I pride myself on my creativity, always creating engaging and educational activities. Safety awareness is paramount, and I always ensure a safe environment. With first aid and CPR certifications, I am prepared to handle any emergencies that may arise. I have worked in aftercare and summer camp programs at Elmwood School with children aged 4 to 15. I have nannied for four families who happily provide reference letters for extra comfort. To summarize my child care services encompass supervision, providing educational opportunities, facilitating playtime for social and cognitive development, preparing food, assisting with homework, managing transportation if needed, and maintaining a tidy environment through light housekeeping duties.
