My name is Valerie and I have been working as a nanny up until a few months ago while receiving my M. in Therapeutic Recreation. I have 17-year-old daughter, and teach painting and drawing to children and seniors. I am calm and patient while encouraging some rules that make it pleasant for everyone to get along. I have the ability to calm children with games and songs. For babies, I have the experience of my own child who is a very calm and intelligent teenager. My professional experience includes working with children with physical disabilities and autism. Please let me know if the position is still available. I would be happy to meet and provide references.
