To handle kids behavior and encourage good actions in them, as good habits start with the first steps and they are apt to learn anything. So I always focused on their positive development. An example of this is a child saying that he cannot do a simple thing, like putting on socks. On the first day I can teach him/her and ask her to try it. Any evolution I give a compliment, like "thank you for trying", "next time you'll get it" ,"knew you could do it" you're already a big boy" and in the end he'll feel so proud he'll want to put on his socks and also the shoes alone every day. With babies, for example, I learned to encourage them to be affectionate and also to draw attention to actions that are unfavorable, such as throwing things. Even very young they are able to understand what we say.

Vanessa was our Au Pair for a year, during the height of the pandemic and she was so wonderful to have in our home and help out with our two toddler boys! As a bonus, she also loves pets and was lovely to our dog and took care of him on many occasions. As a care provider for our kids, she was warm, loving and caring to the boys, treating them as if they were her own. She communicated well with us and was always punctual, reliable and going above and beyond! She always encouraged the boys to go out to play, get involved in activities and work to develop them outside of just caring for them. I highly recommend Vanessa as a babysitter for her experience with my kids, as well as for her sweet character and respectful nature. She was an absolutely pleasure to work with and have in our home!
