I have cared for up to 4 children at once for nannying ranging in age from newborn to 13, but for my part time job, I have had 8-33 kids in structured programs under my direction and with proper adult volunteer ratios. I have references both personally and professionally. My greatest passion is positively impacting children and providing a safe space for them.For the past 10 years, I've had the joy of caring for children of all ages through structured programs, nannying and care and also have a 7-year-old boy. I hold a college degree, emphasized in youth and currently work part-time as a Children's Ministries Director at a church in Boise. My approach is patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I enjoy playing board games and educational games with children, along with leading art projects and love being outside. I am First Aid/CPR certified.I believe in enforcing preferred household schedules and rules. I always follow parents' preferred method of communication regarding their child's day. I am a non-smoker, have a car and am comfortable with pets. I am also willing to help around the house where needed, including laundry, light cleaning, meal prep and clean up, etc.
