In my four years with both girls I've nannied for it has been fun yet educational in the most fun way possible! For my current 6 year old Iโve worked with her letter and number recognition, writing her name, sight words, learning to read with the โBob Booksโ collection, math etc. While we do enjoy learning we also have plenty of time for leisure. Some of our favorite things we do outside of education purposes are going to the park, zoo, museum, play dates of course, creative play, and attending open play spaces.
