About Myself:
I'm 19, I am very responsible, reliable and dependable; I place deep emphasis on being on time and keeping to my obligations. I recently took on a new vehicle, so transportation will never be an issue. I am rather laid back, friendly, professional, and I take things seriously. I don't smoke, I don't drink, or do drugs. I am open to doing a drug test or background check if needed and paid for by the family.
My primary focus is furthering my education, I've been accepted to MTSU and will be attending next spring (2016) for Computer Information Systems as I'm very interested in all aspects of technology, and until then I am focusing on getting some certifications done and otherwise getting some financial obligations paid off so I have less to worry about when I begin my classes. Note: For a full time, permanent nanny position I am willing to work my spring classes around my work schedule.
Experience:
I've provided childcare for 6 years for my own family as well as individual families that have contacted me by referral or by my ad postings. I have experience with children of a variety ages, from newborn to 12 years old, with my maximum I will watch at a time being 6 children; However, I do prefer to babysit 4 children or less at a time so there is the time to give each child the individual 1 on 1 time they need to grow and develop. I have provided care for disabled children, including those with autism, blindness, and difficulty with mobility. My CPR and First Aid certifications expired a while ago, and I do plan to renew them once I am able to afford to do so. Otherwise, I consider myself to do quite well with children, I tend to their needs while also ensuring they continue to grow and develop each day.
Availability:
My availability is completely open. I am available anytime. If this changes, I will update this posting.
Note: I prefer if I provide care for 1-2 families on a regular basis, rather than a lot of miscellaneous date nights for many different families.
What I provide:
Care in your home, not in a facility or otherwise.
General childcare -- Supervision, Medicine administration, Meal prep, Entertainment, Baths, Dressing, Diaper Changes, and nap times
Educational activities -- Art & Science projects, ABCs, Writing/Spelling, Reading, Math, and more.
Homecare- Basic light cleaning up after meals, children's activities, and otherwise. I am willing to offer further cleaning services for a higher weekly rate.
I also provide, but require further compensation:
Rides to/from school or family, Tutoring, Outings (Discovery center, Pool, etc), Swimming lessons, light errands or shopping, etc. Open to requests.
Rate & Payment:
My rate starts at minimum wage, that being $7.25 an hour, and increases depending on the needs of the child(ren), their age, and how many. My rate can be discussed, and worked out as needed as I do not have a very set cost, and am willing to work with families.
I prefer a setup where a nanny contract is put in place, to protect both myself, and the family I provide care for; if a nanny contract is not done, payment must be in advance either weekly or bi-weekly.
For families receiving government childcare assistance: I am willing to do the paperwork needed to accept that as a form of payment!
