I'd describe my personality as caring, empathetic and optimistic. I like working with kids because I love helping them learn, grow, and develop their own personalities. I'm looking for a job that I can use my skills to help a child/children become the best version of themselves. I started working with kids when I was a teenager. Jobs after school & also full time summer nanny positions. I've also worked in daycare centers & in-home daycare for 14 years. In my spare time, I like to spend time with my family. I enjoy being outside, camping, fishing and boating. One thing you should know about me is I'm excited and looking forward to hopefully getting the chance to help you with your child/children. My skills include problem solving, creating thinking, decision making, and having compassion for your child/children.
Kim has been an absolutely wonderful caregiver for our family. She cared for our toddler and newborn for over a year, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our kids adore her! She spends quality time reading, doing crafts, playing cars, and going on walks. She always brings fun activities and creative art projects that keep them engaged and excited. Kim is incredibly reliable and always on time. She communicates clearly and consistently, and we love that she sends pictures throughout the day so we can see what the kids are up to. She also goes above and beyond by helping around the house—picking up toys, washing bottles, and offering extra help wherever needed. Her kindness, initiative, and genuine care for our children really set her apart. We always felt 100% confident and at ease knowing our kids were in her care. We would hire her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend Kim to any family looking for a trustworthy, engaging, and dependable caregiver.
