The perfect Vermilion County After School Program is here with ABC Nannies like Amy who go above and beyond in taking care of children.

“I am an enthusiastic, diligent, and energetic individual who thoroughly enjoys working with children. Coming from a close-knit family of six, where children were always valued and cherished, I have developed a strong passion for childcare. Over the past decade, I have gained valuable experience through my involvement with the Vermilion County After School Program, starting as an aide in a preschool classroom. After completing college, I had the privilege of being a Nanny to a five and three year old for several months, followed by assisting in a second grade classroom catering to children with special needs. The reason I aspire to be a Nanny is because I firmly believe in providing a nurturing and creatively stimulating environment at home, which I believe is one of the most beneficial things a child can have. It also happens to be incredibly enjoyable! Having been engaged in various forms of childcare for more than 10 years, I can genuinely say that I love what I do. For me, the focal point of any family is the children. They exude creativity, joy, and curiosity—making being a nanny one of the most rewarding occupations. My objective as a Nanny is to establish a stable and supportive atmosphere that fosters the growth and learning of children to their fullest potential. Additionally, I am willing to assist with household chores upon request, such as laundry, dusting, vacuuming, and light cleaning in general. If I were to describe myself using five adjectives, they would be friendly, fun, warm, creative, and supportive. In terms of daily activities for the family I care for, I would love to incorporate outdoor pursuits such as sports and visits to the playground. Baking, arts and crafts, and even music lessons (if the family is interested) are also activities I would like to include. With my background in piano, flute, and classical vocal training, I can introduce music into our routine. We could even plan multicultural days to explore different cultures and languages—I am fluent in both French and Italian. For example, we could have a day where we make French food and delve into the French culture and language. When envisioning the ideal family seeking a Nanny like myself, I imagine a close-knit and warm family that is searching for a Nanny who can provide support and lots of enjoyment.”

“The Vermilion County After School Program witnessed an extraordinary display of dedication from Amy as she went beyond the required job expectations. As a teacher in a class of five children with autism, I rely on the assistance of a 1:1 teaching aide for each student to effectively manage their school day safely. This role demands flexibility, creativity, and quick-thinking. Amy seamlessly fulfilled numerous responsibilities in my classroom, including implementing behavior modification plans, adapting coursework to suit each student's abilities, providing reinforcement through social praise, songs, stories, and video games, and maintaining a calm and compassionate demeanor when confronted with challenging behaviors like kicking, hitting, and property destruction. Despite her limited experience in special needs education, Amy excelled in her role and showcased an incredible willingness to learn and adapt her approach for the benefit of the children's learning and enjoyment. I am thoroughly impressed with Amy's positive impact, and she is a valuable asset to the Vermilion County After School Program. Even though substitutes often avoided our classroom due to the children's challenges, Amy embraced the opportunity to support our students."too difficult"The Vermilion County After School Program was fortunate to have Amy as part of their team.
