"For all of my life my father has worked full time practicing law and my mother has worked at least part time practicing law and volunteered the rest of her time in the community and with our schools. I had a great childhood! One of the main reasons why I want to work with children is to share and protect that innocence in their lives. One of the most important things that I learned from my parents, especially my mom, was the ability to travel and adapt to new situations easily. In January of 2003 I began volunteering in the children's ministry. I worked as a volunteer with the church from the beginning of 2003 until September of 2004, when I moved to London. While volunteering, I taught small groups of 1st and 2nd grade girls and all the elementary school children on Sunday mornings. I supervised the preschool on Sunday mornings, accompanied children to the zoo, national parks, and the movies. In August of 2003 I began working as an assistant teacher for the 3 and 4 year old class. While working there I learned so much about how children respond to the different ways adults talk to them, the ways they learn, and their enjoyment for life. I enjoyed being able to hang out with these children in their home environments, and being able to see how they react to the everyday things around them as well as new things that children discover everyday. In October 2004 I moved to London to study children's ministry with a mission organization. While in London, and as part of my study I worked with a church in their Children's Ministry department. I did a lot of work with inner city children of all backgrounds. While in London I learned even more about how children from different backgrounds and life's learn and interact with their peers as well as with adults I feel that working with children is the right career path for me! I want to be a nanny because the area of children's work that I enjoy the most is the one-on-one interaction and teaching life skills and personal growth. I feel like it is so important to protect the innocence of children while helping them and watching them grow into amazing adults. I have been serving in some form of childcare for over five years and can honestly say love what I do! I feel children are an adventure; a tool to help every adult learn more about them selves; and our future! My goal as a Nanny is to provide safety and a watchful eye; I am there to help parents teach their children great life skills and personal growth, while protecting the innocence and fun of being a child. Whatever I do with a child to help them grow must be done along side the parents. I love doing art and exploration projects or events with children.

"I come from a home with both mother and father and an older sister. Growing up was a very positive experience for me as my parents were very involved in each aspect of my life. I might say that we were an "All American" family in that both parents worked, we took music lessons, had family vacations, ate dinner together, and were given opportunities that not every family gets to have.

When my children were small I used to nanny for four other children. I really miss being a part of teaching children right from wrong, and being a part of molding them to become smart, healthy individuals! I love to cook healthy nutritious meals! Currently I am in the process of cooking for friends who are on a weight watchers program so they get the correct portions and proper nutrition to achieve their weight goals.
