“As an individual, my passion lies in making a positive impact on children's lives, which is why I believe I would be an ideal candidate for the Polk County After School Program. With a strong devotion to teaching and mentoring kids, I continuously strive to be the best that I can be. My experience in the school district and with the Polk County After School Program has provided me with a diverse skill set. I have chosen to pursue a career in the Nanny profession because it presents an excellent opportunity for me to gain further experience in the childcare field while doing what I love; working with children! For over 6 years, I have been immersed in various forms of childcare and I can honestly say that I am passionate about it. The children, to me, are the key to a brighter future and it is crucial that they are treated with utmost respect, care, and love. One of my goals would be to plan and organize fun and creative activities that children would enjoy. Additionally, I am open to taking on light cleaning responsibilities that may be required by the family. If I were to describe myself in five adjectives, I would say that I am caring, conscientious, responsible, creative, and respectful. In terms of the daily plan for the family I care for, I would love to incorporate activities such as art projects, attending community events and programs, and ensuring there is dedicated playtime as well as rest time. As a certified art teacher, I am particularly interested in introducing art-related activities like painting. The perfect family seeking a Nanny like myself would ideally be easy going, active, and supportive in their child's life. Additionally, I would hope that they are understanding and appreciative of the role I play as a caretaker in their child's life."

“Katie has been taking care of our two-year-old son for the past three years as part of the Polk County After School Program. Throughout this time, Katie has consistently displayed punctuality and a positive interaction with our children. She diligently follows the instructions we provide, especially regarding meals and bedtime routines. We are particularly impressed with Katie's conscientiousness in managing our son's multiple food allergies, ensuring his safety at all times. When necessary, she efficiently administers antihistamines to him. Furthermore, it is noteworthy that Katie takes the initiative to clean up after dinner without being asked. Katie's ability to communicate and engage with both my husband and me is remarkable. Despite her young age, she exhibits a level of maturity that surpasses expectations. We have observed her remaining calm under pressure and effectively expressing her thoughts and concerns. Additionally, Katie effortlessly adapted to caring for our now five-year-old son and eighteen-month-old daughter. We believe her prior experience working in the Polk County After School Program, combined with her general child care background, make her an exceptional candidate for the role of a nanny. Having experienced Katie's excellent care firsthand, I wholeheartedly support her ambition to become a nanny. Without any hesitation, I highly recommend her to your esteemed Polk Nanny Agency.”
