Angelica is a Thurston County Nanny because she loves to help children grow!

“I love witnessing the milestones of children over time, and I enjoy helping them learn and grow. I design age appropriate activities that promote learning in various subject fields. I enjoy keeping children engaged for the duration of the day in and out of the house. If I were asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be a Thurston County Nanny over any other profession, it would have to be that I prefer being a nanny because working with one family is very fulfilling. I enjoy the close relationship that comes with being a nanny. I like seeing the same children every day and watching them grow over time. I have been serving in some form of childcare experience for over 5 years and can honestly say I love what I do! I feel that children are always learning and always exploring which is why I encourage exploration with activities and projects that stimulate their learning, problem solving, and creativity. My goal as a Nanny is to engage children in activities that are educational and enjoyable. I am willing to do housekeeping that includes cooking, laundry, cleaning, errands, shopping, and anything else revolving around the children or the home. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives, I would say that I am energetic, creative, fun-loving, adventurous, and curious. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include vocabulary (English, Spanish, and sign language), math (numbers, counting, grouping), science (exploration and experimentation), social studies (community, manners, etc), art, and sports and gross motor skills. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me I would hope they would be adventurous and active.”

“I definitely recommend Angie as a fantastic Thurston County Nanny and child care provider. My family and I have known Angie since January of 2011, and despite no longer being employed by us other than the occasional childcare, we remain in good contact. Angie began working for us as a part-time nanny for my 11-month-old son. Her duties were to feed him, keep him clean, healthy and safe, and engage him in fun activities. It was evident from my son's disposition that he loved her, and enjoyed his time with her. During that time, she additionally cared for my 3-year-old son when he was off from preschool. She handled caring for two children with great ease, and knew how to equally provide attention to both and ensured that their needs were surpassed. For nine months, she proved to be a very dedicated and loyal employee. She had a very polite and positive disposition; she came on time to work and did it to the best of her ability. Additionally, she took feedback and instruction well. We ended up recommending her for our eldest son's preschool, in which she continued to enrich the boys' lives with art instruction. She is a talented artist, and very creative with activities and crafts for the children. She demonstrated her ability to keep not only two children, but also several, engaged and on task. She has a great talent for caring for children. I would highly recommend Angie for nanny services.”

“I had the opportunity to work with Angelica in a preschool classroom. She was an excellent lead teacher during my time there and I enjoyed working alongside Angelica. She was highly motivated to learn as much as she could to perform to the best of her capacity. Angelica would stay longer hours to do lesson plans and monitor the development of her students. She is very skilled in supervising and caring for the students, planning and preparing lessons and meals for the students, and effectively teaching and fostering a great rapport with the students. Angelica has several strengths but her main strength, from my observations, her ability to motivate the students. She was genuinely interested that her students learned and enjoyed their time in her classroom; Angelica always had something new to introduce in order to capture their attention; a game, song, or art work to reinforce the lesson of the day. In conclusion, Angelica displays the qualities that will make her a successful Thurston County Nanny. She is patient, kind, an innovator, and motivated, and in tune with the requirements of family and children relationship. I highly recommend her for a nanny position.”

“Angie came to us as a Thurston County Nanny and then a childcare provider four years ago. My son was twenty-two months old. She cared for my son every afternoon taking him to the park, reading to him and playing games with him. When he grew up and started going to school, she provided care once or twice a week, making him dinner and doing the bedtime routine (bath, reading books, etc.). Angie is smart and competent. She is trained as a teacher and is experienced in working with young children, not just entertaining but educating them. She is neat, punctual and extremely reliable. She always arrives on time and she is fun and energetic. My son adores her, and we trust her fully.”

“I have known Angie for seven years as an educator, colleague and friend. Throughout the time working with her and children I have known her to be a kind, responsible, dependable, and loving nanny and caretaker. I have seen her work with children from the age groups of infants to teenagers with confidence and control. She teaches all the children she works with in multiple facets including art, reading, and sharing to developing their gross and fine motor skills. She has always been there for the children she worked with, whether it is taking them to school, picking them up, taking care of them when sick, or reading them bedtime stories before tucking them in. Angie is an intelligent, lovely, capable, dedicated, and personable Thurston County Nanny. She is always quick on her feet, and I feel confident in saying that she is capable of handling any situation with thoughtfulness and maturity.”

“I highly recommend Angie as a Thurston County Nanny. Angie and I worked together with several families. During our time being employed together, Angie showed herself to be compassionate, timely, and responsible. She becomes an instant part of any family and not only shows great care for the children but also respect for the parents. Her childcare experience goes above and beyond physical care for the child, she makes every activity educational and fun. Angie teaches through play and has a great understanding of how to foster positive development. Angie would be a tremendous asset to any family and has my highest recommendation.”
