Babysitter and Nanny - TIFFANY A. (User #271849)

I am currently seeking occasional days/nights/weekends.

I am a 28 year old mother of a delightful 2 year old. We both love to be with other people and learning new things all the time. I do sign fluent American Sign Language as well as Exact English (SEE I and SEE II). I have more than 13 years of paid experience in working with children from birth to high school. I have experience with a wide variety of special needs (down syndrome, autism, asperger's, Deafness, Blind, deaf/blind). I am not afraid to get dirty or look silly to have some fun with the kids.

Church nurseries, Vacation Bible School, Sunday school, Child development centers, Special Olympics, Field Trips with charges and private homes. These are all places that I have interacted with children. My favorites are the mixed ages, because the younger ones keep the older ones thinking and using their imaginations, while the older ones challenge the motor and verbal skills of the younger ones! What a wonderful combination!! I love sensory activities, arts and crafts, playing outside, and board games. The kids I have now would tell you that I make the best homemade hot chocolate and popcorn, and never lack for something fun to do!

Don't want your child(ren) sitting in front of the TV all day? No problem! I love to interact and be creative with the kids instead of watching television all day long...

I am available on an as needed basis. Need a date night? Looking for someone to run those crazy errands you never have time for? Grocery shopping and errand running are my specialty! My general philosophy is to make the parents' lives as simple as possible when returning home, so that they can spend time with their children. I am very good at this and still attending to the children, playing games and giggling! I do not leave a home unless it is cleaner than when I arrived. You shouldn't have to spend your valuable time at home doing menial tasks. That is your precious time with your children.

A note about the pics: The older children in the pictures are my most recent charges. I have been with this family for 3 years (some fulltime, some parttime). The infant, of course, is my son! The handsome man accompanying the child is my husband Zeb.

Contact information for references will be given to serious inquiries only. This is per their request.

My resume only includes my most recent post. For a more comprehensive letter detailing my childcare experience and philosophies, please contact me. I will forward it and my references immediately.

I am often available last minute, but better to call than email. I look forward to working with you soon. My son does not, generally, accompany me to weekend positions.
