About Sharon

I am a capable, energetic and loving Nanny with experience in childcare tailored to the specific needs of the child and desires of their parents. I have completed the 90 hour Early Childhood Education certification course and possess CPR/AED/Firstaid Certification. I am hardworking, honest and able to take the initiative to go above and beyond. I believe care giving is a calling and each child deserves your very best every minute you are with them. I have provided care for children, ranging from newborn to teen. My care giving experience began when I was 13, babysitting for family, friends and neighbors. During summers, I volunteered at a camp for special needs children. During my high school years, I held a daily babysitting position caring for an 8-month-old little girl for approximately four hours each day. I am a mother of one grown daughter and the grandmother of two grandsons of whom I was their primary caregiver since they were 6 weeks old. I have volunteered in my churches infant and toddler nurseries and taught in our preschool and elementary Sunday school for eight years. I currently volunteer in the middle school youth program. I have been a volunteer and guest reader in my grandson's elementary school. Most current nanny position was caring for a premature infant. Also, caregiver part-time for two children (15 months and 3 years old). For the past two years, I have been a caregiver for two families on an occasional/date night basis. When I began these positions the children were 15 months old. I love holding, rocking, singing and reading to infants/children. I enjoy spending time with them because they are so much fun to be with, watching and encouraging their growth, discoveries and development. I appreciate their complete openness and honesty. I enjoy being outdoors, playing games and reading. People describe me as a loving, caring, fun, and compassionate person who is trustworthy and possesses an excellent work ethic.
