Hello, I'm Lara, a positive and energetic 20-year-old nanny who is passionate about child development and creating safe environments for children. I have eight years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborn to 10 years old. I'm currently studying for a Bachelor's of Science Degree in Forensic Science and Psychology at Trent University, attending classes three days a week - Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. However, my schedule is flexible, and we can discuss suitable timings around my study hours.
Beyond my academic pursuits, I'm fond of animals and share my home with a variety of pets including turtles, geckos, cats, a dog, and hamsters. Fluent in both English and French, I'm capable of assisting your children with their homework, particularly in math. In addition to basic caregiving tasks, I am also comfortable performing a wide range of duties like cooking, light housekeeping, grocery shopping, doing the laundry, and preparing meals for the kids. Pet care and walking dog duties are also a highlight given my love for animals.
I have a clean driver's license and my own vehicle, which I am willing to use for transporting children or running errands. I am a non-smoker with a passion for advocating for children and helping them grow and develop. Though I am currently residing in Blackstock, I am open to relocation for the right opportunity.
Seeking a full-time nanny, babysitter, housekeeper, or tutor role, I am immediately available and prepared to accommodate a live-out arrangement. Note that I am also comfortable working with children with disabilities and I am ready to adhere to any special dietary rules your family might have.
I'm currently willing to obtain a Police Check and I look forward to providing a nurturing and fun environment for your children to thrive in.
I have been babysitting various age groups starting in March 2016 when I was 12 years old. I have experience tutoring, taking care of children, toddlers, and infants and I have a 4 year old niece who I take care of frequently as well.
