My name is Jana. I am a fun, creative, gentle, outdoorsy, musical, patient, flexible, dedicated, punctual, positive & compassionate woman. I have completed the following St. John's First Aid training course: Emergency Community Care Certificate (CPR level B which includes Infant CPR). I also have my Food Safe Certificate & love healthy cooking. I strongly believe in guiding children to be the best that they can be and encourage this through asking them questions that give them the opportunity to find their own answers. I also believe that maintaining a safe, healthy & positive environment is important for children's growth. I am looking forward to finding the family(s) that fits well with me: available for a part time nanny position starting asap & may have more time opening up in the near future.

I have looked after children (20 plus years) as well as taught music to children of all ages in classes as well as private piano/theory lessons, organized music master classes & exams for the Royal Conservatory of Music (10 plus years). I love going to the library for story time, cooking for children, playing, making crafts & having lot's of creative time, music time (singing special songs with their name in it), walking in forest/trails/beach, going to parks to play on swings, etc., visiting Heritage Train Park, driving them to their activities and either watching and/or participating (depending of age), reading books & speaking with children about the books, completing homework & asking children skillful age appropriate questions, etc. I love aiding in building children's confidence by listening, communicating (using our words & feeling our feelings) & being positive with them. Children grow by allowing them to be their own person. So, I guide them to be the best them & allow them to empower themselves :)

Jan 21, 2015 To Whom it may concern: I am happy to provide this letter of recommendation and reference for Jana Marie for childcare. I have only recently had the pleasure of working with Jana Marie, in this capacity. However, I have known her for 14 years and have worked with her in the past. Jana Marie has an outstanding work ethic. She is very reliable, punctual and a hard worker. She is also one of the kindest, gentlest and most caring people I have ever come across. I am very pleased to have her care for my daughter. She is very attentive to her needs and incorporates playing, activity, creativity and guidance. My daughter is at ease and comfortable in her care and enjoys spending time with her. Jana Marie has extensive experience with children, it is very apparent in how she interacts with them and safety is always a top priority. She is respectful of my wishes as per childcare techniques and routines and procedures, but is also extremely capable of ad-libbing and does what needs to be done without direction. Bottom line, my mind is at ease knowing my daughter is under her care. I know my daughter will be well taken care of, treated and spoken to kindly and respectfully, and entertained and stimulated with various activities. I would highly recommend Jana Marie for childcare. Please feel free to contact me for more information. Sincerely, Kristen
