My name is Heather and I immigrated to Canada with my family 10 years ago. I am 56 years old, married and have 2 daughters who are in their mid twenties. My husband served with the British Forces which enabled me to travel around Europe and work with children in many different environments. I worked as a Preschool/ Nursery Manager whilst I lived in England and achieved an outstanding Ofsted inspection (Ofsted is the UK national governing body on all childcare activities) at my last setting. I have an NVQ level 4 in childcare education and have gained many other childcare qualifications such as First Aid, Behaviour Management and Special Needs training over the years. I enjoy Hill walking, cycling and spending time with my own family. I am an honest, reliable person and since arriving in Canada I have cared for many children who are now old enough to attend daycare or school. I really enjoy and get great satisfaction from looking after and developing young children. I have worked with children aged 3 month to 5 years since 1999. From the year 2004 I worked as a Nursery/Preschool Manager in both Europe and the United Kingdom. I immigrated to Canada in 2014 and have worked with two sets of twin boys in their own homes until they were old enough to attend daycare. Additional Experiences/Qualifications: I have attended many courses such as Safeguarding Children, Child Protection, Equal Opportunities Awareness, Food Hygiene, Working with under 2s, Behaviour Management, Parental Involvement, Basic Communication Development, Fire Safety, Loss and Seperation Training, Leadership Makeover Training.

I'm Vanessa, a 31-year-old caring mother, looking to transition into professional childcare from my current career in drywall finishing. Having raised my own son, who has a syndrome affecting his speech and motor skills, I've become an expert in catering to the special needs of children with learning difficulties. As a native bilingual speaker of English and French, I weave language learning into my day-to-day activities with my son, and extend the same approach with kids I supervise. I am available full-time or part-time throughout the week, from Monday to Friday. With my passion for arts and crafts, your children will be engaged in various creative activities such as knitting, sewing, drawing, painting, writing, and even making jewelry and candles! I believe learning with fun leads to a more in-depth understanding and better retention of activities. In addition to childminding, my services also extend to cooking (I'm a vegetarian but I can prepare meals with meat as well), light housekeeping, helping with homework, pet care, and laundry among others. Moreover, I'm ready to explore places if interest like the zoo, science museums or spray lakes in my safe car (Rav 4 2021). In driving kids on outings or to appointments, safety and punctuality are twin priorities for me. Of course, this would require you to have passes and other necessary permissions. I strive to provide a supportive and loving environment while adjusting to each child’s individual needs. While I cannot relocate, I assure my full commitment and dedication to your family. As a live-out nanny, I am willing to take on the responsibility of four or more children. I am based in Cochrane. Having ten years of experience in handling children from various age groups and with different needs, I am hoping to begin this new chapter of my journey by the beginning of 23rd January 2024. My nanny services extend to help children with disabilities, tying with my past experience with my son. I am ready to provide a police check upon request. Please feel free to contact me if you believe I would be a perfect fit for your family! I am very excited about the possibility of working with you! I'm the oldest of two families with 4 children (parents separated). From the age of 12 I looked after my brothers and sisters. Preparing breakfast, supper and making them do their schoolwork. I also babysat my cousins and other children along the way. Let me tell you, after babysitting two of your twin brothers .... You're ready for anything ahah! I've also been the mother of a son with a rare syndrome for 2 years. His learning has been slowed down and unfortunately always will be. So I have to do my utmost for his learning, both in terms of language and motor skills.

I come from a close-knit family that values education, empathy, and hard work. Being part of a family that prioritizes care and support has greatly influenced my approach to child care. My background includes several years of hands-on experience working with children of various age groups, where I’ve developed a deep understanding of their developmental needs. I am a compassionate, patient, and reliable individual who finds great joy in nurturing and educating children. My interests include early childhood education, child psychology, and creating engaging, educational activities that promote growth and learning. In my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking, and volunteering in community programs focused on child welfare and development. Potential employers will find that my dedication to providing a safe, nurturing environment for children is matched by my enthusiasm for continuous learning and professional growth. My strong communication skills, combined with my ability to connect with children on a personal level, make me an ideal candidate for roles in child care and early education. My hobbies and interests outside of work further contribute to my ability to create well-rounded, enriching experiences for the children in my care. My child care experience has been deeply fulfilling and diverse, spanning various roles and settings. I have worked with children of different age groups, ranging from infants to school-aged children, providing care in both home and educational environments. My responsibilities included ensuring the children’s safety, nurturing their development, and fostering a positive, supportive atmosphere. I have experience in creating and implementing age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and social skills. I focused on establishing routines that include playtime, educational activities, meals, and rest periods, all while maintaining a structured yet flexible environment that meets each child's unique needs. Communication with parents has always been a key part of my role, ensuring they are informed about their child's progress and any concerns. I have also been responsible for managing meal preparation, hygiene, and ensuring a clean and safe environment for the children in my care. Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in patience, adaptability, and problem-solving, which are essential in handling the varying needs and behaviors of children. My commitment to providing a nurturing and enriching environment for children has been the cornerstone of my child care experience.

My name is Jaden, and I bring a rich background in both social services and education, supported by my Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in English and Social Work. I grew up as the oldest of six, helping to care for my five younger sisters, which sparked my lifelong passion for working with children. This early experience naturally led me to start babysitting at a young age, and since then, I’ve built a diverse career fulfilling roles such as child support worker, mental health worker, disability support worker, guidance counsellor, substitute teacher, and educational assistant. In addition to my professional experience, I’m deeply connected to nature and love spending time outdoors. Creativity is a big part of who I am—I enjoy writing stories and crafting unique projects. At home, I share my space with my lovely partner, Kyle, and my rescue kitty named Jinx, who keeps life interesting! I believe in creating a nurturing and enriching environment for children to thrive, and I look forward to bringing my skills, creativity, and passion for caregiving to a family that values these attributes. I have a lifelong passion for working with children, nurtured by my experience growing up with five younger sisters, whom I helped care for from an early age. This hands-on experience naturally led me to begin babysitting at a young age, where I developed a deep understanding of the needs and behaviors of children. Professionally, I have built a diverse career in social services and education, where I have held various roles, each contributing to my well-rounded expertise in childcare. My contracted roles involve that of a Child Support Worker, Disability Support Worker, and Community Mental Health Worker. In these positions, I gained invaluable skills in providing compassionate care tailored to the unique needs of each child. In my roles as a High School Guidance Counsellor and K-12 Substitute Teacher, I have supported students academically, emotionally, and socially, ensuring they were able to thrive in a safe and nurturing environment. Additionally, as an Casual Educational Assistant (EA), I have worked closely with children with diverse learning needs, helping them achieve their full potential. My comprehensive background in both home-based and professional childcare (& youth) settings makes me uniquely qualified to provide exceptional care and support for your family. I am committed to creating a positive, enriching environment where children can grow, learn, and flourish.

I am Robyn located in NW - Nolan Hill and I have been working with children for over 10 years. I have left my career in the childcare field and I am venturing out into the tourism world. However, I still have a love for working with children and at times miss it a lot. So, I am looking for casual work, maybe when you have date nights or hockey games to attend and need the kids looked after. I am reliable and love working with children. I love to spend time with children and I feel they tend to gravitate towards me no matter where we are. I have a wonderful dog so I am open to doing pet care. I love to do crafts and baking. I love to do whatever makes the children happy. I also work from home so I have the potential to collect them from the bus depending on the time and location. I can also assist with summertime care if needed. I have worked with children in various aspects from schools to daycares to cruise ships. I feel my experience is well rounded and I am capable of handle many tasks. Early Learning and Child Care certificate
