I am currently pursing my undergraduate studies in Nursing at Dalhousie University. I was born here in Halifax but grew up in New Brunswick for the majority of my childhood. I did competitive figure skating for almost 10 years of my life followed by teaching younger children how to skate since I was 8 years old. People tend to describe me as a creative personality. I love all sorts of crafts ranging from painting to crotchet. In addition to my academic pursuits and my love for arts and crafts, I value being physically active, whether that is going to the gym by myself or getting outdoors with my friends. - 10+ years of coaching figure skating through the Learn to Skate CanSkate Program - Babysat over the years BScN in progress

My name is Maya I am a Dalhousie MA student, big sister, and animal lover. For the past two years I took a gap year between my undergraduate degree which I completed at Dal and my goal to continue further studies. During this break I worked as a nanny for a 4 year old and a 9 year old. I will miss working as a their nanny so much but am excited for this new chapter as well. Although I will be in school I am still looking for a part time job to match my academic commitments. I have experience working with children from a variety of age groups - from little ones aged 1-2 years, to older children over 10 years. As the eldest of five siblings, I have a natural understanding of childcare, evident in both my professional and personal life. In addition to my enthusiasm and warm nature, I have been trained in First Aid and CPR. I have also completed my High Five (principles of healthy childhood development training). This training, coupled with my educational background that includes a Bachelor's Degree with Honours in History and a minor in English and a forthcoming Master's Degree, supports me to provide a safe and stimulating environment for your children. I am also more than capable of performing several household duties such as cooking, laundry, organizing, and even pet care. My versatility extends to my ability to adapt to different dietary rules and handle multiple children at once the most of which has been 10 at once as a camp councillor. I am also equipped with the important skill of working with children with disabilities. I have learned to do this through the care of children I have worked with at camp who had disabilities and also through the care of my siblings one of which is on the spectrum and one who has ADHD. My availability spans throughout the day for most of the week - Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday for mornings, afternoons and evenings; with Wednesday and Friday for mornings and evenings. Given that I am a non-smoker, comfortable with commuting, and a proud pet owner of a lovely cat named Nala, you can be assured that I will care for your children and your home as if they were my own. I look forward to sitting down with you to discuss how my skills and experience make me a good match for your family. Note: I am willing to undergo a police check if required for your peace of mind. - Full-time nanny to a four year old boy and a nine year old girl for two years 2023-2025 - Occasional babysitter from 2013 to present - Camp councillor/ head rock climbing coach at Jack of Sports - Camp councillor/ Dining hall staff Camp Hurontario - CIT at YMCA Camp Kitchikewana High Five- Principles in Healthy Childhood Development training

My name is Bronwyn, a 40-year-old single woman with no children. As a result, I have plenty of time and energy to devote to the children I care for. Among my nieces and nephews, I am known as the "cool, fun, silly" aunt. I currently work at a local school doing yard duty, where I have formed connections with many of the students. I have experience with children ranging from newborns to 13 years old and possess an extensive education and strong background in childcare. In addition to my professional experience, I enjoy hiking, traveling, cooking, reading, beading, and playing the piano. I have a genuine love for children and believe I would be the ideal candidate to care for yours. I am willing to go above and beyond for your family, just as I do for my own. I have an extensive background in childcare starting from the age of 11 when my mother ran a daycare out of our home. As I grew up I began to babysit for those families. I've done babysitting for several families over the years where I was responsible for picking the children up after school, making healthy snack and dinner, help with homework, activities indoor and outdoor, keep kitchen tidy, and bedtime if parents had to work late. I currently have 4 nieces and 3 nephews and with no kids myself I love being involved in their lives as much as I can- which is alot! I have a degree in Anthropology and History from the University of Victoria. During this time I worked for BC Ferries proving that in an emergency I act without hesitation. I moved to Toronto where I earned my diploma in Early Childhood Education from Seneca College realizing that working with children was my passion. I hold a Level 3 ECE title in Nova Scotia. I have worked in private schools and public schools in Toronto and appreciate what those setting have to offer. I am currently a lunch monitor at a local junior high.
