My name is Erin and I am twenty one years old and have just finished my third year as a student studying theatre in the Phoenix program at UVIC. I am a creative and hard-working individual who is passionate about acting, directing, and writing in theatre and film, with a love for and plenty of experience in childcare. My home is in Burnaby (on the mainland) where I grew up with my parents and two younger siblings, and I am currently living in the Oak Bay area. In September I will move back into residence where I work during the school year as a residence advisor. Over the past year I have also nannied a one-year-old on campus. I love engaging with kids in all sorts of activities, from arts and crafts and imaginative games to spending time at the park and going on other adventures, etc. I would be more than happy to cook/prepare snacks and meals for babies and children and to get cleaning and laundry, etc. done, as well as pet care. I started working as a mother's helper in my neighbourhood in Burnaby at eleven years old, and continued to babysit/nanny for families in my area throughout the rest of my time in high school, until I moved to Victoria to attend UVIC. I still babysit for a few of these families when I am visiting home. I have experience looking after babies and children ranging from infant age to twelve years old, and most of the babysitting/nannying I have done has been for families with two children, however I have also babysat for a family of three children under three. I have experience as a Sunday School teacher and as a counsellor at various day camps, and I work as an RA for students living in residence at UVIC during the school year. I am also the eldest child in my family with two younger siblings who I have cared for often growing up, one of which has special needs. I am very comfortable with cooking/preparing meals for babies and children, as well as doing cleaning/housework and pet care, etc. Current university student in third-year standing at UVIC

I was born and raised in Victoria and come from a family that values community. I live with my fiancé and pet bird, and I like to spend my time being active when I’m not working or taking care of the house. I have always been fond of children, and have enjoyed being a part of my nieces’ and nephews’ lives as the fun aunt that is ready to get involved in which ever activity/play time idea they come up with. I particularly enjoy cultivating a sense of curiosity and adventure. However, just like with adults, I think it’s important to listen and get to know children’s personalities and preferences/dislikes to learn how best to create a safe and happy environment for them to thrive in. I’m also a huge animal lover and I enjoy getting to have the company of any and all animals, and would love to take care of any pets you may have. I have had several nieces and nephews that I’ve babysat over the years. In addition, I’m also a teacher for a kids’ exercise class once a week. My approach to kids is to appreciate the spirit of each child as they are, and to learn about them to engage in activities they find interesting and to encourage that curiosity. I think outdoor play is important, weather permitting, and learning to play indoors with the imagination is also required. I also really enjoy spending time with animals, so if anyone has any pets I wouldn’t mind also caring for them, including taking dogs on walks (even better if we can get the kids out in a walk too!) I have a Masters in Science.

Master's Degree

I am dependable and have excellent organizational skills at work and at home. I am very prepared and thorough in all aspects of my work. I can be counted on to meet commitments and promises while having fun with your children. I look forward to making your day easier and lots of fun for your children. Casual sitter, when needed, part time hours. I bring a warm, grounded energy to the families I work with. I am comfortable with caring for both infants and toddlers, and love supporting littles ones through play, story time, and early learning activities. I have nannied throughout my life, I am 31 and currently am an Education Assistant for the last three years. Im happy to help with light cooking, snacks, toilet, delicate housework tasks. When I'm not nannying, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my 8-year-old dog. I value patience, consistency, and creating a safe, nurturing environment for kids to thrive in. Looking forward to connecting!
