1st Entry - Purpose of this Blog

I am not much of a blogger, but I do have a lot of people asking me for advise regarding children. I also really enjoy collecting educational and vintage toys. So this blog is going to be an advise (what has worked for me or people I know) area about children (newborn to 5 years old) and cool toys I have found.

Little about me as a Nanny

I love my career as a Nanny. Caring for young children gives me a joy in life that nothing else does. Watching them grow, develop, and become their own person is an amazing part of life. I see my role to be one of guiding, teaching, caring for, and keeping them safe through this process. I provide a warm, safe, loving, and structured environment, as well as educational play including books and toys that I can bring with me if necessary. I also do bathing, hygiene, feeding, potty training, and caring for sick children. I have experience with twins and special needs children. I also do child proofing, cleaning, cooking, laundry, and organization.

Because I work in families private homes I don't list anything about who I am working for, where I am currently working, or anything about the children I am watching. All of this information is kept confidential.
