Experience: 3 yrs
As a caregiver with three years of experience, I'm passionate about nurturing children's growth and development. My journey began with babysitting, where I discovered my knack for caring for children. Over the years, my desire to make a positive impact on young lives has only grown stronger. I believe that effective communication is key to building trust with parents. I keep them updated on their child's day, discussing any issues that arise, and tailoring my approach to their preferred communication style. When it comes to enforcing household rules, I maintain a firm yet understanding demeanor, ensuring a safe and structured environment for the children in my care. I bring a diverse range of games and activities to the table, from outdoor sports that encourage physical activity to educational games that foster learning. I also embrace technology-based games and apps to keep up with the times. I hold a college degree and have completed coursework in early child development.
We hired Chinelo to help with our twins’ bath and bedtime routine after daycare, as both my husband and I have demanding jobs that often require travel. The babies didn’t take to her right away, likely because she was only seeing them after long, stimulating days. We asked several times if she could spend a few hours with them during the day to help them get used to her. She repeatedly said she’d get back to us, but never followed through. In the meantime, we had her help with bottles, formula, and light cleaning. We also asked her to prep lunches for the next day, though that didn’t seem to be her strength. When she vacuumed, it wasn’t very thorough, and she wasn’t proactive in finding additional tasks to fill the full hour. She was responsive when I texted her about payment, but when I followed up again about spending more daytime with the kids, she didn’t reply. Eventually, she told us she didn’t have time—even on weekends for just an hour or two in the mornings. Overall, she wasn’t very engaged or interested in getting to know the children, which is very important to us in a caretaker. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend her.
