Experience: 8 yrs
I am a childcare provider with over 10 years of experience, caring for children aged 1-11. My passion for fostering children's growth and development, coupled with positive experiences in previous babysitting roles, led me to pursue a career in childcare. I also have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, during which I completed coursework in early child development and mental health. In the last year, I worked as a nanny five days a week, where I cared for a 2-year-old boy and cooked lunch for the family. During that time, I also worked as a teacher's aide at a preschool with kids aged 2-6 years. I am friendly, patient, and energetic! I believe communication with parents about their children is extremely important, whether that be verbally or updates via text or phone call. When it comes to household rules, I believe in following the parents' lead to ensure consistency for the children. I enjoy playing outdoors, board games and puzzles, and educational games that promote learning.
Thandiwe was absolutely lovely with my son. She is very responsive, attentive, and caring. She asked questions, such as when/what he would like to eat, nap, what he likes to play with. I had no concerns or worries leaving my son with her. My son really enjoyed her as well. Highly recommended!
