Hi I am Mary Marichelle. You can call me Marichelle. I am 32 years old and married for 6 years. I am aFilipino. I have a 10 month old daughter and she was born Feb. 5, 2014. Currently I am on my maternity leave for a year and will finish this end of December 2014. I am planning to go back to work by January or February 2015.
As for my experience as a nanny, year 2007 I came here to Canada from Singapore to work as a live in caregiver to a twin girls age 2 1/2. I worked for my first employer as lived-in nanny for 5 years and taking care of a 2 1/2 twin girls. My duties are preparing them to go to school like give them a bath, dressed them, prepare their breakfast and walk them to school and pick them up. I took them also to their after school programs and do fun things with like going to the library (always if no after school programs). We Have activities like going food shopping, go for long walks in the park, do arts and crafts, play with game boards, do some baking, and instill them the importance of having a good attitude in everything they do and being responsible person for their own actions. I also do housekeeping, grocery shopping( sometimes if needed) and do some errands that my employer assigned to me.
I end my contract for my first employer last Sept. 28, 2012 wherein she still needs live in nanny while I start to work as a live out.
By Oct. 1, 2012 I worked for another family where I took care of their twin children a boy and a girl ages 2 years old. My main duties are in the morning I feed them their breakfast and prepare as well. Ready them for school, gave them their lunch when they come home and put them for their naps. After naps I take them To the park or library or we have play dates. If the weather is bad we stayed home and we do arts and crafts, play anything they want to as long as they have fun and they can learn from it. We do baking. I let them help light housework if they insist ( they love it sometimes and feel proud about it). I make sure we create a nice and a learning environment everyday. I can cook simple food and can follow recipes and I prepared their 3 meals in a day. I take them to after school programs too. It was fun.
I ended my contract with this family last January 2014 as I am preparing myself to give birth on February. So thats it and whoever the next family I am going to work with, I am very much happy and excited to be part of your FAMILY. I am not perfect but I give my best in everything I do.
Thank you and all the best.
