Hello! My name is Sharai and I am a kid-loving care giver, artist and educator! I have experience working with infants to teenagers, and have continued my passion of caring for kids and fostering their growth and knowledge both in an outside the classroom. With kids I love being active, doing art and imaginative play, and outside of work I love to ride my bike, read and bake.

As a nanny with over 5-10+ years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with several amazing families. One memorable experience was with the Jones family, where I cared for their two children, aged 10 months and 6, for five years. My responsibilities included creating engaging activities, preparing nutritious meals, and ensuring their safety and well-being. I developed a strong bond with the children and became an integral part of their daily routine. I also assisted with homework, transportation to extracurricular activities, and organized playdates. I maintained open communication with the parents, providing regular updates on the children's progress and addressing any concerns promptly. Additionally, I utilized my creativity to plan educational and fun outings, fostering their curiosity and love for learning. My time with the Jones family was incredibly rewarding, as I witnessed the children grow and thrive under my care.

I’ve worked as a pre-k teacher for the past 4 1/2 years, frequently babysit and used to have 2 nannying jobs. I’m pretty decent with special needs kids and have worked with them before. I have been CORI checked, have no criminal background and am CPR, First aid and teacher certified. I’m playful and creative with children and encourage learning, boundaries, playing pretend, creativeness, and just fun all around! I am experienced, ambitious, organized, a good listener, / great rule/boundary follower, and kind, respectful, accommodating, outgoing and energetic. I’ve mainly only watched children but have also watched pets before. I have no experience watching seniors but am willing to learn and do it. I’ve also never house-sat but am again, willing to and am very responsible and great at cleaning and taking care of things and keeping it in check. I have a background with psychology and social work from college so I’m very good at reading children’s heads and understanding their personalities. I am also very protective of them because of my schooling in social work so I know how to watch and take care of them. I am currently going to college for nursing and am doing multiple interviews for more teaching positions at other schools because I recently got laid off because there was too many staff members.

I’m a caring and reliable caregiver with experience as a daycare assistant teacher working with children up to age 5.
