Hi there, my name is Annalie! I’m currently a junior at UNC-Chapel Hill. I work part time as a CNA at UNC Hospital and a senior caregiver. I’ve had multiple experiences in childcare including 2 years of being a full time nanny and a summer camp counselor. My role as a nanny includes pickup/drop off, managing routines, and planning activities for 2 kids, ages 2 and 4. As a camp counselor, I planned and led activities for children ages from 4 to 8 years old. I coordinated activities for children on the autism spectrum to support their needs while fostering a positive and inclusive environment. I also provide care for seniors. I help with daily activities, memory care, and providing companionship.

I have significant experience in both child and senior care, which has allowed me to develop a diverse skill set and a compassionate approach to caregiving. With children (infant, toddler), l've worked on providing daily support, from ensuring their physical well-being to fostering their emotional growth. This includes assisting with schoolwork, coordinating recreational activities, and managing basic needs such as nutrition and hygiene. When it comes to senior care, I've gained hands-on experience helping older adults with activities of daily living (ADLs) like bathing, dressing, and meal preparation. I've also assisted with managing medications, providing companionship, and offering emotional support. My approach is always patient, understanding, and tailored to the specific needs of the individual, whether it's a child or senior. Through these experiences, l've learned the importance of empathy, clear communication, and adaptability, making me highly effective in caregiving roles.
