What do you enjoy most about watching children? I enjoy watching children grow. I love seeing all of the developmental milestones. I love when a baby is crawing and you hear the pitter patter of their hands against the floor. I love when you can finally understand what they are saying to you and you begin having conversations. I love when they blossom into their own. I consider it an honor and a priviledge to work with children. I respect them where they are in their development and enjoy them for who they are.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? My calling is to continue teach and continue to work with children and families. I will finish my Masters Degree in Curriculum & Instruction. I hope to have two children of my own and have the welcomed experience of being a parent.
What are your hobbies? I enjoy traveling, reading, singing and riding my bike.

My son loves to play with Debra and always gives her a BIG hug when she arrives. I also like that she's had tons of experience with children, so I can ask her just about any question. (and I still have a lot as a first- time Mom!)

What do you enjoy most about watching children? I enjoy watching the reactions older children show, when you have just figured out their favorite game and start playing it with them...(Harry Potter LEGO on WII).
I like showing support for their projects, whether a little one is building a pebble pile or an older kid is being super polite and they want you to know about it. I am aware that some children are intimate and others are very outgoing, and I like to support the decisions they make and help them feel like their decision is worthwhile by sharing my own stories.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? In about five years, definitely before I'm 30 for this goal, I will be traversing a continent. My next goal is to travel to Chile and visit some family we know there. I will probably not take the easy flight there.. and I will definitely see Machu Picchu on my way down.
What are your hobbies? My hobbies include cycling, geography, and playing music. I love to read and write and share stories. I like to cook and try many different foods. I am learning computer programming and Spanish.

Hilary B.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? I enjoy TONS of things about watching children - I love watching kids play together, using their imaginations, building things, creating their own little world. Watching kids also gives me a good opportunity to learn how they interact with each other - where they are developmentally, how great their communication skills are (I am almost always blown away by this!), and allowing kids to learn to work out differences themselves. And let's not forget my favorite - laughter! Kids are the best at getting folks to laugh!
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I will, of course, be with Nannies From the Heart 5 years from now. I love Austin and plan to stay here for years to come. I think central Texas is a wonderful place to raise families and I feel grateful that I am able to spend time with the families I have met so far.
What are your hobbies? I enjoy jogging and walking my dog. I also enjoy taking dance classes at some of the local dance studios - Dance Austin Studio and Galaxy Dance Studio. I enjoy reading and I am in a women's book club with several friends who are also runners. Just for fun, I like watching the Wiener Dog Races every year in Buda.

Katherine P.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? Mostly laughing. I laugh all the time with kids now the same way I did with my daughter and her friends when they were all growing up. I love reading stories to them, being outside, playing with fun toys, playing dress ups and going into make-believe story worlds. I love going outside with children to their yard or to parks where we can explore things along the way; that's when I find it easiest to teach them about what is around us, i.e. I have several children who like pretty rocks and we identify them together.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? For the first time in my life, I can actually say I see myself doing exactly the same thing I am doing now. I will still be caring for children, some in the same families and some brand new.
What are your hobbies? My hobbies, when I am able to get back to them, are black and white photography using a manual camera. I love to take long walks and explore neighborhoods. I have a particular interest in houses and their history. I also often walk around the UT campus since I live so close. I go to art shows and live performances at the Ballet and Opera. I swim alot in the summer, bike ride when I can and do pilates on my own equipment. I have 4 kittie cats and a number of plants that I take cuttings from and give to friends. I read both current events and novels and am a movie watcher. I also still sew by hand when I can, often just mending at this point. I used to cook alot as well.

What do you enjoy most about watching children? My strong point is with newborns to toddlers, I just love that warm feeling they give you when they look up to you for love and comfort. Teaching a pre-K class is a lot of fun too, they look up to you for direction and creactivity, I like to get down and messy when learning something new, being silly with them and hearing them laugh is a plus but firm on the rules at the same time. Their sense of wonder makes me happy.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Hopefully I will finally be a Nana! But for now I am happy to be a nanny! Seriously, I would love to travel a little bit and keep working with Nannies from the Heart, children keep me young in heart and happy in spirit.
What are your hobbies? Reading, arts and crafts, music spending time with my daughters, I love long drives to no where, my girls call it "lets go get lost " thank goodness for GPS

What do you enjoy most about watching children? I enjoy watching and spending time around children because they are able to find so much joy in the simplest things. They are always honest (sometimes to a fault!) and I love knowing that I am not only teaching them things, but learning from them as well.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I hope to be either in school or have graduated with a Master's in Social Work and pursuing my career working with children. I plan to stay in the Austin area and hopefully will own a home where my family can grow.
What are your hobbies? I am a mother to a two and a half year old, a full time student and working full time so my "free" time is spent with my son taking him to the park or zoo or different activities that he enjoys. He attends a full time Montessori preschool so our time during the week is very limited. I also enjoy reading and spending time with my family and friends.

What do you enjoy most about watching children? Overall I love getting to know new children. Their personalities are all so unique that you never know what they might say or do next. Getting to spend time with children is always fun and there is never a dull moment! The excitement and wonder they bring with them to whatever situation, and their ability to make just about anything interesting, is probably what I like most about watching children.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Five years from now I will still be a career nanny, working with children and families and using my degree to help everyone achieve the platform to grow and develop into successful adults to the best of my abilities.
What are your hobbies? I love to read and play with my dog more than anything else. I live with my sister and her best friend of many years, and I also enjoy hanging out with them and their dog. Work and babysitting take up most of the rest of my time, but that isn't a problem because I love what I do!

What do you enjoy most about watching children? I absolutely love children's natural desire to be part of what the people around them are doing. They want to be given the opportunity to prove that they can do anything. I love the enthusiasm that children approach life with!

Maya D.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? I love to watch children learn and grown. It is amazing to see a child master how to tie their shoes after struggling with it for weeks, or to see a child become more confident and proficient in a sport that they love, or to hear them pronounce a complicated word that they never used to be able to say correctly. I also love to watch children because they are so curious and easily delighted, it is difficult to not be as delighted and filled with wonder when you are with them.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I am currently saving up so that in the next five years I can get my CDA credential as well as certifications to teach group fitness and yoga. By 2016 I hope to be teaching aerobics, dance, and yoga classes for children.

Celeste T.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? I love finding out what each child loves to do, be it helping another sibling figure out a puzzle, or sitting in a corner playing with stuffed animals. I like to relate my experience teaching and watching students learn in school to seeing how kids choose to explore and grow in a non-academic setting.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Though I would love to find that special person to commit to sooner rather than later, I am preparing to focus on applying to a graduate program in the sciences. The preparation itself will be a process, and in five years I will hopefully be in the midst of attaining my higher degree.
What are your hobbies? A typical week involves me playing with my dog, and getting a work-out in at least three of the days. I enjoy studying languages- fluent in Spanish, I go to Portuguese Language Meet-ups to practice and to meet new people. When my budget allows for it, I love traveling, whether to major U.S. cities or parts of Europe or Latin America. I try to take advantage of Austin's great library system and read memoirs and travel novels.

Stephine S.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? I love being able to share in the joyful little moments of a child's life that may seem on the outside to be insignificant to some, but to me, are all an important part of their growing process. As a nanny, I love helping them tie their shoes for the first time, or being with them when then they realize a caterpillar turns into a butterfly. Even if I only spend one day with them as a sitter, it seems like there is always some special moment that arises that reminds me of how grateful I am to be working with children for a living.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Hopefully, I will be a Special Education teacher somewhere in the Austin area and will have finally found the time and money to get married and possibly have started on making a family.
What are your hobbies? I love music and being outdoors. I have four rescue dogs, who are basically my children. I spend most of my free time taking them hiking, running, and to dog parks. I love to camp, travel around Texas and read in my hammock. I make it a point to always be learning something new. This spring, I hope to start an herb garden and plan a backpacking trip to Big Bend for the fall.

What do you enjoy most about watching children? I personally enjoy the opportunity to learn new things from children like how to appreciate the fun-loving and joyful parts of life or how to be more creative in my ways of thinking and perspectives. I think working with children is one of the most rewarding fields because you can constantly be learning new things and getting the opportunity to teach them in return.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? In five years I see myself graduated from graduate school with a Master's degree in International Studies with a concentration in Global Women's Health Care. I aspire to work internationally with non-profit organizations in which I can provide health care and medical resources in rural areas. I would also like to have experience working in Washington, DC with health care policy reform and human rights. However, on a more personal level, I would also love to be in a committed serious relationship with someone who shares my values.
What are your hobbies? I love to cook and bake. Some of my favorite recipes are creamy pesto chicken with pasta, roasted sweet potatoes, and zucchini muffins! My mom and grandmother taught me how to bake when I was a little girl and I have loved it ever since. I also really enjoy jewelry making and reading. I love to go to parks or coffee shops and read. I also like swimming and outdoor activities like hiking and camping. My family owns a cabin in Ruidoso, New Mexico so during the winter we usually go up there to hike and ski.

Working with children warms my soul and keeps me grounded.

What do you enjoy most about watching children? I love working and being around children because of their innocence and creativity. I always learn more from a child than they learn from me. How does that happen?! I also love the feeling that I am able impact a child's life. Being a nanny has helped me realize how much fun it will be to have my own family and children someday.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I have recently started to think about going to graduate school for Behavioral Neuroscience. If I decide to go, then in five years I might be back in school!

Oh, and getting married and having my own kiddos some day is important also!
What are your hobbies? I just graduated from The University of Texas, so my life has mainly consisted of studying. Since that's no longer an obligation, I will have free time! I have rescued two dogs, Bentley and Harper, who take up a lot of my time. I love running and riding bikes with both of my dogs. I also love practicing yoga.

What do you enjoy most about watching children? Children lighten my heart and always a joy to be around just by being themselves. I enjoy the responsibilites of caring for young ones because there simply is not a greater calling. I also feel that teaching all children is what I am best suited for, given my imagination and creativity. I love tbe wonder of discovery of any age child be it finding a frog in the backyard or figuring out that squeezing their squeaky toy makes a funny sound!

What do you enjoy most about watching children? I like the one-on-one connection you get with the child(ren) and that bond that you form that is just unattainable in a classroom environment. There is no "fooling" a child into loving you. Children are innocent and new to the world, so they take everything about you at face value and the relationship that you form with them is one built on trust, love, and their direct interaction with you. I love working with children because you know if you have gained a child's trust and love, it is because you were a good person to them.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? In 5 years I see myself with my wonderful husband in Austin, Texas still living a beautiful life. I see myself having traveled the world more, taken a few more cooking classes, learned a mountain of new things, laughed at numerous jokes, cried a few more tears, and finally taught myself how to knit. I also hope to be working a job that makes me feel fulfilled, respected, challenged, and happy.
What are your hobbies? First of all I love to spend time with my husband and friends. My favorite thing in the world to do is just sit around and talk with the people I love and laugh until no sound comes out. Another favorite past time of mine is traveling. Whether it is across the state or across the world, I enjoy learning about other cultures and seeing how beautiful and different the rest of the world is. Ever since I was little my mother has called me her little mermaid because I love to be in the water in any way, shape, or form. I have taught swimming but I also like tubing down the Guadalupe river, snorkeling, sailing, and even just laying by the pool and reading. Cooking is another passion of mine. I have been cooking since I was tall enough to reach the kitchen counter and my mother was my greatest motivation for that.I even taught my husband to cook when we first started dating so it has since become one of our favorite past times. Finally, no matter what kind of mood I am in or how busy my day has been I can always find time to read. I read all sorts of books, my favorite being fantasy fiction. I just love how reading takes you to another place.

Natana G.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? It is one thing to study human development with its different stages, and quite another to meet a child, who almost never fits the expectation, constantly teaching me something new. It is their wide eyed way of seeing the world and experiencing new things that remind me to try to keep an open mind and a fresh perspective.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I hope to still be working with children and their families. I plan on completing a Master's in education and working full-time, teaching in either a private setting as a governess or in a public setting.
What are your hobbies? reading children's books, crocheting, running, swimming, movies, kayaking, dancing, watching classic movies with my family

Meghann M.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? I love learning with them, children have taught me so much. I have learned to be more patient, calm, and level headed in stressful situations. I enjoy teaching them the meaning and names of objects and people, and then sit back and watch it "click" when they figure it out. Children are innocent, honest, and true. I love teaching "my children" Sign Language which really helps us to communicate! Children are just amazing and love with out holding back. I cant wait to have a family of my own!
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I hope to have finished my Child Development degree and receive my teachers certificate, my Psychology degree, and hopefully be almost finished with my Business Administration degree. This is all to prepare me to have my own business of either opening a family child care or foster home. We will be married and hopefully looking to start a family of our own. I want to be confident in my education and already be looking in to ways to finance my dream. Until my dream comes true, be at a job I love and will give me the experience I need.
What are your hobbies? I love to play tennis, read both fictional and educational books. I enjoy taking walks, talking to friends, yoga, arts and crafts, and playing board games with friends and family to name a few. I enjoy babysitting for my friends kids, taking long rides, going to concerts, visiting different places, hand gliding, skydiving, parsailiing. I soon hope to bungee jump, go rock climbing, and tour all of Europe. The way I look at it, life is too short to not do the things you want to do in life. If you see it on TV or hear it from a friend and think its cool and want to do it. Than my logic is JUST DO IT! I spent most of my life hiding from the things i was interested in, and it lead to a sad life. Now I am full of energy, excited about life, and happier than I have ever been and energetic to tell my story.

Jolene A.
What do you enjoy most about watching children? I love to see children work out their own concerns or problems at that moment. The look of gratification that appears on their face when they figured out a puzzle or life learning situation, brings a big smile to my face. This shows me that they are ready and capable to handle their own struggles.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? In 5 years I am determined to have my degree and my career. I hope that at 30-31 years old I have a strong foundation so that I too can start my own family and enjoy life without exams.
What are your hobbies? I am a very athletic young woman and the sky is the limit to what activities I can do. I am a Texas girl, so for me the hot weather doesn't get me down. I go bike riding, swim in the springs, play different sports (if my schedule permits), love catching some live music shows and whatever else is out that catches my attention. Family is very important to me so I make sure to enjoy a lot of family gatherings as well.
