I can provide many stimulating activities for your child including, but not limited to:

Reading: I am an avid reader and encourage all children to read at least one book or chapter a day, if not more.
Language skills: I make an effort to speak proper English and expect learning children to do the same. Aside from assisting with homework and basic grammar abilities, I encourage multilinguality and use foreign languages as frequently as possible as it is stimulating for a child's language learning years.
Crafting: I am a freelance artist, and therefore, always have a painting or project on the go. I try to provide a creative activity for every day.
Exercise: I am a firm believer in keeping fit and encourage at least an hour of physical activity every day. Though I don't know many facts about sports, I know how to play the major ones and will find a healthy workout even in the worst of weather.
Games: I am so passionate about games. Playing together helps build family strength and familiarity and playing games on a regular basis is both stimulating for the heart and mind.
Liberal Arts: I'm a former drama club president and love to encourage children in acting and singing.
I am also a very home-oriented person and love to help out with chores, errands, and cooking.

Reviews from former employers:
Sarah N. says:
Brigitte has been wonderful to work with. She is patient, conscientious, and reliable. She has cared well for our young son, giving him lots of attention. I particularly appreciate her willingness to read to him and to carry him around to comfort him if he becomes fussy. I strongly recommend Brigitte to anyone looking for childcare for their children.
Gretchen B. says:
I have known Brigitte in the capacity as caregiver for over 5 years. We originally started as Nannies together, and when I had my child, Brigitte was an obvious choice. In addition to having a large family that allowed her to grow up surrounded by children, she has experience working with mentally and physically handicapped persons. Her patience and respect for those individuals make her an even stronger candidate for children that do not need the additional, specific, care. In addition to children's overall care, Brigitte brings a sense of creativity to the everyday life by teaching new crafts and activities to the kids to help enhance their at home learning.
Brigitte had my child starting at 6 weeks of age and acted as both regular babysitter and a live-in nanny. The only reason she is no longer with us is that my husband went back to school full-time so he remains home.
