Manny the Manny



I am a male nanny ("manny") with 11+ years of experience in taking care of children, as well as training parents and other caregivers. I enjoy everything about children, especially when they share their chocolate milk with me. Most importantly, I'm here to help. Ask me a question or send me an email.

I appeared in a segment about mannies on NBC's Today Show on July 23, 2012.

Who I Follow

Behavior 101 is an ongoing series about the principles underlying human behavior, and how to apply those to changing problem behavior in children, teaching children skills and maintaining positive behaviors. This installment: the principle of contingency.

Because of the nature of the principle of contingency, and my relative competency to explain things in the written versus spoken word, I strayed from convention this week with Behavior 101. Instead of my usual blog post, this week, you get my very first vlog!

Check it out below and be sure to subscribe to my new YouTube channel for future vlog posts.

Next week, Behavior 101 will cover the principle of size.

Oh, and if anyone fell in love with Blue, send me an email. We have too many kitties over here.
