A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Annabella, and I’m an 18-year-old full-time college student with a strong passion for working with children. I have years of hands-on experience caring for my five siblings, including younger siblings under 10 and siblings with autism. Growing up in a big family has made me incredibly patient, adaptable, and responsible.
I’m First Aid certified and comfortable caring for children ages 3–12+. I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and structured environment where kids feel supported and heard. I’m happy to help with homework, prepare meals, assist with light house cleaning and pick-ups, provide pet care, and handle school pick-ups or driving when needed.
I’m dependable, friendly, and ambitious, and I truly take pride in being someone families can trust. I’m typically available anytime after 3 PM depending on my college schedule, and I’m always available on weekends. I would love the opportunity to support your family!

I’m an intelligent, & determined young woman who’s just aspiring to have the financial stability while furthering my education & being the shoulder to lean on & help out with the little ones <3.

I’m very adaptable and flexible, I’ve worked with various age groups and experienced a lot when working in the industry so trust when i say your kids will grow to love having me around if you choose me as your nanny :) !
