A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Avery and I enjoy reading, trying new recipes, and staying active. I'm a mom to my 16th month old son, Phoenix, who is the joy of my life. Before having my son, I've had 5+ years of child care experience as a private nanny and babysitter for several families in my area.

What I value most is helping children reach their full potential and making a positive impact on their lives. I'm excited to learn more about your childcare needs and how I can support your family.

A little bit about me

My name is Sofia, I’m about to turn 15, I’ve babysat for many relatives different ages from 6 months-10 years. I go to Caddo Magnet Highschool, and am part of the volleyball team there and am also going to be part of the volleyball team at TC elite. I have a pretty free schedule since I am currently off season for the next few months. I am totally happy to babysit after school and on weekends.

While I do not currently have my CPR/first aid certifications, I am getting them this summer, but have taken a few lessons about both subjects in school. I will also be getting my drivers permit in the next few months, but I do have a reliable source of transportation to get to different jobs. Thank you!

A little bit about me

This is a nanny lane but really I intend to have experience with taking care and caring for kids. I’m not able to drive yet but if staying home and watching over your children all day would be fine to me. I have 4 siblings, and being the second oldest gave me a lot of duties. I don’t seek to ask much only for a flexible schedule that can sit my schedule as a high schooler.

A little bit about me

would absolutely love to make life just a bit easier for you! My goal is to take care of your babies like they were mine and give you that peace of mind that they are safe and taken care of, which I know can be hard to find nowadays!

With multiple years of experience, I have the skills and knowledge to help children thrive. I do have my medical assistant certification and have taken quite a few nursing courses (was in nursing school) along with an entire family of RN's and Paramedics. Lol! I have my CPR certification but I do have to get it renewed.

Communication is key, and I make sure to keep parents informed about their child's day and any important matters. You tell me how you'd like updates, whether that's when you get home, frequent text, or a letter on the bar and I will happily do that!

I look forward to working with your family!
