A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Heidi! I am 18 years old and I have four years of hands-on childcare experience working with children of all ages. I am CPR and BLS certified, have my own reliable car and a valid driver’s license. I always prioritize safety while keeping children engaged in fun, as well as age appropriate activities. Families would describe me as kind, empathetic, and compassionate, and I love creating a warm, supportive environment where children feel comfortable, safe, and always cared for. Whether it’s helping with routines, homework, creative play, or getting out for adventures, I bring a positive attitude and strong sense of responsibility to every family I work with. I’m passionate about building trusting relationships with both parents and children and becoming a dependable, uplifting part of your daily life.

A little bit about me

Hii! I'm Freyja, a Minnesota nanny with a certificate in PCA/CFSS so even outside of nannying I have history with caretaking! I am 19, I currently cannot legally drive so I use busses but I always arrive where I need to be atleast 30 minutes before I'm said to start.

I have almost full availability! I currently have a VERY, VERY part time job Fridays and Saturdays(a few hours in night shift) as a live-in caregiver, so I really am super available.

About my appearance, the photo I am using has pink hair my I regularly change my hair colors(I've done all colors now!), currently it's black.

I love being a nanny! Even when I was "unofficial", I was an older kid taking care of younger kids at family events and church! I made sure they were safe, ate and weren't bored.

I am not certified in anything but PCA/CFSS, but during my training I believe CPR/Aid was lightly touched on.

If you think I'd be the right Nanny for you, go ahead and message me or email me at [email hidden]!
