A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Isabella, 23 years old, and I've been working with children for about 6 years. I've always loved kids and having the opportunity to help someone else while getting to teach and help develop the mind of a child. I love doing puzzles and listening to music, and bubbles are always amazing. I can cater to any age, as I get along with most children regardless of background, ethnicity, disability or age. I love animals, and will make sure they are taken care of too! I don't mind doing any cooking or light cleaning, or even going outside to play with the sprinkler or hose now that the summer is coming up!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Tijah I graduated from Salisbury high in 2025 and I went to college for the first semester. My major is elementary education. I’m still going to school just online now and with me being a babysitter/nanny it would look great on my resume. I used to babysit my cousin. She’s premature and she had a ostomy bag and my auntie always counted on me to watch her. I was the best babysitter of all time not to toot my own horn. My baby cousin loved me and I also am the oldest of nine siblings! Trust and believe your babies will be in good hands
