A little bit about me
Hello! I am a freshman volleyball player at Kalamazoo College, and I'm currently considering studying business. I grew up babysitting my niece, nephew, and baby sister which began my love for working with kids. In addition I ran my high schools volleyball kids camp for 3 years. Through one of my current college courses we started volunteering at and tutoring kids at El Concilio which made me consider babysitting during my off season. I have acquired many skills from my sport including time management, organization, attentiveness, and lots of patience. And most importantly I am looking forward to meeting and connecting with you and your families!!

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Ashton, and I’m a nurturing, creative nanny with a strong passion for early childhood development. I truly enjoy spending time with children and love engaging them through hands-on activities like arts and crafts, nature walks, and imaginative play. I’m especially inspired by the Montessori approach, which encourages independence, curiosity, and respect for a child’s natural development. I always strive to create a calm, supportive environment where children can explore at their own pace and feel safe, seen, and encouraged. I'm excited to bring my energy, creativity, and care to a family that values connection, learning, and joyful everyday moments.
