Nasya K. - Seeking Work in Swansea

Nanny Nasya

Swansea, IL
$16/hr
Full-time
< 1 year experience

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Nasya! Becoming a big sister is what first sparked my passion for caring for children, and that love has only grown ever since. I’ve had the joy of helping kids in many ways—whether through volunteering in a special education classroom, guiding children in a mentorship program, or simply making everyday moments fun and meaningful. I love encouraging little ones as they learn new things, reach milestones, and express their creativity. If desired, I’m also happy to include Bible study or faith-based learning, as I believe nurturing both heart and spirit is just as important as learning and play. I decided to take a semester off from my forensic science studies to focus on helping parents in need and providing children with a safe, patient, and loving environment.
