A little bit about me

Hi there! I’m Jordyn, a junior at Michigan State University and a Certified Nursing Assistant who truly loves caring for kids. I’ve spent the past two years as a camp counselor working with kindergarten through 4th grade, but my experience started long before that. As the oldest of three siblings, I’ve been helping care for little ones my whole life, my youngest brother is 4, so I like to say I have 19 years of “big sister” experience, especially with toddlers. I adore kids who keep me on my toes and fill the day with laughter and curiosity. I’m always excited to learn alongside them, create fun activities, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and heard. Caring for children isn’t just a job for me, it’s something that brings me genuine joy every single day.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ash and I’m a recent grad from MSU. I’m taking a pause before continuing my studies in grad school and am looking for a meaningful and fun way to spend that time. I discovered my love for childcare through babysitting for younger members of my large extended family and now have four summers of camp counselor experience under my belt.

I enjoy spending lots of time outside, any kinds of arts and crafts, reading, and playing Nintendo games. I love animals, so pets are no problem, and have a dog and cat of my own.

I’d love to get to know you and your family! I’m very easy-going and my schedule is very flexible. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
I’m very flexible with scheduling and responsibility. I look forward to meeting you and your family. :)

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ava, I'm 21 years old, and I've been babysitting for 10 years, and nannying for 4 of those years. I'm a student at Michigan State studying psychology, however, I'm currently taking the semester off so I have more availability from now until December. I was a water sports instructor for 3 years at Pine Lake Marina, therefore, I'm trained in both CPR and First Aid. I also volunteered at Eastminster Child Development Center last year, with that being said, I have experience with all different types of kids. I'm really interested in finding a part-time nannying job in this area. I'm very flexible with dates and times.
