A little bit about me
I truly enjoy being around children and creating a safe, loving, and positive space for them to grow. I bring patience, kindness, and a gentle but steady approach to every family I work with. Whether it’s helping with homework, encouraging creativity through play, or keeping routines on track, I focus on making sure children feel cared for and supported.
Because of my healthcare background, safety and attentiveness are second nature to me. At the same time, I know how important it is for kids to laugh, explore, and feel free to be themselves. Families can count on me to be reliable, nurturing, and someone who treats their little ones with the same care and respect I’d give my own.

A little bit about me
Hello,
I am a mother of an 22 month old. I temporarily have gaudianship of a 12 year old. I have tons of experiences with children of all ages. Occasionally I volunteer my time at daycare faculties. I enjoy watching children learn and grow into their personalities. I understand each child are their own person and believe in trying to listen and understand their needs and what they may feel that's important to them. I believe in letting children learn on their own timing and respecting their wishes as long as it does not harm themselves or others around them. I have 10 nieces and nephews in which I helped raised before helping in aiding in my 12 year old stepson and having my own 22 month old. You can feel very comfortable allowing me to be an aid to your family. I consider myself a child magnet and hope one day soon I will have my own daycare faculty to help neighboring families!

Hi my name is Sheila! I am graduating this month with a degree in Education and Psychology, and am currently searching for a nannying job. I have many years of experience working with children. I have 2 nieces who I’ve helped take care of since they were toddlers. They are now 8 and 10 years old. I’ve also had the opportunity to observe and gain hands on experiences in elementary schools through my college pre-practicums. I can help with things like transportation, homework, errands, crafts, planning activities, etc. Please feel free to reach out!
