A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Lauryn , and I am currently a rising sophomore in college. I am experienced with working with children 2 to 5 years old in a childcare setting as a lead teacher, and I am currently working to get my CDA with working with infants and toddlers. I have been certified to work with 2 to 5-year-olds since May 2023, and have worked in several childcares with different age groups.

All the technicalities out of the way, welcome to my profile! Since I was young, I've always had an interest in working with children- always pretending to be a teacher and babying all of my younger siblings and cousins. Now, I am in college, pursuing a degree in elementary education! I am available to being a nanny for any age groups. I hope we can talk more and see if I am the right fit for your family!

A little bit about me

Hey, I’m Amiyah and I’m 19 years old. I’m currently looking for a new babysitting job. I’ve been babysitting since 2018 and have cared for children from two different families. I also work at New Life Church in the Kids Ministry, specifically in the nursery and preschool rooms, where I help care for young children and support their early development.

With years of experience, I offer a nurturing and engaging environment for children. I lead fun, age-appropriate activities that inspire learning and creativity—from storytelling to crafts to hands-on games. I tailor my time to the child’s interests and needs, helping them grow in confidence and curiosity while giving parents peace of mind.

I love being around kids and watching them grow into bright stars. I have experience with ages 0–10, can assist with all school subjects, and help children express and understand emotions. If you’re looking for a caring and responsible babysitter or nanny, feel free to reach out!
