A little bit about me

I'm a loving person who would be more than willing to ensure that your kids are safe, happy and healthy while they’re in my care. I previously volunteered for JA where i taught third graders simple economics. After that, i realized how much i loved working with children. I am a middle child with a little sister 9 years my junior so i have been around children and did a lot of babysitting. I think a bonus is that i am from Zimbabwe and what i learnt from JA is that kids love being exposed to someone from across the world.

Hi!! My name is Lilly! I’m a graduate from Blackhawk Christian School and a student at Ball State University studying Elementary Education!

A little bit about me

Hi I’m Taylor! I’ve been a preschool teacher for a year now and have a passion for helping children grow into their best selves! I branching out from cooperate teaching to nannying because I believe children thrive when given the proper attention and can have all their personal needs met. I love to adventure outdoors and don’t mind a mess whether it’s outside playing or inside doing arts and crafts! I have my own teaching material and lesson plans I’d be more than happy to share! I believe learning is fun especially when it’s done the right way!
