A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Liz and I am a full time college student. I am the oldest of 6 kids, so growing up I was the one to raise my siblings. I have had a lot of experiences with all types of kids considering that I had to cater to all the needs of my individual siblings. I babysat a lot in my spare time for neighbors, friends and family as well. I am very punctual and empathetic and ready to learn and cater to any child’s needs.

A little bit about me
Hi I’m Kira Heil and I’m looking for a family to nanny for! I’m a student at the University of Minnesota studying sociology of law. I am looking for a summer job as I start classes again in September, but I would love to work longer term if it would work with my fall schedule. I have experience with all ages except infants, although, I’ve raised a puppy before which is basically the same thing.😆 I’m looking for a kind, communicative, and most importantly, fun family! My favorite thing about working with kids is how funny and especially curious they are. They see things in a different way that I think everyone can benefit from!
