A little bit about me

Hello, sofia here , a little bit of my working background, i have been working as a nanny for 6 or more years and I love to work with kids because I personally find amazing the possibility to teach young humans how our world works and help them discover the world as an amazing place to live and all the new things that they can do in a fun, happy way.
About me in 24 years old and I consider myself patience, tidy and funny. Work with kids is also challenging and sometimes exhausting but is worth it.

Hello! My name is Erin and I am a 29 year old woman with no children but I do have a niece (1.5 yrs old) and nephew (6 yrs old) who are my world.

A little bit about me

I previously lived in Alabama and I’ve just relocated to Columbus, Ohio about a couple months ago. I’m now searching for a full time nanny job! My hourly rate is $15-$25 and I’m willing to start as soon as possible. I'm very flexible and reliable and my schedule is wide open so i'm extremely available. I have worked with kids all my life and enjoy it very much. I’ve attended a ministry school in birmingham and worked in youth ministry as a children’s director, so I'm very familiar with how to entertain and keep children. I also have worked in the nursery with children between the ages of 2 months up to 13 years old, so I have about 4-5 years of experience. I'm very high in energy and able to keep up. Look forward to hearing from you!
