"Cynthia has taken care of all my 3 boys since they were a few months old. She is caring, and meticulous when it comes to care taking. She is responsible, yet friendly, approachable and the kids love her. I would recommend Cynthia to anyone. She has loads of experience, and my kids definitely miss having her around."

A little bit about me
I have always enjoyed working with kids. I started volunteering teaching Sunday school at my church when I was in middle school. I mostly worked with kids ages 2-6, but have experience working with younger and older children. I volunteered in that role throughout high school and loved it. I became one of the lead teachers as well. I babysat for six or more families throughout high-school. I have some experience with children who have special needs. I have experience as a lifeguard and swim instructor, with that I am also First Aid/CPR certified. I am comfortable with all types of pets, and am willing to provide care for them if needed.

Hi my name is Gissela but I go by my middle name Nataly. I've taken care of my nieces and nephews way back in the day since they were newborn up until they turned 14/15 years. If my brother or sisters wanted a date night, they knew who to call. I am reliable, dependable and have CPR & first aid training, it also helps, I've spent 6 years helping my husband with his CPR classes ( he is an instructor) and years of watching the videos really sticks. I am 37 years of age, married, haven't been blessed with kids, but we have a little cat named Penny who we adopted 5 years ago as a kitten. I started my business selling cookies & sweets about a year ago and hope it grows!

A little bit about me
My name is Heaven Leigh (Heavenly). I am 25 years old. I decided to become a nanny when I used to babysit back in middle school and fell in love with everything about it. I've cared for all children of various ages, needs, and types of personalities. I know that every child is different and has their own way of doing things and learning things. Which is what makes them Amazing.

We absolutely recommend him to other families!"
