A little bit about me

I have years of experience working as a social worker and in an early intervention services program that provides services to children from 0-3. I am ready for a change in my career and life. I would love the opportunity to work with a family and help a little one to meet their developmental milestones. I am bi-cultural and bilingual in Spanish. I would love to share my culture and language with a family and the child. I love sharing my cooking skills as well if the family likes Mexican food. I want to be impactful for a child's development and well-being.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Carissa Lauer and I am 19 years old. I have a great amount of nannying experience and I have been working and nannying children for about five years now. I love trying new things out and I am a very easy going person. I love cooking and baking and I am good about cleaning up after myself. I am looking to move somewhere and think being a live in nanny would be great for you and I. I am currently residing in Maryland where I nanny 30 hours a week, Mon-Fri, but soon the kids will go back to school. I would love to chat more about how I can be of help to you and your family!

A little bit about me

hello! my name is Harper, I graduated from Rex Putnam High School this year and currently work part time as a waitress. I have been caring for children for as long as I can remember. Weather it was my little brother, cousins, the neighbor hood kids, and then eventually being hired by families to be a regular sitter. I've always loved childcare and have never really viewed it as a "job". However, I have been working in the food or retail industry for the last few years, and would love an opportunity to be a nanny again.
