A little bit about me

Amy J. - Seeking Work in Cranston

Nanny Amy

Cranston, RI
$25/hr
Full-time
6 years experience

A little bit about me

My name is Amy and I am interested in working any time from 6 AM to 4 PM Monday through Friday and a pay of $25.

I am the oldest daughter of three kids. I am a first generation student and graduated from URI with a bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences with a specialization in Health Promotion in 2023. I like to think of myself as whimsical, I love to sing, draw, read, break out in the middle of a dance at any time and I always knew I wanted to work with kids at a young age. I have always had a passion for teaching and learning, so if there are any lessons/tutoring especially science or english ( favorite subjects in school) you’d like me to review definitely let me know.

My goal is to create a warm, welcoming, fun and positive space for my kids to feel safe, happy and inspired to be themselves. I am open to caring for children of all ages and I am good with following directions. I will always be in communication, sending updates throughout the day on what’s going on.

A little bit about me

My name is Lily, and I am a 19-year-old college student at the University of Bridgeport in Connecticut. I have always had a deep love for working with and caring for children. From a young age, I took on the responsibility of looking after my siblings and younger cousins whenever my family needed me. Over the years, I’ve also had the opportunity to care for the children of family friends, further strengthening my experience in childcare. What I love most about working with kids is watching them grow, learn, and develop their unique personalities. I enjoy engaging them in fun and educational activities, fostering creativity, and ensuring they feel safe, happy, and cared for. My background in babysitting has taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of creating a nurturing and structured environment. I’m excited about the opportunity to continue doing what I love—helping children learn and thrive while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands.
