A little bit about me

Hello my name is Dan! I grew up going to summer camp every year and I love caring for children. I have often been described by kids I used to nanny as "a kid in an adult body". I love to be silly, dance, and be active outside. When it comes to caring for children safety is the number one goal for me which I accomplish with clear communication on rules and boundaries. My number two goal is fun! A little bit about me, I have a cat named Rumi (after the lead singer of K-Pop Demon Hunters), I'm in a run club, and I like to knit and crochet (I'm working on a sweater right now). I'm looking forward to connecting!

A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Emma, I was born in South Korea but moved to Boston in 8th grade. I just graduated from college with a studio arts degree and I want to take a year off with flexible work so I thought baby sitting was the perfect job! I have worked with children ages 4 and up since I worked at a cooking studio as an assistant for 4 years and the main birthday chef for a little under a year!
