A little bit about me
Hellooo, My name is Tenyl (Tah-neil) but i usually prefer Tee. I’m 23 years young and i’ve been watching kids my whole life although I officially became a nanny in 2019. I love kids and wish to some day have my own but until then I’ll be helping families that need an extra set of hands. I love to read, i love to paint. i’m very big on self care and cry if you need to because hey sometimes i just need to cry it out too. i love disney movies and cartoons. it’s a little cold for it now but i love swimming and love to take the kids outside for activities. If you consider me I will love your kids like they’re my own. 🫶🏾

"The way she cared for my daughter and the amount of helps she has been and gave, I’m so grateful to have her in our lives! She helped me scheduling, giving her bath time. Lunch dinner and tucked in bed. She’s always been great with kids she was with us when my baby was 6 months and now she’s 2. Even over FaceTime my baby gets the phone and she’ll teach her new words and colors. Tenyl is a great candidate for this position hands down! ."

A little bit about me
Hello! I have a Bachelor's degree in Social Work and am currently pursuing my Master's in Social Work, and have taken courses on child development and psychology and learning differences. While working in child welfare, I received training on trauma informed care and Trust Based Relational Intervention. My work experiences have also led me to become an absolute stickler regarding safe sleep practices. I would love to work with your little (or older!) ones and help them develop and reach their goals at their own pace. Every child learns and grows differently, and that should be celebrated.

A little bit about me
I graduated from Russellville High School in 2019, and have been a full time nanny since. A lot of my life is based around my job, and the work that comes with it. However, in my free time I enjoy snuggling with my cat, spending time with family and friends, cleaning/organizing (100%), and devoting time to self healing/mindful work. The first job I received as a nanny was in Arizona, caring for twin toddlers. I worked for the family from August 2019, to April 2021. Living in St Louis, I have been with my current family since May 2021. This job requires special needs care. I take my job very seriously, and come in everyday with an open mind and heart. The safety and well being of the children is always top priority. My approach to handling tough situations is to respond from the heart, leading to healthy behaviors/solutions. Providing an open, fun, engaging, and loving environment is crucial for the kid's growth and success! These are values I employ everyday within my job/life.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Dana and I enjoy all art forms. In my spare time I enjoy gardening, botany, and crafts. I own a small business called 3rdEyeWokeDesigns where I dabble in prints and potions. I’m very easy to get along with and patient when getting to know other people.
In the past I’ve had a few baby sitting jobs, and when around family they call me Aunty day day because they know I enjoy soothing and calming children, but most of all teaching them.
As an adult we sometimes lose sight that we were ever children. But at my core I believe it is children who capture and create the beauty of reality because they see what is, not what you just want them to see.
If given the chance to nanny I believe in the growth and development of kids, not just sitting them in front of a tv but teaching them new skills and activities to expand their minds and talents. So be prepared for daily videos of sticky hands & art videos.

"Kelli connected so well with our son! She has a great knowledge of working with different ages, and did a nice job connecting with parents as well. We loved knowing that Kelli was at our son’s school even though he wasn’t always with her, it was reassuring to know she was nearby! I definitely recommend Kelli as a nanny & we miss her here!"
