A little bit about me

Hello New Family!
I’m Cayla Lloyd, a 22-year-old soon-to-be college graduate with a Bachelors of Science in Integrated Communications from Liberty University. As I anticipate graduation, my passion for serving leads me to seek a full-time nanny role.

With nearly 8 years of childcare experience, including church volunteering and serving as a nanny, I’ve also worked with children with mild special needs. Energetic and a huge dog lover, I’m passionate about music and theater. I’ve played piano since age four and love outdoor activities.

Certified in CPR/First Aid (may need updating), I aim to be the perfect fit for your family's needs. I’m eager to share my spirit and skills with you and your little ones!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Violet, I have a deep passion for childcare.
In high school I was a camp counselor and transitioned to being a nanny throughout college.
During that time I was gifted the opportunity to care for children aging 3 months to 5 years old.
I have an extensive background in caring for neurodivergent children. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else, it’s incredibly rewarding.
I graduated from the university of Cincinnati this year, receiving my BA. I’m looking to move to NY to establish residency to pursue my masters degree… eventually.
Feel free to contact me and I can email you my resume with a more detailed list of my childcare/nannying experience.
During my free time I enjoy hiking, swimming reading and listening to jazz.
I look forward in hearing from you!
