A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Katie Middleton and I just recently moved to Melbourne from Tulsa, Oklahoma. I just left my job in Tulsa as a teacher in the Toddler 2 classroom at Kirk Crossing Preschool. I worked there from August 2017 to May 2018 in the Infants and Toddlers class, then left to work as a nanny for a sweet 6 year old girl with the genetic mutation MEF2C. I worked with her from May 2018 to December 2018, after which I returned to Kirk Crossing Preschool as the hours fit my school schedule better. I absolutely love working with children, and I have been doing so since I started babysitting at 16. I would love to answer any questions you may have. If you would like to have me in for an interview, send me a message and we can schedule it! Thanks!

A little bit about me
Hello! I’m Lacey, I’ve been a nanny for a few families over the last 19 years. I have worked with newborn through school aged children. I have two children of my own 7&13. I have a background working with special needs children as well. I love to create a safe, loving environment with lots of hands on learning that is age appropriate for your child. I have a clean driving record and love to not only learn at home but also around the community. Days at the zoo, library, parks, a farm and more to keep your child engaged and excited about each day! I have my RBT credentials and experience with adoptive families as well. I’m looking forward to finding a family to support and become a part of your little ones story.

A little bit about me
I’m 22 and based in Melbourne, FL, with nearly 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to middle schoolers.
I’m very compassionate, upbeat, and hands-on, and I love meeting kids where they’re at, whether that means imaginative play, helping regulate big emotions, or keeping a steady routine that makes them feel secure.
I’m CPR and first aid certified and comfortable with everything from meal prep and cleaning to multitasking and managing busy days. More than anything, I aim to create a space where kids feel safe, happy, and genuinely cared for because, to me, this isn’t just a job; it’s something I feel called to do.

I then took on another family part time when the boys where in school and then I eventually had my own son.

I am 29 years old and I’m a single mother . I am willing to watch the kids at my place or at yours .
