A little bit about me
Hello my name is Tayea(Tay-uh)! I am a very outgoing and energetic person. I grew up in a big family so I have lots of nieces and nephews I’ve taken care of along with also babysitting through middle school and high school. I am a CNA and have been working in Senior Care for 5 years, I also worked at a pediatric long term center taking care of medically complex children. I am working towards being a pediatric nurse but I am currently waiting for a spot to open up in my program so in the meantime I wanted to get some more childcare experience since working with kids is what I love to do! I also worked a home healthcare for the past 3 years doing housekeeping, meal prep, driving to appointments/errands, and other ADL’s. I am a huge animal lover and have a golden retriever myself! I am also a big outdoorsy person and love taking every chance to enjoy good weather and nature. I am a very go with the flow person and willing to work with you!

A little bit about me
Hi my name is Melissa. For the past eight months I've been working as a direct support specialist and a camp counselor at Ramapo for Children in Rhinebeck, NY. But I have decided that I needed a change of pace and direction. Due to my new position as a direct support specialist, I feel as though I haven't had enough time to connect with the kids I work with anymore and the demand of the job and lack of quality has become a burden to me. A plus is that I'm learning Spanish, so the kids can learn with me.

A little bit about me
I have been a nanny/babysitter for many years and love to watch and engage with the kids I watch! Even though I am currently in school going on a different path, working with kids is something that I have always been passionate about. A little more about me - I am originally from Atlanta, GA. I moved to New Orleans about a year ago to pursue law school. I am going into my second year at Tulane Law School, and I have immensely enjoyed getting to know the city of New Orleans.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Natalie, I come from a large family from a small town with loads of child/home care experience. Not only was I the oldest but caring for my family is what inspired me to take up jobs anywhere I could if it meant I could learn and grow WITH children and help them in any way I could. I do have CPR and First Aid certifications and am available to do any house work or meal planning/prepping needed. I could eventually be open to a live-in nanny opportunity if I could build a strong connection with the family beforehand . I am only looking at part time positions at the moment because i will be attending UNO in hopes of gaining my early education degree to further this passion in caring for and teaching children.
