A little bit about me

Hello my name is Krystal, I’m 28. I’m a mom to a wonderful little girl. I worked in childcare for 6+ years. I work with children with autism for 5 years. I worked with infants in a daycare setting for 6 months. I work as an assistant teacher for elementary school kids for 3 years. I’m CPR Certified, I love cleaning and cooking. & most importantly I love having fun with children. I’m that mom/nanny who is always looking for fun activities and places to try. I’m also the nanny that’s very observant and always checking surroundings. If something doesn’t look safe or feel safe trust me your child won’t be around it. I’m a parent myself so I know how it feels to have to put your trust in the hands of someone else when it comes to your little one and I’m the perfect fit for the job. During the week day I will need to pick my daughter up from school by 5:30pm.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Deja and I’m dedicated to providing nurturing, engaging, and reliable care for children. With nearly eight years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working with children of all ages and abilities, helping them learn, grow, and thrive. I began as a babysitter at 15 and have since taken on roles as a caregiver, a Registered Behavior Technician, an assistant teacher at a learning center, as an IEP aide in an elementary and middle school, and now as a registered ABA Feeding Therapist.

These experiences have equipped me with the skills to meet each child’s unique needs while fostering their creativity, independence, and confidence. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and communicative, ensuring that parents feel at ease and supported. Whether it’s assisting with homework, planning fun educational activities, or simply being a trustworthy presence, I’m committed to exceptional care.

Thank you for considering me—I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

I am a nanny who has worked as a preschool teacher, tutor and babysitter. I have over 15 years experience with children of all ages, from newborns to elementary school aged. I also have worked with children with disabilities.
I am flexible and looking for a full time position. I do light housework, organize play dates, create developmentally appropriate learning environments for each child's unique needs, and I also cook homemade baby food. I'm open to extra chores such as laundry or dishes. I have experience with newborns, twins and multiple children. I have my own transportation, and am willing to run errands or take children to activities, the library, nature centers or even swimming. I am first aide/CPR/SIDS certified, and have early childhood certifications. In my spare time I love to read and travel, which I try to incorporate into caring for children. If you're looking for a creative, dependable and experienced nanny for your family, I hope to hear from you.
