A little bit about me

I’m 18 years old and I love working with kids! Being able to watch them learn and grow every day is just one of the perks of working with children. I’ve spent my entire life doing babysitting jobs and learning more about the different needs each individual child has with each sitting job. My entire life I have always been focused on becoming the best I could be so that when I have children of my own, they can have the same ambition and love of helping others. I’m excited to start on my adventure to become a full time nanny!

A little bit about me

Hi families! My name is Charlotte, and I’m currently a junior at Missouri State University majoring in Early Childhood Education! I have a huge passion for working with children and love being a part of their growth, learning, and everyday adventures. I have experience working in YMCA after-school care, as a paraprofessional, and babysitting for many families. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified!

I would describe myself as caring, patient, responsible, and outgoing. I love creating a fun and positive environment where kids feel safe, comfortable, and excited to be themselves! Whether it's doing crafts, playing outside, helping with homework, or finding fun activities to keep little ones busy, I enjoy making every day special. As a future early childhood educator, I understand how important it is to build meaningful relationships with children and their families. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and help care for your little ones!
