A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Naysa. I’m 20 years old and currently a sophomore/junior in college, majoring in Nursing. My goal is to work in the NICU, where I can combine my passion for healthcare with my love for caring for infants.

I’ve always enjoyed being around children and find great joy in engaging them through crafts, fun activities, and creative play. I’m a patient, caring, and organized person, and I bring those qualities into everything I do—whether in the classroom, at work, or when spending time with kids.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Andrew Edwards, and I’m a 29-year-old father of three children, all born in 2020, including my son who is autistic. Being a hands-on parent has given me real-life experience in caring for children with different needs and personalities. I’ve also spent much of my life babysitting for family and friends, which has deepened my understanding of patience, structure, and fun in a child’s day-to-day life. Outside of childcare, I enjoy sports, painting, and writing—activities I love to share with kids to help spark their creativity and keep them active and engaged. I’m passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and joyful environment for the children I work with.
