A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Shayna! I’m 21, and my passions include music, singing, family, writing, reading and children! I grew up in India, as my father is Indian, and this is where my love for children truly began. My mother has an orphanage for children with special needs there and some of my earliest memories were spent taking care of the children and getting to love them. I moved to America for high school and college, and I just recently graduated from Christ for the Nations University and am looking for work. I have been a teacher’s assistant at a preschool as well as a program specialist at the Boys and Girls Club of America, and I have nannied on and off while being a full-time student in Dallas. My favorite takeaway from the Boys and Girls Club was getting to teach the kids about boundaries, respect, love, unity, mental health, speaking up, and so many other crucial topics that could help them not only love other but also love themselves! It’s always an honor to pour into the lives of children

A little bit about me

I have spent the past 10 years as a nanny with the exception of spending a few years working in finance, marketing, as well as a nonprofit organization for individuals with disabilities.

During my years in childcare, I have worked with twins, triplets, quadruplets, special needs, ages premature to teenager, and even families with up to 11 children!

I have an educational background in life science which has played an integral role in my passion for adopting a mindset that embraces a life centered around thinking and learning-especially during the formative years of cognitive, social, emotional and physical development.

My passion is to provide fun and creative experiences where children are encouraged, supported, nurtured and challenged. Implementing creative ways to move and nourish the body, enhance brain proficiency and cherish the unique spirit that each child innately assumes is the thesis of my hearts desire.

A little bit about me

I am finishing up my senior year at Kansas State University. My major was elementary education, as I love working with kids. However, I will be graduating with education studies, since I am unsure what I want to do. I thought that after graduation, nannying would be a good fit for me since I love working with kids and getting to know each family.

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Brooke Davis. I'm graduating this May from Kansas State University with a bachelor's degree in Social Studies Education, and I’ll be starting my master’s in Special Education right after graduation. For the past four summers, I’ve worked as a nanny, but the kids I cared for are getting older now, so I’m looking for something fun and part-time this summer. This fall, I’ll be starting my first year as a high school special education teacher in Spring Hill, KS, and I’m also super excited to be coaching middle school cheer!
