A little bit about me
I’m Kamryn! I’m an BYU graduate with a bachelor’s in English. I’m the oldest of 5 siblings, so my babysitting gigs started there while parents worked full time. I’ve also been a go-to sitter for my friends and family and have experience as a full time nanny for a two year old. I love kids, taught 6 and under swim lessons, and currently am a substitute teacher in the Salt Lake City school district. Love the little humans and would take great care of yours!

"Kamryn is an absolute delight! Kind, funny and so caring. My kids adore her and so do I. It was great finding someone who runs around, gets on the floor and PLAYS with my kids. We were lucky to have her be apart of our kids lives. 10/10 would recommend."

A little bit about me
My name is Claire! I am outgoing, loving, and caring. I believe in letting children explore the world and learn how things work. I love seeing kids make connections and learn new things. I’m a big advocate for creativity and curiosity. Often times my activities include: letting children have independent play time, learning to share, learn how to accomplish tasks, explore nature, sing, dance, build and stack, learn colors, shapes & numbers, potty training, and learning how to cook, clean & most importantly laugh! Although these are a lot of things, I take them at the children’s speed and ensure it’s not overwhelming. I have always loved kids and caring for people. I worked as a CNA on and off for a few years, and have always been a babysitter as needed. I’m currently nannying for a lovely family with a 2 year old, and I’ve been working for them for a year. I love the little one, but I am looking for something closer to the SLC area. I look forward to meeting you and speaking with you!
