I will provide a safe, engaging, and fun environment for your children. While safety is my top priority, I want your children to feel comfortable and excited for their time with me. I am infant, child, and adult CPR certified. I am also AED and first aid certified through the Red Cross. I have many younger siblings with whom I have been trusted to care for since I was young. Being the oldest out of my siblings, I have learned how to be responsible and attentive. I would love to help your child with homework, projects, reading, and other activities. I am a good cook and clean well too. I will help teach your children good hygiene.

A little bit about me
I’m excited to share a little about myself as I pursue a nanny position. I am the eldest of 17 siblings, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages from newborns to teens. Growing up in a large family has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to stay calm and organized in busy environments.
I currently work as an Assistant Manager at Domino’s, where I’ve built strong skills in communication, multitasking, and leadership. I’m reliable, punctual, and used to managing a fast-paced schedule. I am also certified in eye exams, which has helped me develop attention to detail and a strong sense of care for others’ well-being.
In my free time, I love being outdoors, spending time with family, and enjoying basketball and arts and crafts.
