A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Lewis Kaufman! I am 21 years old and a recent graduate from Grand Canyon University with a bachelor’s in Christian Studies! I love working with kids! I worked at the Monon Community Center children’s daycare for two years in high school, and worked at Miracle Camp and Retreat Center as a camp counselor this past summer! I also have six younger siblings! Being around younger kids has basically been my whole life, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything! When I’m not working, I love playing with my siblings, playing board games, going for runs outside, and hiking through nature! I’m also a lover of Jesus and plan to go into a church residency in the fall!

A little bit about me

Hi everyone! My name is Lily Menard, and I’m a 17-year-old current junior at Carmel High school, offering baby sitting care in surrounded areas. I have a very large extended family and have been taking care of my nieces and nephews for a very long time. I am very comfortable with all ages. I am a very active person, I love to be outside. I am a licensed driver so can provide transportation, and some fun adventures!

I have pretty open availability and can help with meal prepping, cleaning around the house (even deep cleaning), laundry, pickup/drop off, feeding, and more. I also have 3 dogs so I will happily care for any animals!
I am in school up until May 22nd, so I can currently do afternoons after 5 and weekends. My availability is extremely open anytime after that date, for the whole summer!

hope you all have a great day!

A little bit about me

I am older and have my own child which helps bring perspective on two important areas. First, I don't take for granted the fact that you are entrusting your child's care to me therefore, I won't have my head in my phone all the time. And second, this job is important to me so helping your child learn and grow is an essential part of meeting milestones and contributing to them being a happy, healthy child.

A little bit about me

I am a young grandma newer to Carmel. I was a nanny to my 3 and 6 year old grandsons until last month, when my daughter left her corporate job. I worked 12 hours a day caring for them, cleaning and cooking for everyone, and I loved it!
I am mature, but have a lot of energy and stamina, and I enjoy children tremendously. I could be a great help to a family needing a responsible, gentle adult caring for their children.
