A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jillian, and I’m a warm, responsible, and deeply caring person who genuinely loves working with children. I have over a year and a half of experience caring for children between the ages of 3–15 and naturally bring patience, playfulness, attentiveness, and emotional presence into the environments I’m part of.

Professionally, I’ve worked for years as a registered dietitian and am currently building my own private practice as a female entrepreneur. As I continue growing my business, I’m looking for a nannying position with a loving family where I can offer dependable, nurturing support while maintaining some flexibility in my schedule.

I’m highly intuitive, empathic, organized, trustworthy, and grounded. I value creating a safe, connected, and joyful environment for children while also bringing maturity, integrity, and strong communication to the families I work with. I truly care about helping children feel seen, supported, encouraged, and cared for.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Hannah, and I am a recent Boise State graduate looking for a summer nannying position before I begin graduate school this fall.
I have worked as a swim instructor and swim coach at the YMCA for the past 3 years, working with children ages 3–16. Through those experiences, I’ve learned how to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment while also building strong relationships with both kids and parents.
I am also the oldest of six kids, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life! I love staying active, engaging with kids, and helping make everyday routines enjoyable and positive. I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and excited to find a great family to work with this summer!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m 19 and a student at Boise State. I’m a certified lifeguard and swim instructor with current CPR and First Aid training. I’ve worked with children ages 2–14 since 2023, spending summers teaching swim lessons, playing games, helping with homework, cooking, and driving.

I come from a big family with three sisters and have always loved being around kids—they’re funny, creative, and endlessly curious. I’d describe myself as fun, caring, and responsible. In my free time, I love running, baking (my chocolate chip cookies are the best!), and chatting with my mom.

I’ve built my college schedule to allow flexibility, especially around school pickup hours. I am also available on most weekends.

I look forward to meeting you and your family!
