A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kayleigh, and I’m 20 years old. I’m the oldest of four, so caring for little ones has always been a natural part of my life. While I haven’t officially worked as a nanny before, I have a lot of hands-on experience watching my younger siblings and my baby brother-in-law, who has Down syndrome. I’ve helped with diaper changes, nap time routines, playtime, and keeping everyone safe and happy.
I’m patient, dependable, and love spending time with kids—whether that means helping with homework, going on walks, or planning fun, creative activities. I was CPR certified in middle and high school, and while it’s been a few years since I last renewed it, I’m familiar with basic safety and first aid and would be happy to update my certification if needed.
I’m excited to bring my positive energy, responsibility, and caring personality to a family that values kindness, trust, and fun!
