A little bit about me
My name is Natalie, I am 22 years old. I recently started nannying from as young as 8 months so as old as 16. I work very well with children and infants and my past jobs have always been with children. As a nanny I’d tidy the house, make meals for the kids, take them to wherever they need to be, bond with the children and create a wonderful connection with them. I am very good with communication and am flexible with hours.

A little bit about me
I have a strong passion for working with children, animals, and staying active, which comes from growing up in a close-knit, outdoors-oriented family with three siblings. I attended Culver Academies, where a rigorous schedule helped me develop valuable life skills such as leadership, time management, and a strong work ethic. After graduation, I began attending Indiana University studying pre-business and Media Advertising.
I have prior experience working as a nanny, where I received excellent feedback from the family and have been invited to return this summer. I pride myself on being both responsible and engaging I’m confident in setting boundaries when needed, while also knowing how to have fun and connect with children in a positive, energetic way.
