A little bit about me
Hello!! I have been babysitting and nannying for around 10 years and I have loved every moment with every child I have gotten to hang out with. Additionally I worked at a children’s theatre for 2 years back in Texas where I’m from teaching musical theatre Voice to 8-12 year olds, taught English online to Chinese children, served as an intern for two separate children’s theatres, and am always looking for a chance to meet more kids and inspire creativity. I love going for walks, playing at the park, doing arts and crafts, learning new things and just having a fantastic time. Recently I watched two two year olds and we had a nice schedule we liked to keep so that when Dad came home, everything was on track for them to sleep through the night, and do it all again the next day. If you have any questions at all please message me and let me know. Thank you so much!

A little bit about me
Hi,
My name is Tiana and I'm 21 years old. I'm a huge kid at heart and I believe children are one of the greatest sources of joy, which has made my job really awesome and fulfilling. I have been babysitting early elementary aged children since I was the age of 16. I'm also CPR certified. While offering childcare, the qualities of being patient, upbeat and attentive were vital traits to possess and it remains to be a great honor helping busy moms and dads.
Although I've mainly offered childcare to early elementary aged children, I'm transitioning to younger kids. It's been absolutely amazing babysitting and tutoring 4-8 year olds, but I'm looking forward to expanding and gaining more experience with infants. I'm one to stick to a household schedule, and I'm very patient, so I'm excited to start offering care to younger children. Of course, by observing mothers keenly and following their daily routines for the little ones carefully. I'm available from Monday through Friday, from 7:00am to 6:00pm. And I am also comfortable with pets, if there's any, I will treat them as an extension to the family.
Note: I don't have a car.
