A little bit about me

Hey my name is Deonya Rhodes I’m a 20year old college student double majoring in dental hygiene and early childhood education on my free time I love exploring nature and crafting some of my favorite foods are salmon and Mac and cheese ever since I was little I’ve had to play second mom
So raising my siblings and younger cousins started my career and while I was in school I had many extra curricular’s as far as childcare classes volunteering at daycares and shadowing elementary schools many say they don’t make much money but it never was about the money it was about bettering the youth cause it starts young so my passion and love for kids has always been instilled inside me.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Liv Johnson, and I’m 21 years old. I’m currently studying Child and Family Development at STLCC, with plans to graduate in 2026. I’m a full-time nanny, but I have a few days each week that are open—if you’re still looking for child care or interested in a nanny share, I’d love to talk!
I’m also teaching myself Mandarin and hold certifications in Water Safety for Parents and Caregivers and Adult, Child, and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED. I have previous experience working at a veterinary hospital, so I’m comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting and embroidering, which inspire creative activities for kids.
I live in the Tower Grove area but have a driver’s license and a reliable car, so I’m happy to travel. If I sound like a good fit for your family, please message me—I’d love to chat!
