A little bit about me

I'm Sahara and I'm new to nannying and babysitting, but my mom is a full time nanny and teacher so I have learned a lot from her. I am a pre-vet major in college and know lots about animals and lots about healthcare and first aid for both humans and animals. I have lots to learn, but I'm the hardest worker you will find!

A little bit about me

I love to be outside enjoying the fresh air whether it’s just for a walk, going to the park or exploring around. I love to read books, arts and crafts, building (magnets, blocks, train sets). I like to bake and cook (I’m a big foodie). I was a gymnast my whole life and coached for 5 years before becoming a nanny.

A little bit about me

I have a lot of experience with children of all ages from the time I was young. I have a 1 year old daughter who would be with me as well and it also gives her a chance to be around and play with other kids!! I live here with my fiancé and daughter alone so she doesn’t ever get to interact with other kids unless we go see family out of state so it would be a great opportunity for her as well!! With not having any family around it’s been hard for me to get a regular job without daycare and I love kids of all ages so I figure I try this out as a last resort!! I always enjoy playing games and helping kids learn whether it’s with flash cards or reading books with them so I assure you they’ll enjoy coming to spend the day with me in your home or in mine!! I’m a mother so I know the worry of putting your child in someone else’s care (that’s why I’ve yet to do so myself) but I’ll love them just as much as my own!! I hope I’ll be a great fit for you and your family!!

A little bit about me

Hey all!! I am looking for a consistent nanny or babysitting position for the summer.
A little about me: I am currently going to be a Junior at UTK, studying Psychology, Child Development, and Journalism. I have been babysitting since I was 16 years old.
I have dealt with kids ages 0-12, up to 4 kids at once, and have worked with kids with disabilities. During the winter and summer breaks, I have been a full time nanny.
My favorite way to be involved with the kids is play with them in any activities they enjoy as hands on as possible!
Looking forward to hearing from you all, and I would love to tell you more about myself and past experiences.
