A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Ryan. I’m 25 years old and live locally. I attended college for several years studying psychology, sociology, history, film, communication, and English before deciding to step away and pursue a different path.

I’ve worked four summers at two different Christian camps from May through mid-August. In those roles, I supervised and mentored kids of various ages, helped lead activities, kept schedules on track, and made sure everyone stayed safe and engaged throughout the day.

I’ve been a competitive runner for most of my life and also compete in sprint swimming, so I’m very active and enjoy spending time outdoors. I’m dependable, family-oriented, and comfortable taking responsibility. I’d love the opportunity to support a family and create a safe, positive environment for their children.

A little bit about me

Hello,


Hello! My name is Heaven, and I’m currently finishing my last year of undergrad. I am actively seeking a full-time or part-time nanny position, where I can continue to provide the same level of care and attention that has made me successful in the past. Throughout my experience, I have worked with children of all age groups, from infants to adolescents, as well as adults and children with special needs.

I pride myself on being an empathetic, caring, and nurturing individual, qualities that I believe are essential when working with children and families. Whether it's helping with homework, engaging in play, or providing emotional support, I always strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I understand that every child is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs, whether they need extra attention, structured routines, or creative activities.

I look forward to working with you and your children!

A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm DaYonna . I am currently working on my Associate's Degree at Erie Community College, and I have been caring for children since I was 16 years old as a babysitter and as the oldest of 2 siblings. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers, and I also spent three years babysitting a six-year-old girl on the autism spectrum. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach.
Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together! I'm available on weekdays until 6:30 p.m., and I have the flexibility to work four weekend days each month. I'd love to meet you and get to know your children.
