A little bit about me

My name is Elise Ussery. I’m a sophomore at the college at southeastern in Wake Forest, NC. I’m the second child in a family of five, and I grew up taking care of my three younger siblings due to my mom having cancer. My mom improved, and after moving to the Raleigh/Wake Forest area for school I started nannying. I nannied my first whole year at my school. Recently, I got out of a relationship and just needed a change. I have always loved New York City and have gone on mission trips to there since I was 15. If I find a job, I’m looking to move to New York. Your family will have my undivided attention, the only times I’d ask off is an hour or two on Sunday mornings to go to church. I would be willing to live with your family, and I would cook and clean. Although I am 19, I have a ton of experience with children and I would treat your children with the upmost respect and love.

Thank you,

Elise Ussery.

A little bit about me

Hey Lovely Parents,

My name is Astride and I have been working in the childcare industry for over 20 years. From the age of 12, families have entrusted me with the care of their precious children, and I feel honored.

I offer families a great deal of flexibility and I've traveled with my employers, done overnights, and I worked as a live-in. I am a pro when it comes to establishing sleep schedules, potty training, developing comprehension skills, and implementing effective disciplinary systems that concentrate on taking preventative measures and positive redirection-- translation: I can help with toddler tantrums. I've worked with children of all ages from newborns, to preteens.

I use creative methods in order to reach children. I'm known for using my obsession with musicals to orchestrate musical numbers using stuffed animals. I am a big believer of educational fun time-- and I like to keep kids busy with adventurous outings, art, music, dance, science experiments, baking projects and reading. If your kids don't like to read, I'll turn them...and that's a promise. I focus on nourishing independence by letting children practice things on their own in a safe environment, offering options, while setting boundaries. Due to my methods I've developed strong and lasting bonds with the kids I watch and their parents. I have worked with parents with demanding professions, and I make it my top priority to be a team player who works for the betterment of the children.

I am CPR certified, and I am up to date with the TDAP vaccination, and TB test. A few extra perks is that I can help with beginner to intermediate French, I love to cook healthy and tasty meals, and I'm always up for embarrassing myself for a good laugh.

A little bit about me

I am Raeesa (18), South African currently a live-in nanny in Milan for 2 boys aged 4 and 6 until late June 2018 (will be more than happy to write a reference upon request or have a personal conversation over the phone). I have 2 years experience working with kids. I am fluent in English and I have a good knowledge of Afrikaans + I am first aid trained.


I would much prefer a live in situation. If this is not ideal for your family I can offer my services for just the summer. I have always had a passion working with children. I am talkative, I love to laugh and my friends/family consider me to be quite a humorous character.


Job: getting the children ready for school, making breakfast, taking/fetching from school, making afternoon snacks, taking them to extra activities, helping with homework, making dinner, playing with them at the park, pool etc, light housework, babysitting occasionally and most importantly keeping them happy and making their life and yours easier.


I am patient. For me being able to communicate well is the most important factor when looking after children.I love travelling,hiking, gyming and field hockey. I enjoy cycling + visiting the beach.

Hobbies: violin and building puzzles. I love volunteering at underprivileged schools and getting to know their personalities, e.g activities I would do with the children are decorating cupcakes + finger painting. I enjoy baking/cooking which I do often. I did consumer studies as a subject in which they teach nutrition and how to follow a healthy lifestyle with the balance of exercising + eating correctly therefore i am able to cook healthy meals for your family.

I absolutely love children and enjoy the energy that they have. I'm excited to learn the different cultures and family dynamics of others, which will be both refreshing and insightful. I hope to entice your family with the rich South African culture that I have been fortunate to experience and teach them all the values that I have been taught.
