A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sarina, I am 19 years old and grew up on the east side of Indianapolis. I live on my own with a beautiful cat! I am a fun and respectful nanny! I absolutely love kids. Taking care of kids is my passion. I used to volunteer to help out with kids in church. I’m willing to help with anything from date night, taking the kiddos to school, and being when them while you are hard at work. I’m here to make your life less stressful!

I currently work full time at Starbucks, but am looking for a new career in nannying. I would love to work something out with you and your family!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Kay. I have over 10 years of professional childcare experience, working with children from infancy through the school-age years. Since moving to Indianapolis, I’ve been with the same family for nearly six years, caring for their three girls and becoming a trusted part of their family along the way.

As the girls have grown, my role has naturally evolved from hands-on childcare into more of a family assistant/household management position. My experience includes managing schedules and activities, school pickups, errands, grocery shopping, laundry, light household tasks, meal prep and keeping the day-to-day details of a busy household running smoothly.

I’m dependable, organized, patient and very comfortable jumping in wherever a family needs an extra set of hands. I truly value building long-term relationships with the families I work with and hope to find another family where I can become a trusted part of their team.
