A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Stephanie and I am currently looking for a job as a nanny where I can share my passion for creating a fun and encouraging atmosphere for children! I have background in nursing assistance and I am a fluent Spanish speaker. I am currently a college student in my sophomore year majoring in criminal justice! I am also currently a waitress at a family owned pizza shop, but after years of working in the food industry as a waitress, I really want to find a job where I can serve as a good role model and friend to a family in need of extra help! I have two younger siblings (a 12 year old brother and a 4 year old sister) who I have watched over from a very young age. As one of 5 kids, I understand how important it is for parents to provide the most efficient care for their child. This is my first time looking for a job as a nanny and I hope that I can find a loving and trusting family that will trust me to provide their child or children with a safe and exciting environment!

A little bit about me

Hello my name is Sienna! Not only do I have 3 younger siblings (the youngest of which is 9) who I helped raise but I also worked as a Youth Development Professional for 2 years. My main responsibilities were creating and teaching enrichment activities, tutoring, and overall supporting my kiddos through whatever was happening in their lives. I love being silly and playing and dancing around. I have the most professional experience with kids aged 8+ but I have changed many of my siblings’ diapers throughout the years.

Recent reference

"Sienna worked for me at the Boys and Girls Club and was a pleasure to have on staff. She was always on time, professional, and I don’t recall her having any absences. She has a natural ability to work well with kids of many ages, we service 6-8th graders during the school year and TK-8th over the summers. Sienna was an amazing employee and I’d happily have her back at the club if she ever was interested in coming back! I would absolutely trust her to watch my own child with zero hesitation."

A little bit about me

My name is Cherish, and I’m 21 years old, currently attending college studying biology with a focus on physical therapy. I’m on summer break from April through September, which gives me a very flexible schedule.

I have a strong background in childcare. I’ve been babysitting since I was 13, worked in a daycare, and most recently spent time as a live-in nanny. I come from a large, close-knit family—my mother and grandmother are both foster parents and have also run a daycare—so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. As the oldest of five, I’ve also had plenty of hands-on experience helping raise and support younger children.

In addition to childcare, I completed two years of culinary arts courses during high school, which allows me to prepare meals and create a fun, nurturing environment for kids.

I’m patient, positive, and always willing to learn and adapt to each child’s unique needs. I truly enjoy helping children grow, learn, and feel supported every day.
