A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Alexandra, and I’m a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) with experience in both childcare and behavioral support. I have worked with children of various ages, helping them learn, grow, and build essential skills in a safe and nurturing environment.
In addition to providing direct care and developmental support, my daily duties include assisting with structured activities, maintaining a clean and organized environment through light clinic housekeeping, and preparing meals or snacks for the children when feasible. My background in applied behavior analysis (ABA) helps me create positive learning experiences tailored to each child’s individual needs. I’m passionate about fostering an environment where every child feels supported, understood, and encouraged to reach their full potential.

A little bit about me
Hi! I'm Emma Cmehil, a 20-year-old student studying Business Administration online through Indiana University Indianapolis. I have a year of daycare experience caring for children from newborns to 4 years old, and I come from a big family with nine siblings, so caring for kids has always been a part of my life. I was also a lifeguard for two years, which taught me responsibility, patience, and safety awareness. I love creating a fun, safe, and welcoming environment where children can learn, grow, and feel cared for. I would love the opportunity to support your family!

Hi my name is Audrey! I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and I am now 19. I graduated from greenwood Christian academy high school in 2024. Last year I began working as a registered behavioral technician and babysit on the side. However I’d love to dive deeper into nannying. I have three younger brothers and have always loved being around kids and taking care of those younger than me!
