A little bit about me

Hi! I am a grandmotherly type caregiver, who believes in lovingly nurturing little ones while providing guidance and boundaries. I encourage lots of exploration and curiosity. I am a mental health therapist by profession and training, which had provided an education in childhood development.

In case you are now asking yourself why this therapist is wanting to be a nanny, the answer to that is easy. I still work as a therapist part time, but to be honest, I am burnt out in the profession and am seeking more balance in my life by turning to my other love, children. I set my own hours for my clinical practice which allows me to be flexible for the family for whom I would be providing care.

I worked in daycare settings and was a nanny to a family when I was in my 20’s. More recently, I cared for a sweet baby girl for a family in Hollywood, CA. I would love to talk to you to see if I might be a good fit in helping you care for your growing family.

A little bit about me

I'm 20 years old and going to college at Virginia Military Institute. I have three siblings: my own twin brothers, who are 12, and a baby sister, who is 10. I've helped take care of them since the day they were born, so I like to think I am semi-experienced with kids.

A little bit about me

Hello
I’m a 18 year old high school graduate who’s been babysitting since I was 14. I’m looking for a career in childcare and thought this would be a great first job. I’m still young in age but old in knowledge so I still enjoy going to the movies, arcades, bowling, etc. My pay rate starts at $10/hr but after 10pm is a slight up charge. I am alcohol, drug and tobacco free. Good with small breed pets uncomfortable with large breed pets.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Maya, I'm 16 years old and still in high school looking for a summer job! I haven't nannied in the past because I recently got my license, however, I do have a 5 year old sister that I frequently watch and care for, so I do have experience with kids. Due to recently having got my licence, I can only legally drive around one non-related individual. I already have a part-time job so I am not available on weekends, but I am available every weekday until 5 o'clock, with the exception of a two week period, during which I have a planned vacation.
