A little bit about me

Hi there! A little about me.. I have been working as a nanny since I was 14. I’ve watched many kids over the years. Whether it be in a daycare/early childhood education center or in public schools and in homes, I have loved working with children! I have experience with special needs children and am entirely willing to care for pets and perform other household chores throughout the day. I am temporarily living in the Fort Polk area for the next 6 months while my husband is working on base installing fiber optics. If I sound like a good fit for your family I would love to chat about being your nanny! We plan on being fully moved in around mid May!

A little bit about me

I am compassionate, fun, outgoing and one of my biggest passions in life is being around and/or serving children. I used to babysit years ago, but haven't the past few years due to career paths (other than watching my 1.5 y/o niece at times). In college I created an non-profit organization that served special needs children through arts and crafts which was more fulfilling than words can describe. I recently moved to Fort Polk due to the military and would love to start up babysitting/nannying again.

I am creative and have lots of energy to keep your children entertained whether it's being active outside or playing games, doing art, reading, etc. inside. If they are in school, I'd love to help them with their school work or even tutor if needed. I love cleaning/ organizing so I'd be happy to help with that as well.

I am starting off part-time as I plan on also volunteering in the local area, however, if I seem to connect with a family well, I am open to being a full-time nanny!

A little bit about me

Hi! I've been babysitting for about 5 years and I love doing it! It doesn't feel like a job to me and that's why I love it! I started from my little sister, to cousins, to family friends children. I just recently moved to Fort Polk because my husband is stationed here and I'm trying to find a nannying job so I can get us extra income, and just because I love doing it!

We couldn’t have asked for a better nanny."
