A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Audri — I’m 27 years old and the eldest of four children. I’m calm, nurturing, and intuitive, with a lifetime of experience caring for my siblings and younger cousins. I love working with children, especially because of their constant curiosity about the world around them. I’m a big kid at heart, and I bring that energy to every day — keeping kids engaged, learning, and excited! I have experience with infants, toddlers, and young children.

Currently, I nanny full time for 2 boys—ages 5 and 8. I’m responsible for getting them ready for school/picking them up from school.

I’ve nannied part-time for a three-year-old girl. Our days included dance and music classes, imaginative play, potty training, and educational enrichment.

I’ve also been a key figure in my nephew’s life since birth. He was diagnosed with autism, and through that experience, I’ve learned how to connect with and support children with sensory sensitivities.

I’m First Aid/ CPR certified, and fully vaccinated.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Luna!
I was born and raised in Ecuador, moved to Canada for my studies, and am now living in the U.S. Caring for children has always been something close to my heart. I truly love spending time with kids and babies, supporting their growth, and learning from them every day. I approach childcare with patience, empathy, and genuine joy. Whether it’s engaging in creative play, helping with learning activities, or keeping a calm and safe environment, I always prioritize the child’s well-being.
I am reliable, organized, and attentive, and I treat the children in my care with the same love and respect I would give to my own family. I’m also fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to introduce children to a second language if parents are interested.
I’m excited to bring warmth, care, and dedication to the right family.

A little bit about me

My name is Kaley Williams and energy mine as well be my middle name! I am a young college student (psychology major) and professional dancer/choreographer. I have hopes of becoming a dancing children's therapist. Sounds a little crazy huh? Well, my mission to give children an outlet for expression in a positive, encouraging, fun artistic setting. I believe art is an amazing form of expression and can help kids get through tough adolescent issues they might face. From drawing, to singing, dancing, acting, I believe art expression is so important in any child's development. I've been a part time caretaker of two young children for the past two years and not only do I feel as though I impacted their growth, they've impacted mine and gave me new ways to look at life. I will always put the safety and happiness of the child before anything else. I believe life is short and gets more stressful the older you get. So children deserve to stay young innocent and happy.
