A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Kedica. I'm a recent high school honors graduate who takes pride in being a dependable, patient, responsible and attentive young adult who genuinely enjoys taking care of children! I have my own personal care taking experience being an older sister aswell as experience in mentoring younger students through school and youth programmes. I enjoy arts and crafts, reading, outdoor activities and gentle games which has helped me to bond well with children. I understand how important it is for a parent(s) to feel comfortable and confident when leaving their child in someone else's care, so I always prioritise safety and communication in order to provide a stable, healthy and happy environment for both child and parent.
I’m also comfortable helping with children’s meals, tidying up after activities, and making sure children feel comfortable and cared for throughout the day.
I’d love the opportunity to become someone you can trust for quality childcare!

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is China Clennon and I'm an 19 year old college student currently taking all classes online. I've always had a genuine love for working with children because it brings me so much joy to watch them learn, grow, and be themselves. I have over four years of experience caring for children of different ages. I worked at a daycare, where I learned how to manage multiple children at once, create fun and safe activities, and support children's daily routines. In addition to daycare work, I've also nannied for two families, which helped me build strong one on one connections with kids and earn the trust of families. I'm responsible, patient, and attentive, and I always prioritize children's safety and comfort. I'm also skilled in cooking and can prepare simple, healthy meals and snacks. I don't mind helping with light cleaning and keeping play areas neat and organized. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, caring, and fun childcare.

A little bit about me
Hi! I'm an engineering student on leave until September looking to make a little money before I go back to school. I have lots of experience babysitting under a variety of circumstances, and I pride myself on being a safe but fun sitter. I love kids and I approach every job with compassion, patience, and excitement. Although I am not CPR certified I do hold multiple medical certifications, and my experience working in medical facilities has taught me exactly what to do during any medical emergency. I'm happy to connect you with parents I've worked for in the past, and please message me for any questions! P.S. that's my mom and I in the profile picture haha!

I love supporting children as they explore their interests, build confidence, and feel safe coming to me for guidance while also providing loving care for pets.
