A little bit about me

Hello Parents!

I have been working with children since the age of 16. As being a previous year round tennis coach for ages 5-15, it has taught me valuable skills that would perfectly add onto my nannying experiences! I have nannied previously for about 5 years with all different types of age groups with both girls and boys. All while adapting to differing family dynamics/needs.

I have formed special and close relationships with the families I was blessed to be apart of throughout these years. And will of course be of reference.

I am also studying to become a Dental Hygienist with a major in Biology at University of Pittsburgh!

I believe the younger generation need the proper support, love and care they need to fully flourish into their future. In which my creative, energetic, fun and loving personality would be the perfect fit for your family!!

I am also flexible with availability and open to negotiate pay according to circumstance.

I am excited to hear from you!

A little bit about me

Hi families! I hold an Early Education and Child Development Associate’s Degree, and am transitioning from the daycare classroom to a private nanny role. I specialize in working with children aged 4 to 11, helping them build the foundational academic, social, and emotional skills they need for a successful transition into kindergarten and/or the next grade they are entering.
Because I focus on creating a rich, structured, and active environment inside the home and the immediate neighborhood, I look for positions that do not require driving. We will spend our days doing interactive playtimes, reading, crafting, and taking active walks to local parks!
• Fully vetted with PA state clearances, FBI prints, and active CPR.
• Happily available for interviews and family meet-and-greets on Saturdays and Sundays!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Chanel. I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic nanny who truly enjoys working with children. I love creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where kids can feel comfortable being themselves. I enjoy playing games, dancing, singing, doing arts and crafts, and coming up with creative activities that keep children happy and engaged.

I am currently studying cosmetology, which has helped me develop patience, creativity, and great attention to detail. I can also help with simple children’s hairstyles like braids or keeping their hair neat if parents would like. I enjoy helping kids feel confident and cared for.

In the future, I hope to become an ultrasound technician because I enjoy helping people and working in caring environments. I am dependable, patient, and attentive, and families can trust that their children will be safe, supported, and well cared for while in my care.

I look forward to helping families and being a positive role model for their children.

A little bit about me

I have a few years of experience in childcare, one year of which was in a licensed childcare facility. During that time I was able to gain experience in every age group and eventually took over full-time as the Preschool Teacher. I am passionate about early childhood development and will be furthering my education come August. In the meantime, I would love to work directly with a family so my efforts are going somewhere they are needed.
