Hi everyone! My name is Libby, and I’m a 21 year old senior nursing major at USC. I have eight years of experience nannying and babysitting for kids of all ages, from infants to middle schoolers.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sadieya (Suh-DIE-yuh), but everyone calls me Sadie. I’m a full-time college student USC. I’m a music major, planning to become a voice teacher and teach young children how to sing. I come from a big family so I grew up babysitting. I love children; they’re my most treasured passion. I have several younger cousins whom I thoroughly enjoy taking care of. Because of how many children I’ve babysat previously, I learned the importance of being fully engaged with children when you’re caring for them, which is exactly what I promise to be. I’m also incredibly conscious and passionate about nutrition, and I’m aware that each child will have their own necessities in the nutrition aspect. Thank you!
