A little bit about me
Greetings! My name is Leticia and I have worked with kids for most of my adult life. I started working in childcare in 2011 as an au pair in France where I cared for 3 very lively boys. Over the years I have continued to babysit for friends and family. Currently, I teach English online to adorable Chinese kids. I speak English and French fluently. My interests include reading, writing, and art and I am a (hopeful) future graduate student at the UofU. I look forward to meeting your family!

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Boston, I'm 19 years old and absolutely love working with kids. I have about three years of paid babysitting experience as well as experience with children of all ages. I am also a special needs unified partner and peer tutor. I am more than happy to do light house keeping, errands, cooking, laundry, etc. I love cats and dogs so pets are no problem! I am looking to babysit ideally 1-3 kids, ages anywhere from infant-tween- whatever is needed! I enjoy being outdoors and finding creative ways to entertain. I also love crafts and making learning fun for kids. I taught English to children in a foreign country- so lots of experience with littles! I am more than happy to provide contact information from past employers.

A little bit about me
Hi parents! My name is Hannah. I’m 21 years old and currently going into my senior year at Westminster University, where I study Philosophy and minor in Dance. I’m free for my summer and looking for nannying and babysitting opportunities that could go into the schoolyear. I have been babysitting for most of my life and spent 2–3 years working in my high school’s preschool program, where I helped young children learn, play, and grow. I also have nearly five years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant, which requires patience, communication, and compassionate caregiving. I grew up with a mom who taught special education, which helped shape my passion for creating supportive and inclusive environments for children. I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, being active, reading, and encouraging creativity. I want to create a safe, fun environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I’m dependable, caring, energetic, and excited to get to know your family!

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Valerie. I am a very friendly person. I love to sing and I swim competitively. I have 2 nieces and 2 nephews and I love little kids. I've done over 300 hours of volunteer babysitting in the past. I'm the youngest of 5 kids in my family and I'm graduating in May 2021. I am very responsible and have the experience and certifications necessary to take care of your kids. While I'm watching kids, I try to avoid tv and electronics. We play a lot of imaginary games, dance, cook, and color. I also have experience with special needs children. I've done over 3 years of peer tutoring and my mom was a school nurse for 10 years and taught me some important things. I also did very well in school and I've tutored before so I can help with any homework. I'm so excited to meet you! :)

A little bit about me
My name is Lara and I am 28 years old. I have over six years of child care experience. I have worked with children aged four months to 16 years old. I have worked with children in various settings and enjoy providing a safe environment where they can learn and grow. For five years I worked with children with autism and gained the skills and knowledge to best assist children in developing and reaching milestones. For the past two years I've been a full time nanny and love working with families. I have experience teaching children language development, potty training, motor skills, social skills, and many other important life skills. I love working with children and believe my diverse experience and creativity allows me to adapt to any family. I love encouraging children to use their imagination and play outside. In my free time I love hiking and hanging out with my new puppy. I am very outgoing and love embracing new adventures!

A little bit about me
I grew up in a big family, (I have 20+ younger cousins) so l've been watching kids since I was a child myself.
But I didn't start professionally babysitting until I was 14. Since then I've volunteered with daycares for children with Down syndrome and autism, which taught me how to adapt to a child's specific needs.
Outside of Nannying I am a part time student at SLCC. I take all online classes so my schedule is completely flexible. One class in particular that l'm taking is Nutrition, which has taught me how to make healthy meals. I spend most of my time outside, skiing, hiking, and camping. When it's allowed I love to take children out on activities, it's good to get them moving (plus it tires them out!).

A little bit about me
I come from a very family oriented background and grew up with three younger sisters, so being around kids has always been a big part of my life. Right now I’m working toward becoming a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) because I’m passionate about supporting kids in positive ways and helping them feel safe, confident, and encouraged to be themselves.
I love keeping kids engaged through things like reading, imaginative play, and spending time outdoors. Outside of work, I enjoy camping, exploring nature, and taking care of my plants. I also love learning new things! I code as a hobby, enjoy traveling, and have a growing interest in language studies (especially French and Russian).
I’m originally from Minnesota, very and a big animal lover so pets are always a bonus!

A little bit about me
Hello, Families! My name is Madison i’m 25. I simply love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage of their young lives. My strengths as a nanny are that I am very responsible, reliable and caring person. I am passionate about furthering my time in the Nanny field so that I can continue doing what I love and broadening my experiences. I have experience in many areas of caring. I have 4 children of my own and 1 Step, so I am excellent with children and babies and always treat them like they are my own. I have a natural way with children and they always enjoy me as much as I enjoy them. I have also been a housekeeper for several families who have loved my work (some still ask if I'll come back).

Nanny Rebecca

Plus, the kiddos love her. Any family would be lucky to have her - she is worth every penny."
