A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Adi, and I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic person who loves working with kids. I recently graduated from high school and am taking a gap year to gain real-world experience while doing something meaningful. I’ve always enjoyed spending time with children—whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or just being a positive role model.
I have experience caring for kids of various ages through babysitting, summer camps, and helping out with younger siblings and family friends. I’m comfortable handling routines like meals, naps, playtime, and school pick-ups, and I always try to create a safe, fun, and respectful environment.
I’m very flexible, open to a live-in position, and happy to help out with light housework or pet care if needed. I’d love the chance to get to know your family and support your children as they grow!

Hello! My name is Maia and I am currently 23 years old. Nannying and childcare has been the job I have done and enjoyed the most and am hoping to get back into it! Because I worked as not only a nanny but a teachers assistant at a preschool, I am experienced in doing meal prep, tutoring and making art projects for children at different ages and developmental stages. I would love to chat more if there's any additional information needed and also have references if they're wanted.

Nanny Andrea
"We have been lucky enough to have Andrea nanny our one and sometimes two boys. She’s truly a part of the family. She’s always on time, entertaining the boys, and even cleans when the boys are napping. They love her so much they cry when she leaves! Our boys enjoy being outdoors most of the day and require A LOT of energy. I never worry about their safety or comfort. I 10/10 recommend her."

Nanny Silvana
"Silvana was a very nurturing nanny. She had the difficult task of being the first nanny to care for my 6 month old son. She knew what to do and helped my son quickly overcome the separation anxiety. She brought him toys and played the flute for him to introduce him to new things. I am very grateful for the care she provided."
