A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Ava, and I have a genuine passion for working with children. I have about a year of professional nanny experience, along with several years of babysitting for family friends and helping care for my older sister’s four children, including infants and young kids. Through those experiences, I’ve become confident with diaper changes, bottle feeding, nap routines, playtime, and creating a safe, loving environment where children can thrive.

I’m dependable, patient, and energetic, and I love planning fun, engaging activities while making sure children feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, and keeping daily routines running smoothly. My goal is always to build a trusting relationship with both parents and children and provide dependable, compassionate care that families can count on.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I’ve spent several years caring for children of different ages through both professional nannying and babysitting. In addition to a year of nanny experience, I’ve regularly cared for my older sister’s four children since they were infants, as well as the children of family friends. My responsibilities have included bottle feeding, diaper changes, preparing meals and snacks, putting children down for naps, helping with bedtime routines, engaging in educational and creative activities, and keeping them safe and entertained throughout the day. These experiences have helped me become patient, dependable, organized, and comfortable caring for children while creating a fun, nurturing, and structured environment.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love keeping kids active, engaged, and having fun! Some of my favorite activities include arts and crafts, reading books, playing outside, going on walks, building forts, baking simple treats together, playing board games and puzzles, doing age-appropriate sensory activities, and coming up with fun learning games. I also enjoy taking kids to parks, libraries, the zoo, museums, or other local activities with parents’ permission. My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children can learn, explore, and enjoy their day.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I believe the most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and trusting environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. Building a strong relationship with both the children and their parents is so important. I strive to be someone families can rely on while encouraging children’s growth, independence, and confidence through patience, kindness, and consistency. Knowing that I’m making a positive impact on a child’s life is the most rewarding part of being a nanny.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience caring for children with different needs and understand that every child is unique. I focus on being patient, adaptable, and creating a safe, supportive environment where children feel comfortable and understood. I work closely with parents to follow routines, accommodate individual needs, and provide consistent, compassionate care while encouraging each child’s independence and confidence.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite nanny moments was watching a child accomplish something they had been working so hard on and seeing how proud they were of themselves. Being able to encourage them, celebrate the little milestones, and watch their confidence grow is one of the most rewarding parts of being a nanny. I love building strong relationships with the kids I care for and creating fun memories they’ll look back on with a smile.
