The most important part about being a nanny...
For me, the most important part of being a nanny is helping children feel safe, happy, and cared for. I love getting to know each child, supporting them as they explore, learn, and grow, and being a positive presence in their day-to-day life.
I also enjoy making everyday moments fun and engaging, whether it’s playing games, doing crafts, reading together, or just spending time outside. Seeing children feel confident, loved, and supported is what makes this work so rewarding for me.

Hi! I am a 20 year old first time mommy. My baby girl, Evangeline was born January 16, 2026. I am pet friendly. I am a Christian but I am loved by many religious and non religious. I have baby sat almost my entire life for extra money for school. I love kids so much that I have my baby. I need a job that allows me to bring my baby to work. I currently baby sit 2 girls ages 3 and 1 (with my baby), but that is only on Fridays or occasional weekends of vacation. I want a stable job that allows me to build a future for my baby. She deserves the best. I drive, have my own license, and it has insurance. I havent gotten in a car accident, however some high schooler hit my car while being parked. He had no insurance. Anyways. I can help cook for the little ones, drive them anywhere, and I even teach piano(thats an extra cost). Please call me and leave a text [phone number hidden]
