A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Lizeka, and I am 21 years old. I am a former South African in Florida with a passion for working with children. Since 2021, I have cared for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Back home, I babysat during school holidays, helped with homework, and organized fun activities.

During year, I cared for five children aged 13, 9, 7, 4, and 5 months. This experience taught me how to multitask, stay organized, work under pressure, and maintain routines while meeting each child's individual needs.

I am patient, responsible, energetic, and genuinely enjoy helping children learn and grow. My goal is to become a teacher in the future, so gaining childcare experience is very important to me. I believe I would be a great addition to your family and would provide a safe, caring, and positive environment for your children.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Safety of the children more than anything else, making sure you guard the kids as if they were your own. I think more than anything as much as parents say that they just need help with the kids, I’d say the main priority is for you as the nanny to make sure their children are safe whenever they are unable to be there to do that, because it’s just so important to protect especially the little ones to keep them away from danger especially with everything that’s happening around the world.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my 2yr olds that I’ve recently looked after is so cute, every time when I come in for work he shouts “Mama, Mama, Miss Lizeka here” and he loves having me play with him outside and go looking for lizards and whenever I have to knock off work he always say “where you going Miss Lizeka”, “are going to come play with me tomorrow” I just think it’s the most sweetest thing every especially cause these kids are so young, they are innocent and everything they say is so genuine and meaningful, it just brings me so much joy to actually make such and impact in a child’s life and just see them so happy
