A little bit about me

I'm currently a college student living with roommates. I love kids I think they are adorable and I'm good at handling their energy. I am not allergic to any animals, I myself live with a cat and a dog and love them very much. I love to do fun activities with kids such as arts and crafts and helping with homework. I can also do minor cooking and cleaning if at all required. I do have a car for any needed transportation! I look forward to meeting you guys! :)

A little bit about me

My name is Cilena Cruz. I have 20 plus years of experience caring for children from infancy to toddler age. I have a B.S. in Psychology and took children related courses. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I am available all day or evening or overnight if needed. I understand the different milestones that children need to reach at a certain age and will help them do it. I enjoy reading to the children as well as prepare nutritious meals, hands on activities as well as outdoors. I'm great at housekeeping and will always have an open communication with the parents as well as sharing progress through phone calls or pictures if the parents feel comfortable with this. I believe that it takes a village to raise a child let me be part of your village. I am seriously adhering to all Covid-19 CDC protocols.

A little bit about me

Previously an au pair/live in for 4 years, born and raised in London (though, you're going to have to forgive me as my accent is fading a little). I have been working with kids since I was a teenager in an array of settings from schools to nannying. I have a Masters Degree in child psychology, and have had childcare training over the years (CPR etc) more times than I can count. I am also happy to provide references.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Kathryn and I live in a cozy studio in the Bankers Hill area with my boyfriend and our cat Bubbles. I graduated from Meredith College with a Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communication and I also have an Associates in AS Culinary Arts from Johnson and Wales University. I started nannying three years ago and fell in love with it! I enjoy being creative, getting to play pretend, and anything outdoors. I have the most experience with toddlers and am well versed in preparing meals, bath time, bed time, diaper changes, and after school activities/swim lessons. My hobbies include cooking/baking, pottery, swimming, learning Italian, and spending quality time with family when I can. I consider myself a very organized and dependable person who likes structure but also has a sense of humor. I have my own vehicle and can provide references. I look forward to meeting you!
