A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Rubi. I’m a very outgoing, responsible, kind, fun person. My passion for working with children started when one of my friends mom offered me a job in her home daycare after I just had graduated high school. I end up loving working with children and being a role model to them. While working at the home daycare I decided to continue my education towards early childhood education. I strongly believe that early childhood is the base of life and we adults must teach children with patience, dedication and love about life. Working with kids for me has been amazing and a fun thing to do!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Natyre. Nae for short, I've been working with kids since I was 14 years old. I started working with kids in Middle school transitioning into high school. I started off working with infants and then furthermore up in age.

Caring for kids to me, is not just a job, but its a passion. Helping nurturing kids is not easy and sometime a helping hand is needed. And here's where I come in at.
I help with homework; I read to the kid(s) I assist with a little housework here and there, running small errands and or handling online grocery ordering/ pickup, and tidying up. Also, here for emotional support sometimes for the parents.

A little bit about me

Hi! My names Serenity, I’m 18 years old and I graduated highschool last year. I always dreamed of going to college for culinary but god had other plans for my and blessed me with my beautiful son who is about to be 5 months old. Alittle bit more about why I love cooking and baking is because of how much food brings people together! I love the fact that even if you don’t live in a certain country you still have the opportunity to experience one’s culture/ethnicity and traditions through the food they eat.As a mother I understand the importance of having full confidence and trust in someone when it comes to watching your child. I would love to believe that from an outsider perspective I’m a very clean, patient, honest, happy, loving, outgoing, trustworthy person who does very well under pressure and has great communication skills. That is why I believe I’m perfect for this job because I want to give parents the relief of knowing they left their little minis in good hands❤️
