A little bit about me
Funny and a great energy to be around. I always try to be positive and my main goal is to have parents be comfortable with my watching their kid because I know being a male could be a little concerning for parents. I also want the child I am taking care of to approve of me as well because they means just as much to me as the parents.

A little bit about me
Hi my name is Fallon and I am nineteen years old. I have not been an official nanny but babysat a lot and taken care of my brother and always loved it. I am an art student and I am taking some time off from school right now. I have loved to do art project with the kids I taken care of before. I have a very flexible schedule, I can do weekdays and weekends. I’m willing to do any housekeeping duties needed and I really enjoy cooking. I have mostly worked in restaurants and it gave me a lot confidence in communication and professionalism in a close knit community that a restaurant staff is. Witch I believe will help a lot when working for a family.

A little bit about me
Hi, I'm Allie! I have plenty of childcare experience from all ages--infants to 10-12 year olds. With years of volunteer preschool teaching experience, a CTE certification from my high school after completing 4 semesters of courses in Early Childhood Education and Teaching, and being my neighborhood's favorite babysitter since my early teen years, I have strong foundations and a true passion for childcare. My style is engaging, educational, and creative--teaching important life skills, emotional intelligence, and facilitating developmental milestones while having fun along the way. I have a blast with creative projects, reading books, outdoor activities, and imaginative play.
