A little bit about me
I graduated with a degree in Special Education from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I have been nannying since I was 11, and I have been a Special Education Teacher and Case Manager since 2011. I am one of five children, and I have four nieces and nephews. I love kids, and I love preparing fun activities for us to do!
I think it takes a special person to be a successful teacher or nanny. Ever since a very young age, I had a dream of becoming a teacher. As I grew older and began to reach certain milestones in my educational career, those dreams became attainable. As a child, I grew up attending amazing schools with prestigious teachers and when times were hard I always had someone to turn to with great trust. Miami University in Oxford, Ohio transformed my dreams into a reality. Teaching has given me the opportunity to give students the chance to succeed, no matter the circumstances. I have a desire to give children the support they need to advance in their studies, and most importantly, I want to help provide the students with what they deserve most of all: a safe haven to obtain an equal education.

A little bit about me
My name is Blessing Olawole, and I am a nursing student with a passion for caring for others. I especially enjoy spending time with children and hearing their little opinions because they are often honest, creative, and full of curiosity. Being around kids brings me joy, and I appreciate the way they see the world with such innocence and excitement.
I love making a positive impact in the lives of children by encouraging them, listening to them, and helping them feel valued and supported. Whether it’s through conversations, activities, or simply being present, I enjoy creating a safe and positive environment where kids can grow, learn, and express themselves. My goal is to continue using my caring nature and nursing background to support and uplift others, especially children, in meaningful ways.
