A little bit about me

I’m Meghan! I am from Athens but have lived everywhere. I have 10 nieces and nephews who I have been around for & cared for so I’m familiar and comfortable with caring for children of most ages. I don’t have children of my own but I have 5 dogs. 4 girls and a boy & 2 godbabies. I got CPR certified in high school but I am not currently CPR certified but I am willing to get certified. Due to me not being certified I’m only asking $15/hr rather than $17/hr. I do know how to cook for children & know all the steps for emergencies. I have a new, reliable car as well. If you have any more questions, feel free to message me! Thank you for your time. Have a blessed day!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kyra, and I’m a responsible, caring, and energetic high school student who loves working with children. I have paid experience caring for kids through my role at my church’s KidCare program, where I supervised children, led fun activities, and helped create a safe, positive, and engaging environment. I’m patient, dependable, and enjoy keeping kids active and entertained through games, crafts, outdoor play, reading, and helping with homework. I believe in creating a space where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged while having fun.
I’m CPR and First Aid certified, so safety is always my top priority. I’m calm under pressure, reliable, and communicate well with both children and parents. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care that gives families peace of mind while ensuring their children are happy, safe, and well cared for. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone they can count on!

A little bit about me

I am studying to be a communications major online. I love kids and have been working with them in some capacity for three years. Two years ago I became a regular nanny for a boy who was two at the time and is now almost five. I have the most experience with children from ages 2-5. I also worked at an after school center for a few months and I got experience with older children there.
