A little bit about me

Professional nanny with extensive experience working with newborns, toddlers and children of different ages.
I am a loving, caring, responsible and experienced nanny who finds true joy in working with children. I create a nurturing and supportive environment where kids feel loved, safe, valued, and inspired to grow. I enjoy the process of helping children discover and learn. Children are naturally drawn to my warmth, enthusiasm and positive energy, and I take pride in building meaningful connections with every family I work with. I have a lifetime of experience supporting children’s developmental and emotional needs and growth from newborns until children reach the age to go full time to school.

A little bit about me

I haven't formally worked with kids in a professional sense, but have often babysat my young family members and love being around kids, as well as volunteering to be a summer camp tutor for elementary age kids. I like to make sure their day is fun and productive, and I typically avoid a lot of screen usage and am skilled at finding fun but creative ways to keep kids active but happy, especially if it involves being outdoors.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Faith and I’ve always loved being around kids. I grew up as the youngest of six in a big, busy household, and even though I was the baby of the family, I was always the one volunteering to help with younger cousins or in the church nursery. I was homeschooled, which gave me the flexibility to gain a lot of hands-on experience with kids from an early age. Babysitting has been a big part of my life ever since I was old enough, and I truly enjoy connecting with children, keeping them safe, and making sure they’re having fun. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely love what I do.

A little bit about me

I come from a big family so I love to be surrounded by people and I love working with kids! I’m a freshman at Taylor University and I love reading, writing, hanging out with friends and being outside. I did multiple years of volunteer work in my church’s nursery and did free babysitting for families in my church and family friends. Being a mother is my deepest desire so helping those who don’t have the ability to watch their children full time makes me happy!
