A little bit about me
I am a former Reggio preschool educator looking for a part-time caregiver role in Indy.
I am CPR and First Aid certified, with a clean driving record for 20 years. I have primarily taught ages 1. 5 to 4 but am very comfortable with infants. I love baby snuggles! I utilize some ASL with infants.
My own kids are 10 and 13. I use conscious discipline and positive talk daily with my students and children. I follow RIE philosophy & believe children should be treated with great respect from birth with gentle but firm guidance.
I love messy play, sensory experiences, and getting kids of all ages outside! I was a forest school teacher for several years, and like to explore and play outdoors.
I am comfortable taking children out to parks, creek stomping, library or museum trips, and curating screen-free activities. I can provide light meal prep and housework as well, and am comfortable with pets.
Getting to know your child and your family would be an honor and a pleasure!

hi there! My name is Bailey and I am 24 years old. I graduated from Indiana University with a bachelors degree in elementary education in 2021. Currently I am an interventionist at an elementary school. I hope those who struggle in the general Ed classroom to receive the extra support that they need to be successful. I am looking for a part-time summer position. I have nannying for families in the past and in high school I worked at a children’s toy store. I am also offering tutoring services for elementary age students. My specialties includes helping struggling readers and math. If you think I would be a great fit for your family, I would love to talk more!

A little bit about me
My name is Blaze! I love what I do and know that I am very good at it. I believe in using the arts and music and creativity to help children of all ages learn and connect with themselves. The results I have noticed with this method are outstanding. My greatest joy in life is watching the children I work with grow and become the amazing minds that will impact our future generations! I have expierence working in daycares with 15 children at once, or working with 2 to 4 children one on one in a home. I am more interested in working as a nanny or babysitter because I truly believe the attention children are able to recieve in that type of environment makes so much more possible. I very much look forward to speaking with you and finding out if we could be a good fit!
Have a very happy day.
