A little bit about me

My name is Machaela! I’m a mom to one girl and two bonus kids! I have 10+ years experience in childcare, from babysitting to nanny positions! As well as worked in a daycare for 2 years with ages 12weeks-12 years! I am cpr certified with reliable transportation and hoping to become a firefighter in the future but until then I am looking to stick to what I know and love! That’s helping families and watching kids grow into amazing little people! My first ever nanny family I worked with I was 18 and the children were 5 and 11. They’re now going on 13 and 19 and I’ve been happy to watch them grow! I want to find another family I can do the same for! I’m currently full time over night delivery driver for insomnia cookies and miss having a career where I’m more needed! I’m open to overnight care since I already am used to the late hours and best time for me to have care for my kids, but also am available days as they’re in school!

A little bit about me

Hello, I am Gracie, a nurturing, open minded, fun-loving, old soul who loves to care for others. I am passionate about teaching those around me as well as learning new information for myself. One of my favorite things to do is explore, whether I am spending time outdoors, or taking in a new culture while traveling abroad.

I am animal friendly as I have pets of my own, so no need to worry about your “fluffy baby”.

I am currently not CPR trained but looking to get the certification very soon.

I am looking forward to helping you care for your little ones!

A little bit about me

I was previously a Behavior Technician for special needs children around the ages of 2 years old up to 11. I miss the connection and authentic fun I would have working around kids, I am actually CPR certified through Ivy Tech Community College back in my early Nursing practice for 2020. I’ve always worked around children my entire life as well with a large family. I tend to have many creative ways in getting children to have a good time but a long nights rest for an easy going morning.
