A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Sage, a dependable, patient, and nurturing childcare provider with three years of hands-on experience caring for young children across multiple settings.

I taught Pre-K for one year, focusing on early learning, routines, and social-emotional development. I also spent one year in daycare infant care, where I supported feeding schedules, naps, diapering, and developmental milestones. In addition, I provided 6 months of in-home infant care, offering personalized, one-on-one attention and consistent routines tailored to a family’s needs.

I’m big on creating a calm, engaging environment where kids feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves. I value structure, gentle guidance, and clear communication with parents, and I take trust and safety very seriously.

I’m comfortable with pets (especially dogs 🐶) and aim to support families in a way that truly makes daily life easier while keeping children happy, cared for, and thriving.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Kynlee Barbier, and I’m 19 years old.
I’ve had a strong passion for childcare from a young age, especially since I’ve helped care for my two younger brothers, who are now 4 and 5. That hands-on experience, along with my professional background, has really shaped my skills and patience when working with children of all ages.

I’ve also worked in childcare settings and have experience supporting children with special needs, both through church involvement and professionally as a Registered Line Technician. These experiences have taught me how to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment while being attentive to each child’s unique needs.

I would love the opportunity to connect with you and see if I’d be a good fit for your family. Thank you so much for your time and consideration!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Sage Robinson. I have been working with children since my senior year of high school, and my passion for working with children has continued to grow throughout my college experience. I am currently a junior at Southern University, where I am pursuing my education through the online program. Because I attend school online, I may occasionally be required to participate in Zoom meetings or other virtual activities.
I truly enjoy working with children and gaining experience in early childhood education. I currently work at a childcare center, where I teach and care for two-year-old children. Through this experience, I have developed a greater appreciation for creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where young children can learn and grow.
