A little bit about me

My name is Kajonia Carter, I am 24 years, currently in cosmetology school. I lived in New Orleans my whole life, I worked at a daycare for few years and loved it ! Also, worked at nursing homes and they were just like babies in my eyes, I loved every bit of feeding them, clothing them, and whatever else they needed. I’m a great cook, don’t mind cooking for the family, love going places like the park, skating, movies, etc. Great personality, energetic, fun, and just filled with a-whole lot of love.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Maria! I am a 30 yr old graduate student at Tulane. I am studying public health and child development. I have over 8 years of babysitting/child care experience. I have taken care of infants from 1-month-old to early teens (13-15). My previous employment was at a special needs school; I was a long-term sub teacher. I was a one-on-one with a teenager with severe disabilities. I performed bathroom duties, food preparation, feeding, and teaching. That job changed my life, and I am now dedicating my life's work to serve and advocate for those with disabilities.

I love kids, I think they teach us a lot and remind us to stay young at heart! Even with the occasional "tantrum", I am very sympathetic because, hey, us adults have them too! ;-D

If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me! I look forward to hearing from you and hopefully meeting your wonderful family!

Best,

Maria.

Hi, My name is Jah’nya I am 17 years old and an upcoming senior. I’ve been caring for children since I was 10, all paid jobs.

I am not a pet person unfortunately, and I do have a fear of dogs.
