A little bit about me
Hello! I am a Brazilian business student living in the US since January. I am calm, organized, and dedicated and I love to play and take care of children. Unfortunately, I haven't had any experiences as a nanny because of my studies in Brazil, but it would be amazing for me to have new experiences, taking care and giving full support to children. The family that chooses me will have a completely dedicated and loyal nanny, as well as a great caretaker for their children.

Hi! My name is Natalie Kreusch. I am currently a student at Bucknell University studying Early Childhood Education. I am graduating in May of 2022. I have completing student teaching and worked with children of a variety of ages. I have some Montessori training and believe strongly in the importance of respecting a Childs thoughts, ideas and needs.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Leila and I'm currently a college student at Berklee College of Music. I worked on and off babysitting jobs in high school, as well as helped out with daycare! I would love to move to a part time nanny position and help out a family a few times a week. I'm great with kids, responsible, mature, and willing to help out with any house chores as well or schoolwork that the kids need help on. I sing and play piano, so if music is something your kids enjoy, I'd love to do that with them as well! I love working on arts and crafts too, any games, and can cook and prepare food. If you have any questions or wanna know any more about me, please feel free to call or text, or message me here!

A little bit about me
Hi! I’m a 2020 Suffolk University Grad with a BS in Public Relations. I’ve taken care of children from a young age (lot of younger cousins!) During college I babysat for a family for two years where I cared for two boys (ages 4 and 7 when I started.) The older boy had type 1 diabetes so I have experience working with whatever extra needs your child may have. I am currently a nanny for a family with 3 children who are 5,3, and 20 months. Seeking full time employment for the fall or possibly late August. I’m looking forward to connecting with your family!
