A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Madilyn! I’m an outgoing, compassionate, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I love creating a fun, safe, and positive environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. Whether it’s helping with homework, doing crafts, playing outside, or keeping children entertained, I enjoy building strong connections with the families I work with.

I have reliable transportation and a clean driving record, so I’m dependable with schedules, school pickups, and activities. I understand how important trust and communication are when caring for children, and I always prioritize safety, patience, and responsibility.

In my free time, I enjoy staying active and spending time with family and friends. My goal as a nanny is to be a positive and trustworthy presence while helping make life easier for parents and fun for kids!

Hi! My name is Molly! I have grown up around kids my whole life. My mom did daycare from when I was born until I was about 14. After she stopped, I started babysitting for some of the families that she no longer took care of. I love swimming, walks, and playing games! I love animals, especially cats. I am very flexible and reliable. I am not currently CPR certified, but am willing to get my certification if necessary. I am also a student at MSU and can help with homework!
