A little bit about me

I have nannied/ raised new born twins on up until they were ready for school. I am a currently nanny for twins, yet I'm looking for more hours and would need a two weeks notice if hired. I am VERY active and LOVE the out doors! I have a large imagination and I'm very creative, so coming up with new fun activities daily comes easy to me, such as arts and crafts, games, new adventures and play dates. I adore reading to children and making them laugh. Cooking has always been a passion of mine, I am a certified Raw foods Chef and can make meals according to your schedule an needs. I find house work to be relaxing and have no problem keeping the house neat and tidy. I absolutely love children, they are such blessings and full of joy! I have nannied and raised multiple new borns until they are old enough for school.

Thank you! Hope to hear from you soon!

A little bit about me

I am currently a nanny for Northlight nannies. My family had a family emergency and they don’t need me anymore! Northlight doesn’t have a family for me so I am branching off and trying to get started again! I have a 10 yo nephew, 5 yo nephew, 22 month niece and another niece coming in February! I have lived with all 3 of these children as infants. I’ve had a lot of experience with infants and toddlers and would love to help whoever needs help!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Amariah, and I'm an 18-year-old virtual high school senior graduating this December. I have over four years of babysitting experience, caring for kids, toddlers, and babies (6 months to 12 months). Inspired by my mom, who has been in childcare for 25 years, I've developed a genuine passion for nurturing and supporting children. My sister, Lenda'sia, will be joining me in babysitting. We are both virtual high school students, and she is responsible, trustworthy, and shares my dedication to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment for your little ones. Although we both have jobs, we are looking for a side job to continue doing what we love. Trustworthy and dependable, we look forward to the opportunity to care for your children.
