A little bit about me

Hello I’m Jazmin. My friends call me Jaz, either or doesn’t really matter to me. I’m Hispanic and born and raised here in North Carolina all my life. I’m currently trying to go to school to become a licensed esthetician and build my own business. I am currently working as a waitress at a restaurant here in my town. I enjoy working with people and meeting new people in my community. I like play soccer, help at my church and work with our youth group. I’m 19 years of age and have a lot of experience with kids. Many family members and friends trust me very much to take care of their children. I love kids and hopefully in the near future I am excited for a prosperous business and a very nice family. I grew up in a very nice home and although we never had much I had amazing parents that showed me the best values of life and the importance of family. I speak both Spanish and English. Spanish is my first language but I am also equally fluent in English.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Josie, and I would be thrilled to care for your children. I was a nanny in Arizona for about four years and absolutely loved every minute of it.

I also enjoy organizing and keeping things clean. I actually find it therapeutic! I love helping families simplify their day-to-day life and create peaceful, functional spaces that support everyone's well-being. I also have a deep love for health and wellness, and I enjoy incorporating creativity, play, and mindfulness into daily routines. Whether it's doing a fun craft, exploring the outdoors, or making a healthy snack together, I'm all about creating joyful, nurturing moments.

A little bit about me

Hello Moms!
I am a 19 year old college student with formal childcare experience. I started working at my neighbor's dayhome in Canada at the age of 14. Since then I have had several babysitting jobs and I have worked in a Child mindind center at our local gym for the past three years. I am also an ice skate coach during the summer months for kids' camps. I have always loved working with children which is why I have great experience in this area. I am very active and enjoy ice skating, swimming, jogging, weight training, card games and crafts. I also enjoy cooking healthy meals and prefer to work with a family that prefers to serve healthy organic fresh food vs processed food when possible. I can also help with computer trouble shooting, homework and maintaining a happy positive energy around the home.
