A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Narissa Fawver, I am 21 years old from Nebraska! I am looking for a full time nanny gig!

I have worked at a daycare here in Nebraska for the past 4 years! I have worked with children ages 6 weeks-12 years old! For the past 11 months I have been working with toddler age children and I absolutely love it! I have also been babysitting occasionally since I was 15 years old!

I love to be outside, be active, do crafts and engage with children! My favorite thing is seeing them grow every single day! In my own time, I love to read, be with friends and family, workout and go to the beach!

A little bit about me

My name is Lane Hodge, I'm 22 years old and set to graduate from UNCW this fall. I have over 7 years of experience in childcare, working with children from newborns to teenagers. My background includes private nannying and babysitting, as well as working in schools, nurseries, various summer camps, YMCAs, and community centers. While I've worked with all age groups, I especially enjoy and have the most experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers.

Currently, I nanny for a wonderful family with a 2-year-old and a 3-month-old, and I've been with them for almost two years. I am looking for another family I can help out on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and on weekends, and for date nights.

If you're looking for someone reliable, experienced, and nurturing-I'd love to connect!

Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and energetic childcare provider with experience supporting children in safe, nurturing, and engaging environments. I love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun, and I bring a balance of patience, structure, and creativity to my work. I’m responsible, easy to communicate with, and happy to help with routines, playtime, meals, and anything else that helps the day go smoothly. I’ll be starting a PhD in School Psychology this fall, which reflects my strong interest in child development and supporting children’s growth. I’d love the opportunity to be a positive, supportive, and reliable person to help support your kiddo(s)!

Disclaimer: I’m available from May 13-June 26 as I’m moving to begin my doctoral program in July.
