A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Annalea! I have 3 years of professional nanny experience and over 8 years of babysitting experience, primarily caring for infants and toddlers. I'm CPR, First Aid, and SIDS certified, have reliable transportation, and am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive.

As the second oldest of seven siblings, caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. I love planning age-appropriate activities, reading books, spending time outdoors, and helping little ones reach new milestones. My goal is to become a trusted, dependable support for families while providing children with loving, attentive care.

Outside of childcare, I enjoy spending time at the beach, exploring local coffee shops, serving at my church, and making the most of time with family and friends. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and see if we'd be a great fit!
