A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Jamica, I'm 25 years old and I was born & raised in Boston. I recently returned from a year abroad and I'm looking for full time work during the daytime hours. However, I am available by request to babysit overnights and weekends. Being blessed with an enormous family helped me develop my caregiving skills from a very young age. I was always willing to babysit my siblings and cousins because it's didn't even seem like a job/chore. Children bring so much joy and excitement to your day, it's impossible to see them as such! Along with babysitting for members of my family, I worked as a nanny for a family in Brookline, MA for three years as I finished up my B.A. in Psychology. I have also worked for Catholic Charities mentoring elementary school children, so I have an idea of how to engage young children in fun & educational activities. I believe my vibrant personality and nurturing demeanor will make me a great candidate for the right family.

A little bit about me

My name is Mary Gattis and I’m an East TN native. I was born in Chattanooga but have hopped around my entire life and am finally back! I love kids of all ages, have great experience (10+ years), am CPR certified, and available all days and times! I’ve recently been caring for a family of 3 kids for the summer, but they are starting school soon and won’t need me as much. 😢

I can send any references you may need as well as wonderful referrals from my many past families.

A little bit about me

I am a responsible and energetic childcare provider with several years of experience working with children in both nanny and daycare settings. I have spent the past three summers working as a nanny and previously worked at a daycare for four years, where I developed strong skills in supervising children, creating engaging activities, and maintaining a safe and positive environment.

I am currently a college student in Florida but spend my summers in New York City, where my mom lives, and I am looking for a summer nanny position. In addition to my childcare background, I worked as a lifeguard and was a Division I athlete, which has helped me develop strong leadership, responsibility, and safety awareness. I enjoy staying active with kids, planning fun activities, and creating a supportive environment where children feel safe and encouraged.

I am dependable, organized, and passionate about working with families to help children grow, learn, and have fun.
