A little bit about me

I’ve been nannying for about 8 years and have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Being a nanny has taught me how to be patient, responsible, and adaptable, because every child has a different personality and different needs. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, preparing meals, assisting with homework, planning fun and educational activities, and creating a safe, positive environment where kids feel comfortable and supported.

What I love most about nannying is building genuine relationships with the families I work with. I always try to be someone parents can rely on and someone their children feel safe with. I’m dependable, caring, and enjoy helping children learn, grow, and have fun while giving parents peace of mind.

My name is Tiranke Diakite, born and raised in the Bronx. I am a college student who attends SUNY Geneseo. I have 4 sisters making me the oldest out of them all. I currently have a toddler sister who is 2 years old in the house which I love taking care of due to the fact that I love kids with my heart and wish to have some of my own when I get older. I also have experience with taking care of kids because the job I use to have. Read Alliance is a student organization that was put into place for people to help the youth after school hours with their homework. I made sure that they were rewarded when they did a good job and always made positive comments about the things that they did. I’m really looking to take care of someone kid(s) without parents having to worry about not making it to work or etc. My job is to take care of your kids while you're gone.
