A little bit about me

Hi families! My name is Lesly Mejia and I am currently a stay at home wife. I just got out of the Navy after serving 4 years so I'm now on the hunt for a part time Nanny position. I am looking for 3-4 days a week, I have a very flexible schedule. I am also available on weekends as long as it doesn't interfere with prior commitments. I have worked with ages 4mo and up. I would prefer to use the families nanny car, but I have a reliable car if the families car is not available. I am asking for $22-25 an hour depending on the families number of children and workload.

A little about myself, I am very organized and detail oriented. I pride my self in my organization and motivation. I also love gardening and spending time with my family!

I am also willing to drive to sports practices, school pickup/drop off, homework help, studying, light meal prep, light household chores and household errands. CPR qualified through the Navy, clean driving record and
smoke free.🥰

A little bit about me

My name is Olivia Friend. I have over a year of experience working with kids in a daycare setting. Although I enjoyed working with preschoolers, the infant room was my absolute favorite to work in. Watching babies learn and grow in that first year of life is such a joy. I am looking for a family who would be willing to let me bring my 3 month old, Olive, to work with me. I have much experience looking after up to 5 infants at a time, managing their feeding, changing, tummy time, and nap schedule. Therefore, Olive would in no way hinder my ability to care for or prioritize your bundle of joy. During nap times, I can also accomplish anything you are looking for in terms of light housekeeping, meal prepping, laundry, etc. I look forward to hearing from you to see if I am the right fit for you and your family!
