A little bit about me

Hello! :) My names Ava and I’m super passionate about working with kids! I have a psych degree & will eventually work in the school system. For now I'm looking to care for 1-3 children full time, shorter term as I will start working towards my career next year. I have 2 years experience nannying 2 children ages 6mo-5yrs old. I’m really fun & imaginative so your kids will never be bored! I will also provide light housework/meal prep if needed. I love being outdoors, so it’d be ideal if I was allowed to bring the kids to the park/playground etc. but a yard would also work :) I also love doing arts and crafts!

A little bit about me

Hey my name’s Declan! I’m a responsible and caring person with camp counselor experience! I think children deserve to be heard, and their needs met. I am a relaxed stabilizing presence for my campers, and am good at turning any situation into a positive experience. I’ve helped relatives with younger children ages 1-3 as well. I am fully vaccinated and boosted!

To shine some light on me personally I have musical training in singing, and am a hair school graduate. Additionally I’m pretty nerdy, I’ve been playing dungeons and dragons since 7th grade. If that sounds like someone you can be friendly with then great!

Comfortable with all kinds of families, I am LGBT and comfortable with neurodivergence.

Lastly I have, in fact, taught 7 six year-olds simultaneously how to carve wooden stakes with real knives. Never had a single injury ; )
