A little bit about me
I love kids, I don’t have much experience in nannying per say but I am a mom of a 2 year old daughter and I also frequently watch after my 2 year old niece and 6 year old nephew at the same time so I’m great at multitasking. Have experience with newborns. Am looking for a job that has availability for me to bring my daughter along with. I am an only parent working hard to take care of my daughter.
I will work very hard, I’m a very good cook, I clean, I’m very good at sticking to schedules, and I love seeing kiddos happy.

A little bit about me
Hi, I'm Annika! I am currently in nursing school while working full time as a nanny and house manager for 4 children under 5 years old. The family I nanny for is moving to Arizona near the end of summer so I am slowly starting my search for a new job but would most likely need to move to something slightly more part time as I will be starting clinicals in September. I am unsure what my schedule will look like quite yet, but should know more later this summer. With that being said, I would need a family that is somewhat flexible on days/hours most likely. I have worked as a caregiver in a nursing home and then as a nanny for about 3 years now for kids ranging from newborn-12 years old. I am reliable, hardworking, caring, and fun! I would love to hear more about your family and what exactly you are looking for!

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Zelmira!
I'm passionate about gentle, respectful childcare. I feel that one of the most important aspects of care-taking is making sure children feel seen, safe, and supported as they learn and grow. I understand that compassion and connection is so important. I am currently pursuing nursing at PCC, (planning to eventually become a midwife!) so I love working with families! My work in childcare thus far has taught me to be receptive to specific children's needs, and that communication and adaptivity is so important. My experience as a preschool teacher/nanny has taught me the essentials of developmentally-appropriate activities, as well as the importance nurturing connection.
Thank you for your consideration!
