A little bit about me

. Hello, my name is Indylee Hawkins-Purcell.

I graduated from A. Philip Randolph Career Academy where I studied EMT, gaining knowledge in safety, emergency response, and child care. I worked as a CNA supporting children with special needs and spent two years at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. I also have nannying experience caring for children from newborns to toddlers.

I am experienced with playtime, meals, routines, and creating a safe, loving environment. I value patience, reliability, and communication with parents. I keep families updated on their child’s day, including meals, naps, activities, and any important moments.

I am CPR certified, can provide background checks and documentation, and would love the opportunity to support your family with dependable and attentive care.

A little bit about me

I have been the designated babysitter to family and friends for as long as I can remember. My first professional job working with children was being a swim and a kids boxing/mma instructor, through that job I found my first nannying position in 2019 and I haven’t looked back since! I have experience with all age ranges and love to find developmentally appropriate activities to do in and outside of the house. I am CPR and first aide certified through the Philadelphia Nanny Network, which i’ve been with for 4 years now! I currently work with a 1, 2.5, and 4 year old and i’ve been with them for about a year, our contract ends March 23rd so I am available then. Best of luck on your pursuit of finding a wonderful nanny and I’d be delighted to be considered!
