A little bit about me

I am a 30yr old friendly, responsible, caring, and the individual (also a mom to a 2yr old girl). I have worked with kids in the past as a nanny/babysitter and YMCA after-school child care provider. I have a flexible schedule but, ideally I would prefer the option to have my child with me during school days/hours. I don't expect her to be with me all the time.

Recent reference

"I am writing to highly recommend Badiyah Adams-Pryor for a position in childcare. I have had the opportunity to work with Badiyah at my facility, where she gained hands-on experience working with children in a supervised and professional environment. Throughout her time there, she demonstrated strong responsibility, patience, and a natural ability to connect with children of different ages. In addition to her professional experience at my facility, Badiyah has also provided personal childcare for my own children. I have trusted her in my home environment, and she consistently showed reliability, attentiveness, and care. She is dependable, trustworthy, and handles childcare responsibilities with maturity and confidence. Based on both her professional and personal experience, I believe Badiyah would be an excellent candidate for any childcare position. She is someone who genuinely cares for children and takes her responsibilities seriously."

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Pauline. I am an experienced caregiver living in Philadelphia. I have been working in Philadelphia as a caregiver for 5 years. I primarily have experience with infants and toddlers, although I have experience with a wide range of school ages. I love being a nanny because I am passionate about supporting young humans in growth and existence. The attention I give while being a caregiver is energetic, nurturing, and creative. Being attentive to the child’s emotional and physical needs at all times is very important to me. I strive to help a child feel safe, cared for, and entertained. I am always seeking to engage in ways that encourage development.
I love to stick to a routine, depending on the needs of the child. I am patient and flexible. I strive to set clear expectations of the job, with a contract based on my prior experience and current expectations we agree upon. I have satisfied area families for references upon request. Looking forward to meeting you!
