A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ruby, I am in my junior year at the University of the sciences. I am currently looking to either part-time nanny, ie. school drop off and pick up, or babysitting when needed. I am 19, love to hike, bike, and play outside. I love arts and crafts and fun projects. I love animals and am happy to do light housekeeping as well as laundry and meals. I watched my neighbor's son from 2 months till the age of 3 when I left for college. I also worked as a child care provider for friends meeting for the smaller children during their Sunday services.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Laura Rodas, and I’ve been living in the United States for 3 years while studying English. I have extensive experience working with children, a passion I’ve developed through roles such as Lead Teacher at La Escuelita Bilingüe in Paoli, where I cared for children aged 18 months to 3 years. I followed a bilingual curriculum that included enriching activities like yoga and the Montessori method to encourage growth and learning in a nurturing environment.

Additionally, I’ve worked as a House Manager, caring for two teenagers, preparing meals, and assisting with household tasks. I love cooking and creating meaningful connections with children and families.

I have excellent references and would be happy to answer any questions you may have. I’m excited to bring my skills, energy, and dedication to your family and to create a positive, supportive environment where children can thrive!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ashanti, and I’m 23 years old with a strong passion for working with children. I graduated with my Associate of Arts degree, focused on early childhood and working with kids. I have hands-on experience working in daycare centers and currently work as an assistant teacher, where I support classroom activities, help with daily routines, and provide a nurturing learning environment for children of different ages.

I’ve wanted to be a teacher since I was a child, and that passion shows in the way I care for and connect with kids. I’m patient, loving, reliable, and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment. Working with children doesn’t feel like a job to me, it’s something I genuinely love and take pride in.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Emi and I’m new to nannying but I’m not new to taking care of a child. I love children and it always a nice feeling when you encourage and motivate them in their early stages of development. Giving the confidence and nurturing a child’s needs is essential. And working with them is definitely grounding and gives me a different perspective in life. It’s always something new and a learning experience for the both of us. I’m currently looking to nanny part time. I’m currently a server so I have that hospitality and servitude mindset. I don’t drive but that won’t stop me from taking your child to do certain activities. I don’t have children of my own but I will definitely protect and take care of them as they were mine. I definitely want to expand this opportunity and where it can take me. Although, I know CPR but I’m not currently first aid/ cpr certified, I still have the intentions to get both certificates.
