A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Mikaylah, I’m 21 years old, and I’m a caring, patient, and dependable person who truly loves working with children. I come from a large family with 10+ siblings, and I have experience caring for my 6 nieces and 4 nephews from infancy through childhood. I’ve helped with feeding, changing diapers, bathing, bedtime routines, homework, learning, playtime, and keeping children safe and comfortable.

I’m comfortable caring for infants and children of different ages and understand that every child has their own personality, needs, and routine. I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel loved and supported.

I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, organizing, laundry, meal preparation, homework assistance, and keeping the children’s spaces clean. Most importantly, I’m someone who genuinely enjoys helping people and takes caring for children seriously. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted and reliable nanny for your family!

A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Yeshua Irizarry. I’m 21 years old and currently studying Early Childhood Education in Philly. I’ve been working with kids for a while now—during the school year and summers at the Boys & Girls Club for the past three years—and I absolutely love it!
I’m all about helping kids grow, learn, and have fun. I have a background in musical theatre (over 10 years!) and love bringing creativity, music, and storytelling into my time with little ones. When I’m not working, you can usually find me reading, journaling, painting, or coming up with fun activities.

I also have a valid driver’s license and my own reliable car, so transportation is never an issue. I'm dependable, patient, and always bring good energy. I’d love to be a positive, caring presence in your child’s day!
