A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Elise, and I’m a 22-year-old who absolutely loves working with kids! Being the oldest in my family, I’ve grown up helping care for children and have always loved being the person they can count on. I have experience caring for children from ages 1–14, so I’m comfortable with everything from keeping little ones entertained to helping older kids with homework and activities.

One of my favorite things about nannying is getting creative! I’m especially passionate about arts and crafts and love coming up with fun, hands-on activities to keep kids entertained, learning, and using their imagination. Whether we’re making crafts, playing games, having a movie day, going outside, or just finding creative ways to make an ordinary day more exciting, I love making sure the kids are having fun and feeling cared for.

I’d love the opportunity to become someone your family can trust and your kids genuinely look forward to spending time with!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Zarina, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have experience teaching swim lessons to young children, including kids around ages 3–5, and I’m comfortable creating fun activities while also making sure children are safe and supervised. I’m patient, attentive, and understanding, and I always try to make children feel comfortable, heard, and included. I enjoy keeping kids entertained through games, creative activities, outdoor play, and learning experiences. I’m also CPR, AED, certified. I’m currently a high school senior and am involved in several school activities and leadership opportunities, which have helped me become organized, responsible, and good at communicating with others. I would love the opportunity to support a family and provide a safe, positive, and fun environment for their children!

A little bit about me

Hi! Alittle about me- I am 24 years old, I have a 3 year old daughter and i got heavily passionate about intentional learning and love for the kids starting from birth. I’ve babysat children even when I was a child because I appreciate kids and always had a passion for making them feel safe and heard. A lot of people think kids are the same and I do not! I love home schooling even if it’s not traditional. I am vegetarian, I love art, taking strolls, reading, and learning the personalities of little children. I love making everyone happy in the household and lifting weight off of a busy mom’s shoulder. When I was pregnant I had immense support and I realized how important this is for every mom. I also am in college for my business degree. Some of my work include stock trading and partnering with my fiancé for his cleaning business.

A little bit about me

Hello there! I'm a highly experienced nanny searching for a family to have a long-term working relationship with. In the last almost 20 years, I've gotten to hone my childcare skills as an in-home nanny, preschool aide, summer camp counselor, music teacher, and theater camp technician. Through this, I've found that I'm exceptionally gifted at helping neurodivergent kids and kids with special needs navigate their day to day, as well as building the trust needed to tackle bigger life transitions. My childcare philosophy is that parents and I are in collaboration to find creative solutions to problems and support a child's success while nurturing their confidence. I'm ideally looking for a family who's interested in having me grow with their kid as we celebrate their milestones together!
