A little bit about me

Hi!
I currently live in a small town in NH and am looking to relocate and start nannying. I currently work at a pediatric dental office and have been here eight years. I’ve previously worked in a child care center in the infant room, been a nanny to children ages 3-10, and have babysat children of all ages.
I have also worked with special needs children & adults.
There’s nothing more I love than being around kids. They make my life so much brighter every day. Please feel free to reach out. :)

A little bit about me

Hi there! I’m a super experienced nanny with over 7 years of hands-on care, and I’m passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for kids. I’m graduating from the University of Alabama in May with a degree in Public Health, and will have obtained my EMT certification by April. You can trust that I’m not just fun but also prepared for anything when necessary! I’m friendly, caring, and love getting creative with activities that keep kids engaged and learning. From arts and crafts to outdoor adventures, I’m all about making every day exciting while keeping their health and safety top of mind. I can’t wait to bring my energy, skills, and big heart to your family!

A little bit about me

I began babysitting for families around me at the age of 12. It started as an as-needed position in my younger years, but once I obtained my driver's license, it became an everyday, after school position. When the summers came around, I served as a full-time nanny for one family for many summers, traveling with them as needed. The summer of 2019, I served as a full-time camp counselor for Camp Ozark. I was in charge of 12 seven to ten year old girls on a two week basis over the summer. Currently, I have 3 main families that I nanny for on a frequent basis and many other families as needed. Personally, I would describe myself as an outgoing and optimistic person, never meeting a stranger. I love to experience new things and have a good time, but also understand when it is time to focus and get to work. I look forward to matching with the perfect family soon.
