A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Chloe and I am 23 years old and have a fun-loving, caring and empathetic personality. I have 9 hours left until I earn my Bachelors degree in public relations from The University of Oklahoma. Working and connecting with children has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember and I have been babysitting/nannying since I was 16 years old. Growing up both of my parents were teachers and although that is not the career path I am following, watching them excel at their jobs has encouraged me to nanny in my free time.

A little bit about me

Hi! I am currently in college getting my degree to become a special needs teacher but I am taking a little break to do online next semester so I am ready to work! I have baby sat children of all ages since I was in high school and I worked at Palmetto Christian Daycare over summers. I love working with children because they all are so different and seeing things through their eyes is incredible.

A little bit about me

Hello! I am from Rhode Island and have worked in the corporate fashion industry as a textile designer for 11 years. I am leaving the industry in hopes to be a full-time nanny for a family in need. I graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2011 and also have a NASM personal training and CPR certification. I have always felt that working with people and managing others was the most fulfilling part of my career as a designer and look forward to using those skills and others to look after children. I have babysat for numerous families since I was a teenager and am known to be a great listener and dependable. I love children, art, music, cooking and am more than happy to help with light housework as needed.
