A little bit about me

My name is Angelina, I love people and animals. I’ve spent most of my career in a caretaker position. I moved to the corporate side and found that the lake of interaction with people wasn’t for me. I love caring for children helping them grow learn and enjoy life. I work hard and I’m willing to learn the needs required to care for those I work with.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is christi! I have a 3yr old son myself and mothering/nannying is something I'm very passionate about and I'm deciding to make it my primary profession! It is very important to me that parents get trust worthy, top notch, loving, and affordable care for their children! I'm pretty flexible on child care, and can make almost anything work, because I understand how incredibly hard it can be to find reliable child care! If you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss, please don't hesitate to contact me and we can go from there!
