A little bit about me

My name is Leighla I’m currently 6 1/2 months pregnant and I’m just looking for something that I can do before giving birth to my baby to make a little bit of money. I’m now just finishing up my schooling as a dental assistant. I plan on pursuing that career after giving birth to my baby next year. I will clean, cook, help with schoolwork, help potty train , and what ever else you need help with?

Hi I’m MC, I have babysat children on and off through out my life and have my own 3 year old. I love kids and enjoy engaging them in fun activities!
I am friendly, caring, and responsible.

Recent reference

"We absolutely LOVE MaryCarol! I cannot recommend her enough. She is unbelievably patient, attuned to the needs of those around her, and always so caring. My toddler can be a little bit of a handful, and every time she was with him she was extra attentive to his needs and took the time to connect with him and make him feel seen. She was always excited to play, she was a compassionate shoulder for him when he needed one, and she was extremely observant of the subtle ways he liked to play. If you are in need of a nanny for your little one, do yourself a favor and hire her. She’ll keep your little one safe and entertained and they will be excited to see her the next time she comes over."

A little bit about me

Hello! I have 3 years of experience working for a nanny site, plus years of experience babysitting within family. I've worked with mainly ages 1-3 years old but pretty comfortable with any age. I am a college student so my hours will be weird at times. I'm a fun and outgoing nanny, I love making kids smile, laugh and showing them the outside world. While being able to take some stress off the parents.

One thing you should know about me is I can be shy at first but I'm very outgoing once I'm comfortable!
