A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Madison and I am new to the area but a WI native. I have always enjoyed being with kids and hope to pursue a job with children after completing my degree in psychology.

I come from a family with five girls, so growing up, I was used to the hustle and bustle of family life. I love being active, especially outside!

I have experience in babysitting and nanny jobs with both boys and girls, ages ranging from 6 weeks old to 12 years old.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is DyAnna but I go by Dee, i currently work at Kids Safari Learning center in Cottage grove as a co teacher from ages 1-5. I’ve worked as an after school program teacher since I start high-school and last year was my last year doing that. Im just looking for something a bit more one on one since dealing with 8+ kids is a lot sometimes. I like to plan activities that involve what the children are mostly interested in, I enjoy doing arts and crafts a lot and listening to music with the kids.

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Monica and I'm looking for a part-time, potentially after-school nanny position. I'm an incoming freshman at UW Madison so my biggest potential scheduling conflict would be my class schedule(which I will know after June 24). I will not be bringing my vehicle but I am happy to walk or take the bus pretty much anywhere I need to go! I love kids and am always willing to help out around the house too! I have been working as a summer day camp counselor at the YMCA so I am first aid and CPR certified. I would love to have a great time with your children this year!

I am CPR certified and First Aide certified, so I promise your babies are safe with me :)
