A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Annabelle, and I have 4 years of experience working in a daycare with children ranging from 2 months old to 13 years old. Caring for kids isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and understood, and I always do my best to create a positive and caring environment for them.

I also have experience working with children with special needs, and I believe deeply that every child deserves the same love, patience, and respect, no matter their abilities, background, or race. I treat all children equally and always strive to meet each child where they are.

I am 15 years old and currently in high school, so my schedule is pretty busy during the week. However, I am available on Sundays and am reliable, responsible, and dedicated when I commit to caring for your child. I would be honored to help support your family and care for your little ones with kindness and understanding.

Although I have worked as a nanny in the past, I have been working as a special education teacher for the last 4 years with students in kindergarten to second grades. I decided that this would be my last year teaching and would like to be a caregiver again.

A little bit about me

My name is Roslynn, and I have several years of hands on childcare experience with children of different ages. I have experience helping with light meal prep, daily routines, and transportation to activities like swim lessons.

Childcare has always been a part of my life -- I've been babysitting for family for as long as I can remember, eventually becoming paid and gaining additional clients through referrals. My aunt worked at a daycare and school, which helped connect me with families who trusted me to care for their children.

I'm patient, responsible, and very attentive. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while making sure children are well cared for and parents feel at ease.
