A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Hannah, I just moved to Ruston, LA recently from southern Arkansas. I am a college graduate with a surgical technology degree as of 2019. I’m excitedly expecting my first child in January 2024, unfortunately finding work while pregnant is very difficult. The most understanding people to understand my situation would be parents of those that have children as well. I have experience from newborn to 10 years of age including personal and paid, I can easily prove professional and personal references as well. I have a VERY flexible schedule and able to attend any hour amount or time of day as needed. I love pets as well no matter the size, your fur babies will also be taken care of just as equally!

A little bit about me

Nurturing young minds is a true passion of mine. With five years of experience caring for children aged newborn to 11, I've developed a patient and friendly approach that kids respond to. My previous babysitting experiences solidified my desire to support families by providing reliable care. I am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. I hold a college degree and maintain current certifications in CPR and First Aid. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I prioritize open communication with parents, using verbal updates at pickup and always respecting your preferred method. I'm also very comfortable enforcing household rules. Being able to help children thrive brings me immense joy, and I hope to bring that same care and enthusiasm to your family.

Recent reference

"Hannah was a nanny for our son just prior to him starting daycare. She helped our family tremendously at a very crucial time. She is highly intelligent and adaptable, very punctual, very pleasant and caring towards children, and an excellent communicator. Our son was constantly giggling and having fun in her care. Her knowledge and experience in child care was apparent from the start and it was instrumental in our son's development. But more than anything, she was extremely reliable, which was exactly what we needed. If you are looking for a true child care professional who connects extremely well with children and ensures that they have fun while learning and developing, cares for them as if they are her own, communicates very effectively with parents, and provides unbelievable reliability/dependability, Hannah will be an excellent choice for your family."

A little bit about me

Hello! My last job working with kids as a teacher's assistant was a demanding yet super rewarding experience. I hope to have had the same impact on those kids as they did on me. I've loved working with kids since my first job in high school as a childcare provider at one of my hometown's local churches. Some of my other interests include skateboarding, yoga, cooking, gardening, photography, and reading. I'd love to share my hobbies with your kiddos if they show interest!
I've recently resigned from college temporarily for various reasons, therefore I'm available almost whenever you need me! I'd love to work with kids again, thank you for considering me!

She was a godsend and our daughter still requests for her to pick her up when she’s in town to visit as well as still talks to her on the phone because they’ve built an amazing relationship. We couldn’t have asked for a better nanny."
