A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Haley,
I've been a nanny for 6+ years, and babysitting for about 10 years. I have had kids from newborn to 13 years old. As a nanny(and a sitter), I have helped with a LOT of things from homework, play and helping around the house. I am like a co-mom or personal assistant but I love my job. I cook, I love board games and playing outside, I help with school/homework, I can drive to and from school and/or after school activities, or parks! I love arts and crafts! Arts and crafts are a big thing with me! I feel I am super creative. I love to play games and run around and be silly. I would love the chance to talk more and get to know each other and see if we could be a great fit!

Recent reference

"I am a nurse who had just had my baby girl. Me and my husband have spent long hours searching for someone to take care of her while I went back to work. We interviewed multiple people and had multiple people come over and play with her but none of them have the right fit. Something about justus was different her interview went great she wasn't afraid to talk to us about anything as to other nannies were a little like nervous and shy she was just like I got this with confidence. She helped take our baby girl to doctors appointments bring her up to have lunch with me at work when I requested it . She was never late and always on time and always just had a positive attitude. Me and my husband are thinking about having more kids and if we do only be calling Justus to be our nanny."
