A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Nala, and my friends call me Lani. I attend Loyola University New Orleans as a theatre major during the school year! I love theatre because of the social skills I've picked up from it, not to mention all of the games and activities I have learned as well! In the future, I plan to become a Theatre teacher and direct a theatrical department.
(Experience in sewing, building things, painting, acting, directing etc.)

Aside from school, I am extroverted, but soft spoken. I enjoy crafts and indoor activities like listening to music, creating something new, or making snacks and meals! I also love outdoor activities like walks and going to the park.

I love to babysit and learn from the kids I babysit; they help me prepare for my future career as an educator, not only this, but I believe every babysitter can learn a lot about themself from who they babysit. :)

Last but not least, my favorite color is pink :)

I can't wait to start!

A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Savannah Davis, and I’m an experienced childcare professional with a genuine passion for helping children learn, grow, and feel loved. I’m currently pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education and hold certifications in CPR, First Aid, and all center-required childcare safety training.

With several years of experience working in early learning centers, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from curious toddlers to imaginative preschoolers. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where kids can explore the world through play, creativity, and hands-on learning.

Families I work with often describe me as patient, dependable, and warm-hearted. Whether it’s helping with routines, encouraging milestones, or simply making the day fun, I take pride in bringing consistency and care into each child’s day.

I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide the same level of care and attention I give my own loved ones.

A little bit about me

Hello!! I’m Angela, I understand life is busy and having multiple years of babysitting/nanny experience, along with tutoring experience, I’m looking to help families feel secure that their child is getting quality care. I am adaptable for every parents needs in how they want their child to be guided in life.
Now a little bit about myself, I strictly follow rules given to me so there is no boundaries crossed or misunderstandings, an example I see often now is screen time or gaming limits. I believe communication is key for this. I love hiking, art, reading and own a cute 4yr old husky. I’m good with all types of animals as well, anything from cats and dogs to snakes, mayyybe even spiders for the niche owners. I am also currently working my way to upgrading my computer system to learn coding and marketing, I love to find new hobbies that challenge my mind and grow in society. If you think I’d be the right fit please reach out anytime!!
