A little bit about me
I love to live and live to love🤍 I’m currently learning Spanish, French, Korean and ASL. I’m 21 years old with 5 years of unpaid babysitting and 3+ years of paid nannying. I love to play tennis, figure skating and doing puzzles. Cooking and baking is a great passion of mine and keeping a clean and organized space is something I’m too familiar with. I’ve taken care of over 10 kids all different ages and even some with autism so I’m a little educated in that column as well. I would love to be the next nanny for your kids and I have a couple references that might be able to tell you as well! I’m a pretty good swimmer and story teller as well …I can’t wait to be a great nanny for your children🤍

"Karolina is truly one of a kind, and there is nobody I trust more with my children. When she first started caring for my boys, they were only 3 months old and 1 year old. Two very demanding ages that require constant attention and patience. My children absolutely adore her. They light up when they see her and have built such a special bond with her over the years. Knowing they were with someone who genuinely loved and cared for them gave me incredible peace of mind. She is dependable, caring, patient, and always goes above and beyond. She has become so much more than a nanny to our family, and I will always be grateful for the love and support she has given my children. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her, and I recommend her wholeheartedly and without hesitation"

A little bit about me
My name is Sophia, I’m 21 years old, and caring for children has always been a big part of my life. Growing up with several younger siblings gave me early hands-on experience, and I later built on that by working for two years at a childcare center, caring for children from infancy through preschool.
I’m outgoing, responsible, and take pride in maintaining a clean and safe environment. I love spending time with kids whether it’s helping them learn new things, encouraging creativity, or simply making them feel cared for and supported. I’m always open to learning new skills and embracing new experiences, and I bring a positive, adaptable attitude to everything I do.

"Having Leah as an employee was a relief for me and my kids honestly. Her diligent care for school aged children and toddlers is admirable. Luckily, I learned she was a sleep away camp counselor and she sounded quite creative! And she was! If you’re looking for a young adult who knows her stuff, I suggest contacting her!"

British Nomad currently in the Dominican Republic volunteering at a new world school called 'The Hive' I have lots of experience with children. Fun and caring, circus skills to share, juggling , handstands , clowning. Health and environmentally conscious. A day without green vegetables and laughter is a bad day! Family and community person. Intuitive to people's emotions and needs. And committed and loyal if I have made a decision I ride with it. I would very much like to go to New York to experience the city and way of life.

"I have four children (ages 10, 6, 2, & 1). Marcela is an asset to my family. Since Marcela initially contacted me, there has been great communication between us. Marcela primarily takes care of my youngest child, but also takes care of all four of my children when the occasion arises. Marcela helps me with preparing snacks and meals. She is a dedicated and dependable individual. My children care very much about her and enjoy her company. One of her greatest strengths is her ability to be flexible, yet maintain discipline. She is a friendly and fun individual and provides good mentorship to my children. She loves doing arts and crafts with the children, going on walks, and doing outdoor activities with them. Marcela is very patient and understanding. One of the biggest bonuses is that Marcela speaks Spanish. We asked her to speak Spanish to the children. She is loving, kind, warm, energetic and professional. We treasure Marcela and deeply value her contribution to our family."
