A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Zakiyyah Capers. In the future I aspire to become a pre-k teacher and potentially open my own daycare eventually. I have been working with children my whole life and I want to continue to work with them because I truly love and enjoy it. I believe it's important to work in a field you truly love so you can give it your all. I've been a babysitter and a camp counselor throughout high school. Once I went to college I became an after school nanny for a family of four. I have also recently taken my first job as a teacher's assistant which I truly enjoyed. I am currently First Aid and CPR certified. I also obtain certifications such as Mandated Reporter and Health and Safety.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Mia and I have been in childcare for the pat 4 years. I have worked with a number of different ages from 4 months to 11 years and cared for up to three kids. There is really nothing I am not up for. Light house keeping, meal preps, after school activities, etc. are all things I have done/ currently do with each job.
I am a social girl who loves to create relationships with everyone around me, really getting to know them. I think it is extremely important to have a familiarity and comfortability between the child, parent, and caregiver. This creates the best possible scenario for everyone involved.
I am currently a senior in college, earning my degree in Integrated Media and Strategic Communications. I am planning on completing my last semester online and moving to the city.
If interested, I would love to send over my resume, reference letters, and even meet on a zoom!

A little bit about me
Hello, I am seeking a nanny position anywhere that could use my help. My love for babies and children budded as a pre teen in my church nursery where I watched over young children and infants. Since then, I started my freelance childcare business at 15 working for people my mom knew as clients. I would watch someone’s niece or kids for a date night here and there, but that turned into me picking siblings up from the bus stop after school and watching them until their mom got home that night. Eventually I even moved to New York from Ga in 2020 to help a family member postpartum while she was in the army.
Through this I learned how much I love children, and how passionate I am about giving them what they need. I am now 24 years old and my love for teaching, observing and dedicating my life to kids has only grown. My imagination has always been big & that helps with my passion. I thrive to do everything I can to add to the pot of the people they will become.
