A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Kezia Nyarko - a 23-year old recent college grad from University of Houston. I visited Philly for the first time recently and fell in love with the city and the people. I'm looking to be a nanny because HOME feels like a warm tea on a cold rainy Sunday morning. I enjoy managing, organizing, and creating time for fun - and I want to do that for you and your family! I want to help you feel that way in your home everyday!
My best attribute is that I love to learn and I pride myself on doing tasks with respect to those requesting it. I have a few years of experience taking care of children at my local church and one year experience babysitting a six-year old boy. Where my experience lacks, my drive, enthusiasm, and creativity thrives. I'm here to be of best to you and your family - it's a key part of my life purpose.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Adriana but I go by Adri. I am 18 years old and have been a Nanny for a year. I am born and raised in Texas but looking to move to Philadelphia. I started my work as a Nanny last year for a family that was only moved to my City for a year due to work and they are back in their own town in California.
I was with a little girl in preschool and a little boy already in grade school. I can work with kids of all ages however. I can cook pretty good and help with chores around the house. I graduated top 2% of my class so helping with school work is no problem. I have a driver's license in the state of Texas and my own car, (2014 Ford Focus). If you are interested, let me know!

A little bit about me
I’m from Philadelphia and have been working as a live-in nanny for the past four years. During that time I’ve had the opportunity to care for children of different ages, helping them learn, grow, and feel supported in a loving environment. I truly love being a nanny because it allows me to make a positive impact on a child’s daily life, whether it’s teaching new skills, creating fun routines, or simply being someone they can trust. Watching children develop confidence and joy through my care is what keeps me passionate and dedicated to what I do every day.

"I met Anya Nova about 4 years ago when I entrusted her with taking care of my 2 year old boy and newborn girl. I worked rotating shifts as an EMT which meant picking up different shift hours and I was very grateful of Anya’s flexible schedule. She was able to provide care for my kids at a days notice, and I knew I could always rely on her!
Anya was able to take care of my newborn daughter with no problems. She made sure that my daughter was well fed, kept up with her sleeping schedule and made sure she was always in a safe area. I really love how Anya treated my children. My 2 year old boy would always smile when she would come over. She is truly a ray of sunshine!
I have recently moved to pursue a different career path and I am saddened that Anya is too far to care for my kids now but I am confident that Anya is more than capable of any task you put in front of her. I would recommend her for any company dealing with the care of children."
