A little bit about me

I am a 62 years old. I have a 30 year
old son who is really a well grounded young man. I am a retired professional and remember
when I had to hire a nanny. I am more than responsible perhaps a little over protective of children.
I would like an opportunity to help.
Please call me @ [phone number hidden].
Sincerely
Jan

A little bit about me

Hello,
I'm a professional and a single mom of a 14 yr old. I worked with children while going through college as babysitter and a live-in nanny.
I am currently unemployed and looking to keep myself busy, so due to my live for children I am naturally driving to childcare. I am a pretty good cook, if I say so myself. 😊 open to cooking & light housekeeping if needed. Love animals as well, so if there is any need with your pet(s), I am flexible with that as well. I live in Del Mar Heights, so preference would be a family close to my area of town.

A little bit about me

My name is Bréyan Ashley, and I am a recent graduate with a Psychology degree. I have five years of professional experience working with children coaching volleyball and being a shared nanny for two families in Lafayette, CA, overseeing a total of six children. This experience has equipped me with the patience, adaptability, and multitasking skills necessary to provide a nurturing and structured environment for children of all ages to thrive in.

I am eager to transition into a long-term nanny position where I can continue to make a positive impact on children's lives. With plans to attend nursing school in the near future, I am seeking a role that will allow me to further develop my caregiving skills.

I am passionate about arts and crafts, as well as sports, and I am committed to fostering a fun and enriching environment for your children to explore their interests and talents. I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care and support to children of all ages.
