A little bit about me

Hello guardians. My name is Kayla Nicholas, I am 19 soon to be 20 and, I LOVE KIDS!! I have had experience volunteering with my previous churches. I am passionate about helping others and by babysitting/nannying, I am able to help both the guardians and the children. I love to cook (as a picky but healthy eater myself) and clean. I also can help with elementary and middle school homework, love to play, and be active. I am an EMT in New Hampshire and will be certified out here in California mid-March of 2025. I aspire to be a pediatric flight nurse, which means I would be something similar to being paramedic on a helicopter for life flights. I look forwarding to potentially helping you and your family out soon! Remember, "Kay" for kindness.

Hours Notice: My hour are subject to change within the next couple of weeks due to moving, school, and work. I will be diligently checking and updating my profile to reflect what is true to the current time. Thank you for your patience with me :)

Hi Parents!
I'm Vjollca Shehu. I'm an responsible,
experienced nanny and I love working with kids. Safe, healthy, developed child. Those are what I'm working for while I'm with the children. I can spend plenty time with them and that makes me happy.. I love to do a lot of activities in and out door, helping their development, Reading and a lot of games to give them happiness and effective hours.
Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together. I can speak fluently, read and write English, Greek, Albanian. My goal is you to have peace in your mind for the time I'll be in your home. I'd love to have the best relationship with baby"s parents.
My responsibility for your child, clean and tidy home, will be in higher level.
I'll have weekly schedule for the child's activities, inside and out( park, library etc.) I'd love to discuss and agree with child's parents before applying them.
