A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a CNA with 3 years of experience and I’m BLS/CPR certified. I have experience babysitting my younger brother and children of close family friends, and I genuinely love working with kids. I’m patient, reliable, and always prioritize creating a safe, fun, and caring environment. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, going to the beach, and spending time outdoors with my boyfriend, family, and friends. I’m looking for a stable part-time nanny position and would love the opportunity to help care for your little ones!

A little bit about me

Im someone who will forget I'm babysitting just because I'm naturally so caring and playful when caring for kids. I grew up surrounded with kids and taking care of them, I just like to know what of type of lifestyle they live in and I adapt to their lives and be funny with it.
I'm very artistic and can make anything fun. I love to cook and find new things to do, I love music and dancing. id even sit down to play tea party or nurf war. I'm so down for anytype of babysitting I just need history and some warnings about anything I should be aware for. I'm great at hair, I'm good at making sure they smile and having fun but also help them learn small things as we go along our day. I enjoy cleaning sometimes and I can drive safely. I'm great at hide and seek and active moving. I can keep kids busy and entertained.
