A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Jada! I’ve worked with kids for over six years now and I love what I do. I’ve cared for children from 3 months old through teenager years. I spent 4 years with one family, which meant a lot to me. I value consistency, building relationships, and being someone both kids and parents can fully trust. I’m experienced in school drop offs/ pick ups, driving to activities, school help, meal prep, bath time, and keeping routines running smoothly. I’m available for overnights and weekends and comfortable driving both my own car and family vehicles. I have experience with infants including bottles/feedings, naps, and developmental play. I also have a background in ABA training and behavioral support, which helps me guide children with patience while encouraging communication, confidence, and emotional regulation. I’m happy to help with light chores related and I’m comfortable with pets. Please feel free to reach out at any time and I’d be happy to provide my references if needed!

A little bit about me
Hello my names Philicia, I'm 45 years old and have been caring for children since my teenage years. One of my first experiences was babysitting a mentally challenged (autistic) child when I was 14 years old, in whom I babysat until I graduated high school. Worked in retail management for 10 years but my passion for children kept me striving as a nanny for different companies and many families. I've cared for twins and multiple children at once. I also have a foster care license which has blessed me with the opportunity to care for a beautiful newborn baby girl since August 2016! She's now 9 and an Honor student whom plays soccer. I'm looking for a long-term, full-time position with a family where I can utilize my current skills and contribute to the growth/development of the family & children I nanny for.
P. S. I'm a go getter, lots of infant/children knowledge, NCS and am extremely hands on. Covid neg + have the vaccine :)
