A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ivey, I’m 19 years old, and I’m a loving mother to an 8-month-old baby boy! 💕 I’m also a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) with CPR certification and experience providing hands-on care. Being a mother has taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment for children. I’m very caring, dependable, attentive, and passionate about helping others. I’m comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, playtime, and following daily routines. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting or nanny opportunities where I can help families feel comfortable knowing their little ones are in caring hands. I would love the opportunity to become someone your family can trust! 💗
