A little bit about me

I'm Ubah, a university student. I can provide part-time live-out nanny roles and part-time babysitting services. Creating a secure and engaging environment where children can flourish brings me immense joy. From educational activities to maintaining a tidy space and serving nutritious meals, I aim to support busy parents while ensuring kids thrive.
I have experience providing occasional babysitting, caring for my cousin’s children, and looked after a 2, 4, and 6 year old during the summer. I have done after-school care for a 5 and 9 year old and am hoping to find additional childcare work. I’ve always worked with children younger than me, from elementary school to high school, through babysitting, tutoring, volunteering at school events, and helping as a math and reading buddy. These experiences have helped me develop strong communication, problem-solving, and mentoring skills. I’m personable, caring, and genuinely enjoy working with kids. I’m happy to care for pets as well.

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Sabrina. I'm 25 years old from Toronto. I have experience working with kids from ages 7 months to 7yo spanning over the past 7 years or so.

My experience includes babysitting infants/toddlers, volunteering in kindergarten classes, and tutoring 2nd grade math. In addition to supervising and keeping the children safe and entertained, I'm also able to cook for the children in my care, help with homework, do some light housework and potentially other small errands if necessary.

When it comes to working with kids, their safety and wellbeing are always my main priority. However, its also important to me as a caregiver to create a warm and welcoming environment which allows the kids in my care to feel safe, heard and cared for. I'm also passionate about helping kids learn and grow, developing confidence as well as fundamental skills appropriate for their age.

If you are interested in potentially hiring me as a nanny or have any further inquiries feel free to contact me!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Samiya! I’m a 25-year-old living in Etobicoke, born in Montreal, Quebec. I’ve been working with children ever since I was a child myself! I’m often told children gravitate to me, which I attribute to the fact I’m still a child at heart.
My personal pillars as a nanny are child enrichment, education through play, compassionate care, and emotional safety/comfort.
My background includes a BA in Psychology with a certificate in ABA therapy. My experience includes camp counseling starting at age 16 (ages 4-12). After graduating, I worked as an ABA therapist where I gained experience with developmental needs, ADHD, and autism for ages 2-17.
I began nannying part-time 2 years ago! I worked with 2 families, with 2 & 3 children (ages 4 & 9 and 10 months, 2 & 5), for over a year.
Additional info: licensed G driver with own vehicle, strong swimmer, hold CPR and First Aid certifications.

Fun fact: I love animals, I’ve had cats, birds and fish !
