A little bit about me

I have been babysitting kids since I was a kid. My first babysitting job (well role) was when I was like 9 of course I had supervision but I would clothe and change their diapers and play with them. I've always loved babies and that's why I got a job. Which is a highly recommended day care in my area. I worked in the nursery and did ages 2-5. I would offend get recommended to do weekend babysitting for some of he parents.

Side note: I have my own car!

"She was so patient with the kids (they tend to be a little nuts here or there) and she always went the extra mile for me on her own time. She was dependable, super tidy and stern with my kids. She was also kind, a sweetheart and performed as if there were her own kids. She was truly a gem to have."

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Daria Startari and I am 26 years old. I'm an Ithaca College graduate, and I've been nannying and babysitting on and off for over 10 years. I've been lucky enough to work with some amazing families in both Connecticut and Hawaii.
I am first aid and CPR certified. I also have experience with kids of all different age groups.
A little about me—I love being outside, going on adventures, exploring parks, doing crafts, reading books, and finding fun ways to keep kids engaged. I really enjoy creating a positive, loving environment where children feel safe, happy, and free to be themselves.
For me, being a nanny is so much more than just a job. I truly love building relationships with families and getting to watch children learn, grow, and hit new milestones. It's such a rewarding role, and I feel so grateful to be someone parents can trust and depend on with the people who matter most to them.

A little bit about me

Hello! I'm Bexy I'm a 34 year certified child care worker. I have 15 years experience in daycares & private babysitting. I have trainings & CPR/First aid trained aswell. I owned a daycare but my most recent position was Director to an after school program. I resigned because I went on maternity leave. I have a 12 yr old & an 11 year old 🥰 So my work availability has changed, I have no sitter for my baby, I bring her with me if the families approve! (Those who dont approve, I completely understand!) Some see it as a playdate with their little ones 🥰 As far as time availability, Since my son is in school, I have to drop him off and pick him up school. On Holidays when children are off from school I am available full time, I'm also available Saturdays and Sundays. I have great references (Business and Private) I am also bilingual, I speak English and Spanish!

Hi! My name is Shawanna Jefferson. I am an early childhood educator; however I am excited to pursue a career as a full time nanny. I have a passion for caring for children and watching and guiding their growth.

I am prepared to support a family in their daily lives through child care, home support, and building genuine relationships. Being a part time nanny in addition to being in the classroom and being a hands on Aunt has led me to understand that the next stop on my child care journey is having a career as a nanny.
