A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Natyre. Nae for short, I've been working with kids since I was 14 years old. I started working with kids in Middle school transitioning into high school. I started off working with infants and then furthermore up in age.

Caring for kids to me, is not just a job, but its a passion. Helping nurturing kids is not easy and sometime a helping hand is needed. And here's where I come in at.
I help with homework; I read to the kid(s) I assist with a little housework here and there, running small errands and or handling online grocery ordering/ pickup, and tidying up. Also, here for emotional support sometimes for the parents.

A little bit about me

Hi! My names Serenity, I’m 18 years old and I graduated highschool last year. I always dreamed of going to college for culinary but god had other plans for my and blessed me with my beautiful son who is about to be 5 months old. Alittle bit more about why I love cooking and baking is because of how much food brings people together! I love the fact that even if you don’t live in a certain country you still have the opportunity to experience one’s culture/ethnicity and traditions through the food they eat.As a mother I understand the importance of having full confidence and trust in someone when it comes to watching your child. I would love to believe that from an outsider perspective I’m a very clean, patient, honest, happy, loving, outgoing, trustworthy person who does very well under pressure and has great communication skills. That is why I believe I’m perfect for this job because I want to give parents the relief of knowing they left their little minis in good hands❤️
