A little bit about me
I am 20 years old, I have been working with kiddos for about 7 years. I have experience with teaching kiddos to learn while they play. For example asking them the colors/shape of something they are playing with! I am passionate about supporting families by caring for their children. My background includes early childhood development coursework and certifications in First Aid and CPR. I'm a creative and patient individual who loves to engage with children through outdoor games, board games, and educational activities. I'm also comfortable enforcing household rules and providing regular updates to parents.
When I am not working, I am spending time with my dog and cat, or my family!

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Trisha Libansky. I graduated with a Bachelor's in Human Development and Family Studies in 2013. My career experience thus far has been: Direct Support Professional (DSP) to adults with intellectual disabilities. I moved up to an QIDP/Case Manager for 16 individuals with varying intellectual disabilities. I had one year experience working directly with a young adult with visual and hearing impairments. I taught daily living skills and provided community outings. The last 5 years, I have been a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) providing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to young children on the Autism Spectrum. I am currently CPR/First Aid certified. I am shifting into becoming a professional career nanny. I have three experiences working directly with families on an as-needed/part-time basis. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out. I thank you for your time, and look forward to connecting soon.

A little bit about me
My name is Leah, I’ve worked with Toddlers for around a year now and I absolutely love it, I work in a daycare now but with so many kiddos it gets overwhelming sometimes, so I’d like something with only a couple kiddos so it’s not constantly running around.
