A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Audrey, I’m 20 years old and I absolutely love kids. I’ve been babysitting for families since I’ve been old enough and have had the most fun doing it. I recently worked as a live in nanny during the week with a 11 month old girl and a 7 year old boy! Right now I’m a shift leader at Jamba and Glorious in Cedar Lake and Crown Point, but I’m looking to get back into nannying before the summer! I’m a very energetic, fun loving girl who truly has a passion for helping and making an impact on you and your child(s) lives!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Omarii Phillips, and I’ve always had a natural love for caring for kids especially growing up with twin baby brothers!
Helping take care of them taught me patience, responsibility, and how to handle busy days with a smile. That experience is what made me realize how much I enjoy being around children and supporting families however I can.

I’m fresh out of high school and preparing to start college while also working on getting my driver’s license. Even though I’m just getting started professionally, I have plenty of hands-on experience from babysitting for family, neighbors, and especially with my younger siblings. I’m great with routines, playtime, light meal prep, and keeping kids entertained and safe.
