A little bit about me

My name is Danielle, I’m excited about the opportunity to provide care for your child(ren). I have a strong background in working with children, supported by my double major in Psychology and Child and Family Studies from Berea College. My experience includes academic knowledge about child development and hands-on roles that required patience, creativity, and responsibility.

In addition, I served as a student chaplain at Berea College, where I honed my skills in creating nurturing, inclusive environments. I also organized events to bridge cultural gaps, showcasing my ability to build meaningful connections with diverse groups of people. I understand the importance of creating a safe, engaging, and fun environment tailored to each child’s unique needs.

Whether it’s assisting with homework, organizing fun and educational activities, or simply ensuring their routines are followed with care, I’m confident in my ability to support your family.

Thank you for considering me!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Alex, and I am currently a senior at the University of Kentucky, majoring in marketing. Throughout my time at school, I have been actively involved in leadership and extracurricular activities, including serving as the President of the Finance Society and being a former member of Pi Beta Phi.

When it comes to childcare, I have a wealth of experience and a genuine passion for working with children. For the past two summers, I have been a personal assistant, where I was responsible for driving the kids to various appointments, as well as handling light housekeeping. I've gained valuable skills in multitasking, time management, and creating a safe, nurturing environment for the children in my care.

I would love to chat more about how I can be a great fit for your family and provide the best care for your children!

A little bit about me

I am a 43 year old mother of two perfect little angels. Welllll.....not so little anymore, haha. They are now 14 and 17. I was blessed to be able to stay home with them while also doing a stay-at-home daycare. I did this is Indianapolis and when we moved here in 2012. In college I also worked at a center for kiddos of all ages. I have never lost a family just lots of love and great acknowledgement. I briefly (almost 7 months)worked at one of the most prestigious preschools in Lexington but just couldn't make ends meet. But I learned so much and can't wait to incorporate it. I have wonderful references, and I can't wait to meet and chat with you and your precious kiddos. You won't be disappointed. I also LOVE cleaning which I know is always nice to come home to. But kids are my everything, if I could have had 10, I sure would of! Oh and I also dabble in Real Estate on the side. :) Thank you for your time and I can't wait to chat!
