A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Cayenne, yep it's just like the pepper! I absolutely am passionate about doing my part to make the world a better place, I never felt right working for huge corporations.
However, helping people and families just like mine feels very meaningful to me and worth all the effort. I have always loved spending time with my best friends kids and wish I had some of my own. I have years of experience with baby sitting and I can say for certain, it has helped me grow tremendously as a person and I plan to consistently do that. Thank you so much for your time, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Sincerely,
Cayenne C

A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm Katie, and child care is my passion. I have a wide variety of experience with caring for children, including babysitting, nannying, tutoring, etc. I have a great deal of experience carrying for children ranging from newborn to kindergarten age, with experience with elementary school kids as well. I ran a nanny-share for 8 years with 3-5 kids at any given time, with ages varying from 6 weeks to 5 years old. Due to working with multiple families at a time and having some children age out to go to school while new children took the spot at the nanny share, I've been fortunate to love and care for 30+ wonderful kids in my 15 years of experience. Crafts, outside time, imaginative play, and reading are my specialties with kids.

A little bit about me

My name is Brianna (everyone calls me Alex) and I love working with kids! I have a soft spot for babies and toddlers, and alongside my nannying/babysitting experience, I've worked at a daycare doubling as an infant/toddler teacher. I can do in-home care, or provide care at my own home (I do have two cats, but they're very good with children)!

I'd describe my personality as warm-hearted, playful, and loving.

In my spare time, I like to do nail art, read- or anything that allows me to relax and wind down.

One thing you should know about me is that I am very experienced in special needs care! Not only do my own experiences aid in my ability to understand, but one of my brothers is autistic. I've also worked in a professional setting with kids that are special needs as well.

My skills include aid in developmental learning, cooking and clean up, and best of all, love!
