A little bit about me

Hey there! I’m Joeli, a 21-year-old nanny with a passion for caring for little ones. Despite my age, I bring a wealth of experience to the table, having spent the past seven years immersed in childcare from ages infant-12years. Ive been immersed in childcare for 7 years, spanning from infants to preteens. It all started when I was 14, working at my family's daycare center, where I learned the intricacies of child development and discovered my calling. Transitioning into professional nanny work at 17, I've since dedicated 4 years to providing exceptional care, from preparing nutritious meals to fostering a nurturing environment where children can thrive. Beyond the basics, I strive to be a positive influence, imparting values like kindness and curiosity. Outside of work, I indulge in nature, photography, and reading, but my commitment to childcare excellence remains steadfast.

A little bit about me

As a former collegiate athlete with experience teaching grades K-2 and coaching middle school and high school athletes, I bring a unique blend of athleticism, educational insight, and mentorship to the childcare setting. My passion extends beyond the field as I relish the creative world of arts, savor the joys of cooking, and thrive on the energy of sports. These diverse interests allow me to offer a well-rounded and engaging experience for children under my care, where the love of learning, physical activity, and creative expression converge seamlessly.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Catherine, but I go by Cat. I am from Rockland County, NY. I grew up with babysitters as both of my parents worked full time. As I grew up I began to watch my brother and my cousins. This than shifted to more formal babysitting gigs and then I worked for 4 years at a rock climbing gym for kids that had childcare/camp from ages 4 and up! This winter I completed my senior internship at Boston Children's Hospital on a short stay surgical unit, so it's safe to say I enjoy working with kids! I have experience babysitting with most age groups, and currently babysit for a family with a 1.5 year old and a 3 year old. I have a german shepherd dog at home so pets are welcomed! I consider myself to be extroverted, caring, and compassionate. I graduate this May with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of New Hampshire. I have my Basic Life Support for Healthcare providers and Advanced Cardiac Life Support certifications
