A little bit about me

Hello, I am a well mannered, fun-loving nanny who loves children of all ages and abilities. I have many years experience as a nanny and I would love to speak with you about what YOU are looking for to keep your family happy and productive while you are not at home!! I also have medical experience as I was a medical assistant earlier in my career...and I still know how to treat kiddos in emergency situations. I have worked with children from newborns to 10+ years and with various abilities. I enjoy interactive playtime such as reading, arts and crafts (although you may not be able to tell mine from your child's...I am horrible 😉), board games and baking if a child is old enough and interested....and homework help if they are school aged. Obviously, all activities are geared towards each individual child....so I'd love to talk to you and see what my years of experience can bring to helping your family run smoothly and be happy while you're at work. Thank you for your consideration🥰

A little bit about me

My name is Bridget and I am a 27 year old who is looking for a career change. I have worked many different jobs throughout my life, and I am currently a case manager at a school for children with autism and behavioral needs. I have worked here for a year, but feel that I need a change of pace. I find the most joy spending time with my niece and nephew, who are now 5 and 8, and realized I need to be around that kind of joy all the time. I am a hard working, caring, empathetic, and dedicated individual and I love working with children.

Part-time

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Melinda, and I’m a professional nanny with about 10 years of childcare experience. I’ve cared for children ranging from newborns (as young as 1 week old) through 12 years old, including infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and siblings.
I’ve had experience caring for families with 3 children, as well as two separate sets of twins, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple children and the different needs that come with each age.

I’m reliable, nurturing, patient, energetic, and I truly love being a nanny. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with age-appropriate activities, getting outside, going on adventures, reading, crafts, and creating a fun but structured routine.

I’d love to learn more about your family and what you’re looking for in a nanny! 😊
