A little bit about me
I am 20 years old and am currently a Sophomore at The University of North Dakota. This summer I will be living in Minneapolis and am looking to connect with a family and be a nanny! I absolutely love kids, I was a nanny for several years in high school and had so much fun. I grew up being the oldest of my 9 cousins, so I’ve always been surrounded by younger kids, making me that “role model” figure and I just love it. I am very laid back and go with the flow. I love to play sports, be outside and do activities! I also love to watch movies and play board games, whatever the kids want to do! Ideally, I would like to work 40 hours! I am willing to do whatever it is you need to to do from transportion to cleaning ect. Super excited for another fun, summer nanny opportunity!

A little bit about me
Over the past five years, I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages. I spent two years at a childcare center providing attentive care and play-based learning for infants and toddlers. I then nannied full-time for a 6-month-old boy for a year, supporting his developmental milestones and building a nurturing routine. Most recently, I cared for two school-aged girls (ages 7 and 9) for two years—helping with homework, engaging in creative activities, and fostering a supportive environment. These diverse experiences have strengthened my ability to connect with children at every stage, ensuring they feel safe, engaged, and valued.

A little bit about me
background: public and private school (breck)case manager, nanny, housekeeper/ organizer/ interior decorator, author, photographer, artist. I desire to inspire through empowerment, the outdoors, creativity, storytelling, and movement. I'm a free spirited that views the deeper meaning(s) of life through sub/consciousness and mindfulness. I have a willingness to see the good in every given situation. I value the success of our youth; mentally, and emotionally—as they are our future; we must ensure their minds follow their heart, and their heart follows their passion(s). Life is for existing fully as yourself, creating the world in which you live in. I love imagination, wonder, and adventure. Everyday is a new day to learn something new—about yourself, others, and community. I love to remind children that life is endless, be anything you want to be, and be safe while doing it. It’s okay to fear, because our fullest potential is on the other side of it. “The sooner than later” is important
