A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Alma and I'm 20-years old. I nannied for the same family for two years, starting when their oldest was 17 months old and their youngest was 10 months old, and continued caring for them as they grew to 3 and 1. I helped with daily routines like bottles and formula prep, meals, diapers, potty training, naps, crafts, walks, playground trips, zoo outings, and other fun activities. I cared for the children both independently and while the parents worked from home. I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified (pediatric and adult) and always prioritized creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment.

A little bit about me

I’m graduating in June with a bachelor’s in Biology, interdisciplinary in Child Development and Psychology. Coming from a large family of 10 kids, including twins, I grew up helping raise my younger siblings—so caring for children has always been second nature. I worked for 2 years as a Behavioral Interventionist in a charter school with kids of all ages, then became a Substitute Teacher. I’m CPR + First Aid certified and experienced with babies, toddlers, and school-aged children. I enjoy helping with routines, learning activities, and building strong connections with kids and families. Feel free to reach out for references or to set up a call!

A little bit about me

Hi I’m Rose!
Born and raised in small town Wisconsin, I moved to the cities just a couple years ago. Proud to call this city my home, you can find me walking along the river, reading at my favorite coffee shop, trying new restaurants, and strolling the MIA museum.
I enjoy coloring, reading, going on long walks, drinking tea, word searches, and working on a puzzle. Any activity that is calm and relaxing I’m down for.
Although I have never been paid for childcare, I am one of seven children and grew up changing diapers, bottle feeding, making meals, driving to the park, helping with homework, reading stories, and all the other duties of an older sibling with working parents.
I have worked customer service for almost the last ten years and have a passion for caring for people. Looking to find a more relaxed job with a bit more stability than the hustle bustle of customer service. Am excited to be able to use my skills and passion for helping and caring for children.
Thank you!
-Rose

I come from a musical background and have competed in national vocal competitions. I played competitive baseball and hockey in the past and still enjoy both sports. I am also one test away from being a lifeguard, so swimming safety shouldn’t be a concern.
