A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Rory, and caring for children has always been a big part of my life. As an aunt to four energetic nephews and one sweet niece, I've spent countless hours helping to raise and nurture them, from playtime and homework to bedtime stories and everything in between. I regularly babysit for friends and family, which has given me experience with children of various ages and personalities.
I also volunteered for two years in an afterschool care program. I supported kids with homework, organized fun activities, and helped create an encouraging environment. That deepened my understanding of how to meet children's individual needs while fostering positive behavior.
I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can learn and grow. Whether it's building forts, doing crafts, or just being a steady presence in their day. I'm excited to bring that same energy and care into a nanny role and become a dependable part of your family's support system.

A little bit about me
I absolutely love babies and children! I am the oldest of four kids and naturally a mother hen. My youngest sibling is autistic, so I have a lot of experience working with children who have special needs. I have been babysitting since I was 10 years old and have worked full time summer nanny jobs for two families spanning over three summers. I also have worked as a substitute teacher on my winter and summer breaks, most recently in 4k. I would love to build a relationship with your family as I am still very close with my previous nanny families.

A little bit about me
I am a spiritual 34 year old, newly divorced digital photography graduate who adores kids, animals, exploring, writing, art and new experiences. I am a spiritual vegetarian who loves all animals but yet can still cook a steak to order and am always open to exploring new cultures and diverse perspectives. I grew up in a small town right outside of Northfield, MN which I loved, and just recently moved to the Minneapolis area which I love as well. Being a Gemini, I'm curious by nature and very adaptable and empathetic, which is a few great traits to have if you're looking to take care of children. I have experience working in a Montessori, a daycare, special needs individuals, am ServSafe, and have experience as a housekeeper. Please feel free to reach out to me if you feel as though I'd be a potentially good fit to care for your kiddos! I'd love for an opportunity to meet in person :)
