A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Michelle. I’m a passionate and dedicated individual who truly enjoys working with children. I have experience in a variety of settings—including homes, schools, and clinics—which has given me the opportunity to work with kids of all ages and abilities. I also have extensive experience supporting children with special needs, and I take pride in creating a positive, patient, and encouraging environment for every child I work with.
Outside of work, I love spending time outdoors and exploring nature, as well as cooking and trying out new recipes. Working with kids is not just a job for me—it’s something I genuinely love and feel deeply passionate about. Helping them grow, learn, and reach their potential brings me so much joy and fulfillment.

A little bit about me
Hello! I am 22 years old! I love anything outdoors like hiking, fishing, playing pickleball, zip lining or just going on walks! I also love reading, anytime I have downtime you can find me reading!
I enjoy singing, making music or listening to music! My go to is 80s-90s classics! I am not currently in school but I desire to go back and finish getting my degree! i am not a big tv watcher but if i do i often watch FRIENDS or Gilmore girls or something chill i can put on. I also like any and all things Star Wars or lord of the rings.
I am not sure what I want to pursue in life right now which is why I am not currently in school, I desire to do something that involves helping people but I don’t know what exactly i want to do with this desire.
Lastly my favorite color is Green :)

A little bit about me
My name is Cherish, and I’m 21 years old, currently attending college studying biology with a focus on physical therapy. I’m on summer break from April through September, which gives me a very flexible schedule.
I have a strong background in childcare. I’ve been babysitting since I was 13, worked in a daycare, and most recently spent time as a live-in nanny. I come from a large, close-knit family—my mother and grandmother are both foster parents and have also run a daycare—so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. As the oldest of five, I’ve also had plenty of hands-on experience helping raise and support younger children.
In addition to childcare, I completed two years of culinary arts courses during high school, which allows me to prepare meals and create a fun, nurturing environment for kids.
I’m patient, positive, and always willing to learn and adapt to each child’s unique needs. I truly enjoy helping children grow, learn, and feel supported every day.

A little bit about me
Hey there! A few years ago I made the mistake of leaving the childcare field to pursue something I thought I would love, a 9 to 5 desk job. Boy, was I wrong! I'm looking to leave the corporate world and get back to what makes me happy, working to instill creativity, growth, and positive engagement within your kiddos!
I have a fun, up beat personality and believe that positive reinforcement is how little ones thrive and grow. I am musically inclined, so I love to share that side of me with kids as well to promote creativity and listening skills. I love park trips, unique crafts, and learning dances the most! I am honored to be “Aunt Lissa” to my wonderful nephews (and one baby niece very soon!).
I am fully vaccinated and continue to go about my life within my small bubble. I hope to have the opportunity to speak further with you!
