A little bit about me
Hello, I'm Lynn! I'm an undergrad college student with an existing associate’s degree. I will be in the Chester and Blooming Grove area until mid-August, when I have to return to my out-of-state university. I enjoy crafts, music, movies, and crafting fun experiences for your children! Whether it be hosting a game night, teaching them to make bracelets or charms, or having a karaoke night, I prioritize fun while maintaining a safe-structured environment suited to parental requests. I am familiar with CPR and first aid, but am working on getting certified. I enjoy meal-prepping healthy and tasty foods and I am diligent about keeping your home clean. I hope to hear from you!

I am a mother of three boys ages 21, 20 and 7. I am a former New York City kindergarten teacher, and I have also taught Preschool. I left the education field to run my own business for several years and now I’m looking to slow down a bit from that type of career and be able to go back to what I love, which is teaching, playing and taking care of children. I have both personal and professional references.

A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Diamante. Caring for children has always been a passion of mine, and I especially enjoy working with babies and toddlers.
Growing up, I spent a lot of time babysitting, which sparked my love for childcare.
I’ve worked as a part-time babysitter for a family with a newborn, helping the mom after her baby came home from the hospital. I built a close bond with the family and cared for their daughter as she grew. She’s now 6 and in school, so I’m looking for a new family to support.
I’m currently a Registered Behavior Technician with experience working with children with special needs. This role has helped me develop patience, strong communication, and the ability to follow specific routines.
I’m dependable, patient, and pride myself on maintaining consistent routines and sleep schedules. Creating a safe and nurturing environment is my top priority.

I felt very comfortable having my baby in Debbie’s care and would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, kind nanny."
