A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Anna and I love kids! I grew up with 3 little brothers so I was a huge part of taking care of them. I love to have fun and go out and do things with the kids. I started babysitting when I was 12 and I've been casually picking up jobs ever since. I love checking off boxes and getting things done, keeping the house neat and tidy and making sure everyone is having a good time. Thank you for your time!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Katie. I have a very upbeat personality and have been told I have lots of patience. I meet each child at their level and needs, and I treat each day with a clean slate. I am a "hands-on nanny" meaning that I typically engage with the child(ren) instead of just "watching from a distance." I find engaging with the child(ren) allows for a more all-around positive experience and can help boost social and developmental skills (and motor skills depending on the age) as well as keep them from becoming bored.

I have a kiddo myself, a baby that would be joining me.

My hobbies include gardening, walking my dogs, and reading.

I have worked in the school system as an Interpreter/TA with special needs children and as a substitute teacher. I started my journey on this path at 13 as a "mothers helper" to a pair of twins down the street. I then "graduated" to nannying and tutoring in 9th grade and have been doing so since.

A little bit about me

I am young and energetic but have an old soul. My goal is to allow children freedom for growth while still maintaining structure. I grew up playing outside and using my imagination! I am not afraid to change diapers, help with homework, or come up with fun nicknames :)
