A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Gia! I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and will be completing my counseling internship. While I don’t have formal nannying experience, I have hands-on experience caring for my nieces and nephews and genuinely enjoy being around kids.

My education and training in counseling have helped me become more patient, understanding, empathetic, and attentive to others’ needs and emotions. I’ve also developed strong communication and active listening skills, which I believe are especially important when working with children.

In my free time, I love reading, painting and arts and crafts, cooking and baking, watching movies, and spending time outdoors. I’d love to incorporate those interests into fun activities based on what your child enjoys!

I’m caring, dependable, organized, and would love to find a family I can build a trusting and consistent relationship with while completing my internship.

Hi families! I’m Kacie, a Philadelphia based nanny and artist. I love working with children of all ages, spending time outdoors, and being creative!
