A little bit about me

My name is Skyleen and I’m a nurturing and a fun-loving person. I’ve been dancing since I was 3 and even majored in it in high school. After graduation, I worked as a dance teacher, where I had the privilege of teaching students of all ages, including children with disabilities, ranging from ages 3- 15. This experience has not only deepened my passion for working with children but also strengthened my ability to connect with kids in a meaningful way.

Being an older sister to my younger brother, who I’m 6 years older than, has taught me a lot about responsibility and care. I’ve also spent time babysitting my younger cousins, who are between 10-20 years younger than me, and I’ve loved every moment of it!

I am currently a nursing student, which has deepened my passion for helping others. I’m looking for a part-time nanny position where I can bring my energy, and nurturing spirit to your family. I believe in creating a warm and engaging environment where children can thrive and have fun.
