A little bit about me

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!

I'd describe myself as patient, caring, and positive. I approach children with a firm but calm demeanor and focus largely on helping them develop skills like confidence and independence. I also put lots of focus on keeping kids active and exercising their creativity.

I have been nannying full time since June 2021. I started working with kids when I was in high school as a babysitter and summer camp counselor.

I’m currently looking for a new family to work with 30-40 hours per week and am available starting July 28th!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Avery Smith, I’m 22 years old, and I would love the opportunity to be your nanny. As an older sister and a full-time banker, I’m responsible, patient, and dependable. I’ve been around children my whole life—my mom is a teacher, and I grew up learning from her nurturing environment. I also taught kids how to swim for four years, which strengthened my ability to keep children safe while making learning fun. I look forward to creating a caring and positive space for your little ones!
