A little bit about me
I’ve been working with children for most of my life—it’s something that’s always come naturally to me. I started babysitting at 13, and by 18 I became a full-time daycare teacher, which really deepened my love for early childhood development. I’ve continued nannying and babysitting over the years to support my college journey. Working with kids brings me so much joy—I love being part of their growth, helping them learn through play, and creating a safe, fun space where they can thrive.
I am a fun energetic person who loves to intrigue a child’s mind with learning as well as keeping them safe and loved.

A little bit about me
Hey I am Ifeoma but I go by Misa. I am a 22 year old college student who is studying psychiatric nursing. I have prior work experience from working at a daycare with kids of different ages. I learned a lot in that field & I loved it. I’ve also worked in group homes with teenage kids and young kids, that I also enjoy, and learned a lot about mental health issues from anxiety, depression, and even autism, which has been a factor of why I would like to further my education and goes into the career of nursing with mental health patients. I hope I can assist you in caring for your little one

"Misa was such an amazing nanny to my kids. At time I would get jealous cause I felt as if they liked her more than me. She’s very caring and delicate. Her energy is everything. I can’t think of anything negative to say. She’s the absolute best!"

A little bit about me
Hello there-my name’s Amida! I have a deep passion in caring for infants & children! I always knew it was my calling as I grew up being able to relate well with children. Friends & family would tell me that I’m like a “kid magnet”! It has been observed that children seem to gravitate towards me whether we are at the playground, a school event or a party! They’ll naturally seem more comfortable to chat with me!
As far as my experience goes, I have over 5 years of experience in caring for infants/kids in their homes. I am a former backup caregiver, meaning I visited different homes everyday and cared for babies and children ranging from the ages of 6 weeks to 16 years old. I am a certified teaching assistant/paraprofessional that has over a year of experience working as a teaching assistant in a private kindergarten class in a hybrid daycare/academy. CPR/first aid certified. I’m also a mother to 1 son! Currently looking for part time+ Open to discussing more! Take care.
