A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ebonie, and caring for children has always been at the heart of everything I do. After graduating from Clemson University in 2024, I began my journey as an Early Interventionist working with children with developmental delays. That experience deepened my passion for supporting children and families during some of their most important developmental years. Recently, I made the decision to transition into nannying as I prepare for my next goal becoming a Child Life Specialist. I’m currently building my experience and profile as I work toward applying for a master’s program this fall, which I plan to complete online while continuing to work closely with children and families. I’m looking for a nurturing, welcoming family where I can provide dependable, compassionate care while supporting your child’s growth, confidence, and individuality. I would be happy to create a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where they can truly thrive.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Caitlin Duffy and I’m a current student at the University of South Carolina! I am going into the last semester of my junior year of college as a nursing major. I was previously a swim instructor at my local YMCA in Delaware, where I worked with parent child classes through adult classes.

I am currently CPR and first aid certified and will be available to get all other requirements needed. I also have a valid drivers license and a car available if needed! I aspire to work as a pediatric oncology travel nurse in the future and hope to gain more experience in child care prior to that career.
