"I am writing to highly recommend Adriana as a caregiver. She took care of my son Winslow for a few months and I cannot speak highly enough of her abilities and dedication. From the very beginning, Adriana demonstrated an outstanding commitment to her role. She was always punctual, arriving on time and prepared for the day ahead. What truly impressed me was her attentiveness to my son's developmental milestones; Adriana actively engaged him in activities that fostered his growth and learning. Adriana has a natural talent for connecting with children. She is patient, kind, and playful, making every moment spent with my son enjoyable and fulfilling. It was clear that my son looked forward to spending time with Adriana , and I appreciated her ability to create a nurturing environment. I wholeheartedly recommend Adriana for any position as a caregiver. Her skills, professionalism, and genuine love for children make her a perfect candidate."

A little bit about me

My name is Ryle Loftis I am 22 years old and just got my degree in December from Arizona State University in sociology with a minor in applied psychology and counseling. I am a New American University scholarship holder and am very passionate about my education. I have worked professionally as a nanny/babysitter for 3 years now but have 5 years of experience in childcare. I have worked for both private households and also worked for a nanny business called College Nannies & Sitters. I enjoy working for a private family rather as opposed to for a company as I feel I am better able to make meaningful professional connections with the family. As a nanny it is very important to me to ensure that I can foster trust in the families I work for and communicate effectively in order to understand each families needs, routines, rules and expectations for their children's care.

"Ryle is the first and only person I interviewed to be our nanny. I had a good feeling about her from the very beginning, and after meeting her, I KNEW she would be the perfect person for the job. Her love for children is evident. She is keenly focused on their personal development, milestone achievement (including potty training). She is organized, thorough and always walks through the door, ready to dive into the craziness of the day. I highly recommend Ryle to any awesome, fun-loving families, like ours."

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Olivia Nelson. I'm 22 years old, I have a high school diploma and am currently attending Mesa Community College to receive my associates degree.
I've worked with many children over my life, and am looking to work more with kids and gain more experience in the field of nannying. I've worked three years as a care provider and transition to employment instructor for special needs individuals of a wide range of ages. I've worked mostly with ages 3 and up, but would love to work with younger children and am more than willing to learn all about what that would entail.
My work with special needs individuals has provided me with a great amount of empathy and patience, of which I would love to utilize to help support you and your family.
I also love arts and crafts, I draw, paint, and fold origami! I have a fondness for animals too, and would love to meet and help care for your furry, or fur-less, friends!

"I have had the pleasure of working with Olivia over the last year. We work with individuals with disabilities, and I have observed Olivia using compassion, patience and empathy. She is capable of redirecting her members with ease. She develops schedules and stays on task. The concern she has for her members is unparalleled. Her focus is on her member and their capacity to learn new and different skills. She thinks outside the box and is extremely creative! Olivia will be missed."
