A little bit about me

I love children!!! I have two younger sisters that were basically my baby-alive dolls… until they were too heavy for me to hold lol. I’ve babysat my younger cousins, family friends’ kids, random people off of Facebook’s kids, and I’ve volunteered at numerous camps/programs where I was responsible for children. I don’t mind changing diapers and I don’t mind cleaning up a mess. I’m in college, if you’re interested in hiring me as a nanny I can go into detail about my schedule, but it’s not too crowded. I live on campus and I have my own car, so transportation is not an issue. Again, kids are my favorite and as a socially anxious, broke college student, nannying seems to be the best option to stay happy and make some extra money!

A little bit about me

Hello! I’m Lacie, a 21-year-old who’s thrilled to embark on this nanny journey. I recently relocated from Texas to help my grandparents and save money for online college. With experience babysitting for family, friends, and neighbors’ children, I’ve learned how to engage kids in playtime, provide homework support, prepare meals, and establish daily routines. I genuinely love working with kids and creating safe, enjoyable, and engaging environments for them. While I’m still pursuing CPR and First Aid certifications, I’m committed to being fully prepared for any situation. I’m known for my reliability, patience, and unwavering dedication to providing exceptional childcare.

A little bit about me

My name is Brooklynne, I am originally from Illinois and moved to Lafayette. I currently attend the university of Louisiana working towards my masters in exercise science, where I also just completed my final season competing as a college track and field athlete #RaginCajun. I have worked athletic camps and summer camps working with the kids have been some of the highlights while being in Lafayette. Just like a kid I can be highly energetic or relaxed, I love to be outside and run around but I also enjoy being inside playing games or just chilling out. I like to think I’m great with kids but everyone knows you might run into a tantrum every once in a while. However I have two brothers and numerous cousins between all of them I can handle anything thrown at me.
