A little bit about me

Hello! I am 33 years old and I have over 13 years nanny experience with impeccable references. I have worked for families from all backgrounds and many different situations. I have experience with ages birth and up. I am an extremly active person and your kids would never be sitting in front of a TV. I enjoy everything about the outside and all seasons. I also love to sit inside, read a book or play some games. I'm creative and love crafts. I am naturally nurturing. I think my references will speak volumes on who I am and what I'm able to bring.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Oliver Gottlieb (she/her), I’m 18 years old and have been mother’s helping and babysitting since age 10 in my hometown of Whitefield, ME. Most of my experience is babysitting, less full time nannying but I have done three days a week with one family, twice a week with another, etc etc! I have considerably more experience than what I’ve written here on this app but most of it wouldn’t really be considered nannying. The one I did write out was for a girl I watched from age 4-11. Once the pandemic hit we began private art lessons over Zoom! She’s now 12 and we play video games occasionally, again through zoom.

I’ve worked with all ages and sat up to 7 children (with the help of a friend). All of my qualifications are written in depth on my resume which I am more than open to sending over email. I’m certified in hands-only CPR although I will not lie that has probably expired at this point!
Thank you for reading! Email, message or text me if you’d like to talk more :)
