A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Ryan. I’m 25 years old and live locally. I attended college for several years studying psychology, sociology, history, film, communication, and English before deciding to step away and pursue a different path.

I’ve worked four summers at two different Christian camps from May through mid-August. In those roles, I supervised and mentored kids of various ages, helped lead activities, kept schedules on track, and made sure everyone stayed safe and engaged throughout the day.

I’ve been a competitive runner for most of my life and also compete in sprint swimming, so I’m very active and enjoy spending time outdoors. I’m dependable, family-oriented, and comfortable taking responsibility. I’d love the opportunity to support a family and create a safe, positive environment for their children.

A little bit about me

Howdy! I’m Mikayla, I’m 23 and I love kids. I have 2 kids of my own so if I was able to bring them with me that would be a bonus! They are up to date on vaccinations and so am I! I know for a lot of moms and dads it can be scary leaving your children with someone you don’t entirely know. I’ve been there and I am currently there! I love seeing children grow, learn and experience the environment around them so not only would it be an honor to help them grow and learn but to also be a reliable and safe person you can trust around your child!

A little bit about me

Hello,


Hello! My name is Heaven, and I’m currently finishing my last year of undergrad. I am actively seeking a full-time or part-time nanny position, where I can continue to provide the same level of care and attention that has made me successful in the past. Throughout my experience, I have worked with children of all age groups, from infants to adolescents, as well as adults and children with special needs.

I pride myself on being an empathetic, caring, and nurturing individual, qualities that I believe are essential when working with children and families. Whether it's helping with homework, engaging in play, or providing emotional support, I always strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I understand that every child is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs, whether they need extra attention, structured routines, or creative activities.

I look forward to working with you and your children!
