A little bit about me

Hi families! I’m Kacie, a Philadelphia based nanny and artist. I love working with children of all ages, spending time outdoors, and being creative!

I'd describe myself as patient, caring, and positive. I approach children with a firm but calm demeanor and focus largely on helping them develop skills like confidence and independence. I also put lots of focus on keeping kids active and exercising their creativity.

I have been nannying full time since June 2021. I started working with kids when I was in high school as a babysitter and summer camp counselor.

I’m currently looking for a new family to work with 30-40 hours per week and am available starting July 28th!

Hi! My name is Avery Smith, I’m 22 years old, and I would love the opportunity to be your nanny. As an older sister and a full-time banker, I’m responsible, patient, and dependable. I’ve been around children my whole life—my mom is a teacher, and I grew up learning from her nurturing environment. I also taught kids how to swim for four years, which strengthened my ability to keep children safe while making learning fun. I look forward to creating a caring and positive space for your little ones!

A little bit about me

Hello! I am a childcare professional with many years of experience with kids of all ages and in different environments.
I have a BA in Psychology and a Master's in Education from Northeastern University.
My first job was as a teacher in a 4th/5th grade classroom. Later, I worked as an art teacher for ages 3-12 at a Montessori School.
I spent summers as a nanny for a family with two children ages 2 and 4. I moved in with them after I left the Montessori school to help take care of the kids, and to help welcome and care for their third baby on the way. I lived with them for 2 years, caring for the youngest from the day she was born until she was almost 2 years old.
My childcare philosophy is grounded in structure and consistency. This does not mean no fun! I love imaginative play and creative projects, but at the end of the day, my job is to keep kids safe and to give them a structure they understand so they can thrive.
