A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Naomi! I’m a college student with a passion for working with children. I’ve been in child care for 3 years, including as an instructional assistant at RISD’s after-school program, working with kids of all ages, including those with special needs. I truly enjoy being a positive mentor in a child’s life. In addition, I’ve worked as a receptionist in an emergency room, developing strong communication, organizational skills, and the ability to stay calm in emergencies. I’m CPR certified and ready to respond if needed. Bilingual in Spanish and English, I’m able to connect with a wider range of families. I love activities like hide and seek, board games, crafts, and music, and my goal is to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment. I’m excited to meet your family and hope to make a lasting, positive impact with my care and attention. Looking forward to meeting you soon!

A little bit about me

Hi I’m Lauren! Looking for a family to nanny for! I have some weird availability right now as I am juggling being a grad student while working. I am available on Mondays, Wednesday mornings, Thursday afternoons, and Friday mornings . I am currently in my 2nd semester of SLP grad school at UTD (after a detour to Kansas City for ministry school). I grew up in a house with lots of siblings (five) including one with special needs. I have been babysitting and nannying since I was 10 years old. I am a certified medical assistant and CPR/first aid/lifeguard certified. I have nannied for several families before and have made long term connections - every family I have "worked" for has become family to me as well! I like building long term connections and providing consistent support in every aspect of family life. I am comfortable around all ages, backgrounds, and abilities and I would love to nanny for you!

A little bit about me

As a retired military police officer with combat medic training, I’ve built a career rooted in discipline, compassion, and service with a touch of “herding cats” experience thrown in. After leaving the military, I pursued a degree in early childhood education, combining my love for structure with my passion for nurturing young minds. As the oldest of three siblings and a parent to one child, I’ve spent my life preparing for chaos management also known as raising kids and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I bring a unique blend of skills to childcare. My military background has made me reliable, disciplined, and ready for anything whether it’s a tantrum or a mysterious stain. My combat medic training means I stay calm in emergencies and can handle scraped knees or surprise illnesses without breaking a sweat. I understand the importance of creating a loving, safe, and structured environment where kids thrive.

A little bit about me

I have been taking care of kids since I was about 12 years old. After college, I was a full time nanny for about 8 years for two different families. I took some time off to raise my own kids, and have been working part time as a High School Spanish teacher at Lucas Christian Academy, and in the child center at Lifetime Fitness. I'm looking for something to supplement my part time teacher job.
