A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Valerie. I am a very friendly person. I love to sing and I swim competitively. I have 2 nieces and 2 nephews and I love little kids. I've done over 300 hours of volunteer babysitting in the past. I'm the youngest of 5 kids in my family and I'm graduating in May 2021. I am very responsible and have the experience and certifications necessary to take care of your kids. While I'm watching kids, I try to avoid tv and electronics. We play a lot of imaginary games, dance, cook, and color. I also have experience with special needs children. I've done over 3 years of peer tutoring and my mom was a school nurse for 10 years and taught me some important things. I also did very well in school and I've tutored before so I can help with any homework. I'm so excited to meet you! :)

A little bit about me

I come from a very family oriented background and grew up with three younger sisters, so being around kids has always been a big part of my life. Right now I’m working toward becoming a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) because I’m passionate about supporting kids in positive ways and helping them feel safe, confident, and encouraged to be themselves.
I love keeping kids engaged through things like reading, imaginative play, and spending time outdoors. Outside of work, I enjoy camping, exploring nature, and taking care of my plants. I also love learning new things! I code as a hobby, enjoy traveling, and have a growing interest in language studies (especially French and Russian).
I’m originally from Minnesota, very and a big animal lover so pets are always a bonus!

A little bit about me

I grew up in a big family, (I have 20+ younger cousins) so l've been watching kids since I was a child myself.
But I didn't start professionally babysitting until I was 14. Since then I've volunteered with daycares for children with Down syndrome and autism, which taught me how to adapt to a child's specific needs.
Outside of Nannying I am a part time student at SLCC. I take all online classes so my schedule is completely flexible. One class in particular that l'm taking is Nutrition, which has taught me how to make healthy meals. I spend most of my time outside, skiing, hiking, and camping. When it's allowed I love to take children out on activities, it's good to get them moving (plus it tires them out!).

"Lucy was so great with our twins. She was always on time and prepared, helped with homework and carpooling, and always got the kids to bed early! We have since moved to California, but our kids still ask about Lucy all the time!"

A little bit about me

Hello, Families! My name is Madison i’m 25. I simply love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage of their young lives. My strengths as a nanny are that I am very responsible, reliable and caring person. I am passionate about furthering my time in the Nanny field so that I can continue doing what I love and broadening my experiences. I have experience in many areas of caring. I have 4 children of my own and 1 Step, so I am excellent with children and babies and always treat them like they are my own. I have a natural way with children and they always enjoy me as much as I enjoy them. I have also been a housekeeper for several families who have loved my work (some still ask if I'll come back).

A little bit about me

Hello Everyone !
My name is Tobeb Mochimaru and I am 22 years old.

I have always taken a proactive approach with all the children who have been placed under my care. I understand the importance in separating behavior from child, and setting balanced boundaries.
I also understand the importance of being a kid and giving children the space to do that. My care promotes a screen free time that allows children to use their imagination, and engage in enrichment activities such as painting, coloring, reading, and storytime (with puppets). In the past I have always enjoyed (if parents are comfortable) planning trips to the library, aquarium, and museum. If this sounds like what your family is looking for in a nanny then I am look forward to meeting with you :)!
