A little bit about me

I have 5 years experience as a nanny, 1 year of experience as a Certified Nurse's Assistant and I was Honorably Discharged from the Navy after 5 years. I am currently working on my Medical Assitant license. I enjoy outdoor activities, crafts, and lots of reading! My one request is that I am matched with a family that doesn't mind me bringing my 1.5 year old son with me. I am currently trying to save money and can't afford child care at the moment while I work and take college courses.

A little bit about me

Hi there my name is Mariah. I am seeking to find a family to care for in the Hampton Rd area. I am committed to being a responsible trustworthy individual for you and your family, and I can alter my schedule to meet your needs. I can take care of date night supervising, after school care, meal prep, feeding, diaper changing, bathing, and light house work. I am also comfortable working with sick children. I have years of experience working with children of all different ages from newborn up until 10 years old. I also have a little experience working with children with disabilities as my little sister has Tourette's and is on the autism spectrum and I babysat for a little boy that was non-verbal. I do have experience in teaching kids age 5-11 how to swim as I was a swim instructor for the YMCA for about a year and a half . I hope I am the right fit for your family and would be glad to meet and answer any questions you may have. If you liked to contact me shoot me a message.

A little bit about me

Sweet, caring, responsible, and a great cook, I treat the children in my care as my own. I am a bilingual professional nanny with over 7 years of experience caring for children from newborns up to 12 years old.
Spanish is my first language, and I love teaching it to the children I care for through games, songs, and daily interaction (if preferred by the parents).
I naturally lean toward gentle parenting, focusing on empathy and patience, but I am always respectful and adaptable to your family’s preferred parenting style.
Raised on a farm, I absolutely love outdoor activities and nature. I am also an avid home baker, so I love planning fun, hands-on, and creative activities for kids.
I am the proud mother of a sweet 1-year-old boy, Samuel. For my next position, I am looking for a family that is comfortable with me bringing him along. This is a wonderful opportunity for our children to socialize, learn to share, and grow together in a warm, interactive environment!
