A little bit about me

My name is Blessing, I am currently 18 years old, and ai enjoy taking care of and working with children! Its amazing watching them exist in such a state of curiousity and wonder in a world that has hurt most of us deeply. Helping influence such young minds to be positive, caring, and kind in a world like this is all i strive to do.

Children can teach grown ups too! And i hope to learn all i can from the young ones to also make my life better. Its incredible how much change a child can bring into your life, whether they notice it or not.

I also want to help parents that need it. Raising a child is hard, and im willing to do anything i can to help the process run as smoothly as possible.

I am 24 years old. I am 1 of 7 and babysat my 4 younger siblings and helping my older brother who has mental disabilities. I also used to babysit a lot throughout my my life. I am a para educator, for over 3 years now. So I am completely open to working with special needs.

I love art, outdoors, and cooking. I love to leave a place cleaner than I found it. I also have a 16 month old boy that I would hope could come to work when his dad Is on shift as a firefighter.

A little bit about me

I am a young woman who loves kids. I was recently evacuated from the Peace Corps, where I was being trained how to teach English as a second language. Unfortunately, due to COVID, I was evacuated after 2.5 months. Before Peace Corps, I worked as a personal trainer for all age groups. I have worked with a wide variety of clients and am a flexible and caring person.

A little bit about me

My family is originally from the islands, though I was raised in Washington State. Caring for children has always been a true passion of mine—I find so much joy in supporting their growth and being a positive, nurturing presence in their lives. I’ve studied child development for many years and have hands-on experience working with children of all ages, including those on the autism spectrum and those with behavioral challenges.
I am currently seeking a live-in nanny position and am available to relocate as soon as possible. I’m especially interested in returning to the islands, where I hope to reconnect with my roots, my family, and continue doing the work I love.
