Hi there! My name is Kara and I’m 30 years old. Currently, I work as a full time professional nanny for a 1 year old girl! I have cared for children ranging from newborn (few days old) all the way up to middle school age with several years experience. The best qualities to describe me would be honest, outgoing, trustworthy, creative, and fun. I'm also CPR certified and first aid certified. In my spare time I like to spend time at the beach, spend time with friends, stay active, reading books, doing anything outdoors, or doing really anything to stay busy. Patience is key and children are my passion. I have also taken multiple classes regarding newborns, infants, and toddlers based upon safety, general care, and sleep conditioning!! Last but not least, I’m a certified advanced newborn care specialist, in a self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified postpartum doula, as well as another self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified pediatric sleep consultant! Hope to hear from you!

I have been a professional nanny in the past for 10 years and have been doing temporary nanny jobs for another 10 years, especially with infants and toddlers. I have babysitting experience since I was 12 years old with every kind of child you can imagine! I have two years of professional experience as a paraprofessional with autistic children. I have a degree in Art Therapy & most of a master’s degree in nutrition, can teach baby sign language & focus on Montessori style play, and I also have a diploma in Professional Massage Therapy. I have also taught ESL online to children in China! I’m vaccinated and boostered and CPR/First Aid certified. AKA, the baby whisperer, kids love me and I love kids! I’m currently available to create connections with families for the month of December 2024, one-time/short-term babysitting gigs or occasional overnights!! I’m super thrilled to meet you and your children!

Hi! My name is Riley Hatch and I am currently in nursing school at DDCC. I am a responsible, energetic, and intelligent student who has very big goals for herself! I have been working jobs since I was sixteen and I currently am certified as a nurse aide working in a long-term care facility, so i’m not afraid of hard work! Along with my nurse aide certification I also carry a CPR certification. My end career goal is to become a pediatric nurse in a children’s hospital! I don’t have much experience working with kids aside from one semester of babysitting two young girls (aged 2 & 3), volunteering with summer camps, and my local church’s vacation bible school. Although I lack the paid experience watching children some may have, I am a very responsible and attentive young adult who will take any job extremely seriously. I go above and beyond to make those around me happy and will go above and beyond to keep your children safe!

I have experience transitioning babies to solid food, starting walking, muscle training, and potty training.

Hello! I am a 35 year old professional loving life as a Nanny and Family Assistant! I have 15+ years of experience working directly with children ages 3 months-10 years, plus mentoring teens. My passions include music, art, cooking, gardening and the outdoors. I love finding creative activities to do with the children in my care that promote growth and self expression, and I love encouraging children to look at their surroundings to learn and discover new things. Whether that means going for a nature walk, cooking fresh picked veggies, or making a mess while we paint, I believe a child learns best when given the freedom to explore and ask questions in a safe and nurturing environment, and I love being part of that process! Training beyond my college degree includes a Child Development Certification, and I am CPR and First Aid certified.
