I am a junior at Auburn University and I am a nursing major and just started my upper division nursing classes! I have always loved being around children and have been working with them for quite a while. I went to a private high school that had a child care center and I worked there every week from my sophomore year to my senior year of high school! The age range of the child care center was 6 weeks to 3 years old. I also had around 15 families that I got to babysit/nanny for regularly until I left for college! I still get to babysit for them when I go home for breaks! Those ages ranged from newborn to 12 years old. In addition, I also got the opportunity to intern at the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta for a summer! I would describe myself as very calm and comforting! My goal is to provide reliable child care while also being a safe and loving space for children when their parents or guardians are not present! I strive to nurture and create fun memories for children while we are together and to create a peace of mind for parents while they are away from their children!

Hello! I am a responsible and caring college student with a strong passion for childcare. Growing up in a small town as the seventh of fourteen children, I naturally took on an active role in helping care for my younger siblings from an early age. My experience includes everything from diaper changes and meal preparation to supervising daily activities and ensuring a safe, positive environment throughout my childhood and teen years. In addition to my hands-on family experience, I am certified in First Aid and CPR and have worked as both a nurse aide and a lifeguard. These roles have strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure, prioritize safety, and respond quickly in emergency situations. I also have reliable transportation and my own vehicle. I am dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy supporting children’s growth and well-being. I look forward to the opportunity to provide safe, attentive, and nurturing care for your family.

I am a current college student at Auburn University and I absolutely love kids. Throughout my childhood and high school I was a dancer. In this role, I was often with and caring for younger children, including teaching young children during my 7th-8th years! While my paid experience involves hosting and waitressing, I am happiest when spending time with children. Through my time with cousins and family friends, I feel I am ready to take on the position of caretaker and babysitter.
