With over 30 years of hands-on experience nurturing children of all ages, I bring a lifelong passion and natural gift for childcare. Affectionately known as “The Baby Whisperer,” I have an intuitive ability to connect with infants and young children—creating joyful, engaging, and enriching environments wherever I go. Children are naturally drawn to me, and I truly speak their language—whether I’m soothing a newborn, connecting with a toddler, or helping a preschooler learn through play. I am currently work with children with special needs ranging in age from 3 to 26, as well as supporting 4th and 5th graders in school settings. These roles have strengthened my ability to provide individualized, compassionate care while fostering confidence and independence in each child. I’ve had the privilege of nannying for two wonderful families and raising my own children while being a stay-at-home mom for over 36 years. Caring for children doesn’t feel like work—it’s what brings me joy and purpose. I love to sing with children, do arts and crafts, and play both indoor and outdoor games. I weave learning into everyday activities—teaching letters, shapes, colors, and phonics in playful, creative ways. Time outside is one of my favorite things, whether we’re exploring nature, playing in the dirt (when allowed!), or enjoying movement and fresh air. I also have experience teaching swimming and helping children feel confident and safe in the water. I’ve completed 12 units in Early Childhood Development and am currently pursuing a degree in Child Development, giving me a strong foundation in how children grow, learn, and thrive. I’m also pursuing studies in Physical Education to support motor development and encourage active, healthy lifestyles. Highlights: 30+ years caring for children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens Experience with children with special needs (ages 3–26) and elementary school students College coursework in Child Development CPR/First Aid certified Passionate about music, creative arts, outdoor play, and learning through fun Open to roles as a nanny, caregiver, or “bonus grandma” My Philosophy: Children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged. My goal is to create joyful, structured spaces where they feel free to explore, grow, and become the amazing individuals they’re meant to be.

Hi there! My name is Ava. I am 19 years old. I am a young adult looking for work to help support myself for my future as a new adult, as well as my family. I love working with children because I've always wanted to be a mother, but unfortunately I may not get to be which is why I have grown a strong passion to babysit as my occupation as I am out of school and have a lot of time on my hands. I am extremely empathetic and skilled as far as connecting with children, making them feel safe/nurtured, and maintaining responsibilities that come with them. I can cook well and clean very efficiently. I have been babysitting my little cousins since I was very young. I also have helped my best friend babysit kids from her work. I do have experience with taking care of children with special needs. I currently nanny for two toddlers, an 8 year old, and an 11 year old. I have lots of patience and an extremely flexible schedule since I am graduated and not currently enrolled in college. I will be willing to satisfy any/all needs for your child(ren), even running errands and transporting as needed. As well as patience, I have lots of energy to keep me on my feet and on top of responsibilities, maintenances, duties, etc. I am new to this app, but everyone starts somewhere and you won't regret hiring me. :)
