My name is Crystal. I am 40 years young with lots of time in childcare. I have two grown young men both looking into being in the arts. One loves music and making sounds. The other a graphic arts designer. As high schooler, I took Child Development because I've always loved children. I would say I want ten however, I was only able to have two. I am looking to foster a child and adopt. I was adopted at two weeks old so I learned to love unconditionally at an early age. I love to teach. I took seven years of Spanish in school and I'm refreshing as I continue to teach. I'm also learning sign language. I have numerous clock hours and CPR training from my current and previous jobs. My goal is to open my own center and retire watching all my babies grow in productive and respectful individuals. I AM VERY COVID CAUTIOUS! My son is diabetic and lives at home.

Hi my name is patience! I’m 18 and in my freshman year of college for psychology. I have younger siblings and have always been very active in my church nursery which has made me love kids. I love being a sitter because I feel like I can make a difference on these kids lives and love getting to watch them grow up! I have about 8 years of experience but only 2 years as a nanny. I am cpr/first aid certified! I used to clean houses with my mom so I can do housekeeping. I have pet care experience, I’m great at cooking and baking. I have a reliable car and can take kids anywhere you’d need!

Hi families! 💕 As of now, I’m available for overnights Mon-Sun, late evenings, & Sat-Sun mornings. I’m also available for date nights & occasional babysitting. I’m so excited to connect with you! I’m currently a substitute teacher & absolutely love working w/kids—helping them learn, grow & have fun in a safe, caring environment. I bring patience, creativity & a positive attitude every day, whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside or learning something new. I’d love to support a family looking for an overnight/late evening nanny, babysitter or someone to call for date nights. I’m dependable, engaging & genuinely invested in children’s well-being. I’m lovable, energetic & love to have fun! I have a 10 yr old myself who brings me so much joy & happiness, so I know the ins & outs of caring for kids. I currently substitute when teachers call off, which allows me to work my own schedule, but I’m looking for stability—something FT or PT in the same field. I’m looking to be your perfect nanny since I already have advanced experience. I’d love to spend my time watching, caring for & teaching kids. I have experience watching 2 kids over the summer until they got older, & I can provide their family as a reference. I also love helping the elderly in my community & volunteering. I took a Child Development class in high school in 2013. After graduating, I worked as a Direct Support Professional & Personal Care Attendant helping individuals w/disabilities. Throughout the yrs, I’ve earned Mandt Training, CPR & First Aid, Substitute Teaching & Med Level 1. These certificates are currently active & I can provide proof. Caring for kids & adults isn’t just a job to me—it’s my passion. ❤️ When I was younger, I participated in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. I graduated from the program & currently volunteer. I’ve also kept a connection w/my mentor, who was my Big Sister when I was younger. She is now a lawyer & can provide a great professional character reference for me. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, I’d be so happy to chat more! 😊
