Hello! My name is Perla, I am 20 currently in my second year of college studying nursing. I am very energetic, kind and I have a really positive attitude! I genuinely love caring and helping kids and people. I grew up taking care of my little sisters and helping my mom with the kids she took care of. Ive been volunteering at my church’s daycare since I was 13. I’ve also volunteered at a middle school and highschool when I was in junior and senior year. I had my first job at a daycare when I was 15, and I currently work with middle schoolers and high schoolers in a program. I have a certified nurse assistant/aide and I also have an emergency medical responder certification. I am bilingual and speak fluent Spanish. I am so exited and ready to create a fun, safe and supportive environment! You can text me at 6125981701 if that’s easier too!!

Hello, My name is Janette Dukowitz and I am 24 years old. I recently completed my Bachelor's in Criminal Justice and am in search of positions regarding this field but have found myself still thinking about what I would like to do. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified since June 2022 and am recently certified as an Emergency Medical Responder as of May 2023. I like to keep things tidy and would not mind doing chores, etc. I have enjoyed taking care of my baby niece Ivani and many of my cousin's children. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to ask away.

I am 19 years old and I am currently employed at Children of Hope Preschool in Ramsey. I am in the process of getting my CDA (child development associate credential) I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have a reliable vehicle and a clean driving record. I’ve been babysitting for about 3 years, experienced in ages 0-11 and working at the preschool for 2 years now! I love to sing songs, play outside, and go on adventures!

After my "journalism" career (too many ad agencies and a faltering book industry), I began working with children, the elderly, and pets. Being a trusted, reliable presence in their lives provides a life balance that I enjoy, and utilizing a care provider with a good attitude is beneficial for everyone involved. For a few years (until I broke my arm skiing on too much ice), I worked part-time as a CNA (Cert. Nursing Assistant), but began spending more time as a substitute for teachers and paraprofessionals in local schools. When Covid came along, I teamed up with a family who wanted to keep a close watch on safety for their premature baby. I was lucky to find a temporary position that allowed me to return to this family to care for their second child, who is now in pre-school (I still babysit on their "date nights." I have raised two sons, one diagnosed with ADHD and the other with Asperger Syndrome (a high-functioning form of autism), conditions that often swim in the same genetic pool. I played on their strengths when offering activity choices to them, and today they are both doing well as young adults following their own career paths. When my children were very young, I taught Sunday school to grade-school-aged children while running a licensed in-home childcare center. I love to do individual outdoor activities that match the weather, although walking my shared Corgi must happen regardless of temperature or precipitation. I tend to eat very well -- my goal is to retain as much of my physical, spiritual, and mental health as possible. I love sharing this knowledge with little ones and helping them to grow into who they were meant to become.

I have 10 years of babysitting experience, caring for infants to school age children. Beyond childcare, I can assist with cooking, cleaning, laundry, and homework help. I have first aid training and received certifications while working as a special needs paraprofessional. I also have my own car.

Hi families! I am a recent graduate from the University of San Diego, now living back at home in MN until grad school. I was a communication major but looking to go into Speech Pathology post-grad. I have 7 years of experience babysitting but also have a brother with pretty severe special needs, so I have always been a caretaker in some way! I love being interactive and doing fun activities. Can't wait to meet your family!

I have nannied and babysat for many families over the past 10 years! Most families I have sat for, are regular basis. I am cpr/aed and first aid certified. I have over 5 years of professional childcare under my belt as well! I’m very fun and playful, so I can be the perfect buddy for your little one!

Hello, my name is Jaylie Osborn. I have 6 plus years of experience in childcare, and I can provide references if you need it. I am able to help with Light Housekeeping, meal prep, and Laundry. I am currently attending NAU and am planning on joining the nursing program here. My current classes are only Tuesday and Thursday, from the hours of 8am- 12:45pm so they shouldn't interfere based on the weekdays you have listed. I do have a car and am able to give rides if needed (Ford Escape). I love working with kids and I have grown comfortable doing so due to all my prior experience. I am very interactive and can also give homework help if needed. Right now I do have a job that I work three days a week but my availability is adjustable so I can change my schedule around based on days you would want me. Additionally, as far as right now I know I'm only available up till may due to my lease, and I know I may be gone for around 2 weeks in December- January.

Hello, my name is Amanda, and I am 19 years old! I am currently looking for my first job and I think that nannying would be perfect! I love being around kids and want to help develop them into becoming kind and confident people. I do not have paid experience, but I do have 3 nieces and 1 nephew ranging in ages from 9-months old to 6 years old, whom I've babysat before. Together we color, make up games, go outside, read, and do fun things that kids love. I was also a camp counselor for a week during the summer for 4 years. There I would lead a group of campers through a daily schedule of fun activities and facilitate a safe environment. I have a lot of experience with cleaning and doing chores, so I have no problem with doing that! What sets me apart is my positive outlook and passion for making a difference. I not only want to be a nanny, but I also want to be an extension of your family and someone who you can always count on!
