Hi! My name is Merritt :) I am a recent graduate from Butler University with a BS in Biochemistry and a minor in Healthcare Administration. I am currently taking a gap year while applying to medical schools with goals to pursue a career as a physician scientist specializing in pediatric oncology. I am passionate about providing children with safe, joyful, and nurturing care. I have spent the last 7 years working with children of all ages--from newborns to teenagers-- and multiples (up to four children at any one time, including nanny share) as well as children with both medical and developmental special needs. My background working and volunteering in healthcare and childcare allows me to approach every situation with a level-head, confidence, and compassion. I am EMT-B trained as well as certified in CPR/First-Aid and "Stop the Silence" CSA prevention. I am happy to assist with meal prep, light cleaning, laundry, errands, and pet care. I love the outdoors, animals, crafts, puzzles, and creating hands-on activities that spark curiosity and creativity in kids. I am always looking for a long-term opportunity with a family who values warmth, structure, and strong communication; I am open to overnight positions (with negotiable rates). Please reach out with any questions--I'd love to learn more about your family's needs!

I am a very loving person, I am energetic, active and creative and very patient. You can count on me to be there in times of emergencies and last minute needs of childcare. I am trustworthy and can ensure that your child will be always in a safe environment, and treated as I would my very own, if I had any children. I enjoy learning kids many different personlities and interest, and I am always open to new adventures or unique styles of play and fun. I love to laugh, really laugh and will do whatever it takes to get the kid to smile and have the best time they deserve and should as often as possible. They are our future and have so many great talents that should be given the chance to show as much as they or willing to express themselves. Yolanda

I am 34 years old. I have cumulatively about 10 years of nannying/babysitting experience. In highschool at the age of 16, I babysat and took care of my baby and toddler cousin on a part-time basis. In college, I was an after-school nanny caring for a 6-year old and driving/taking her to activities. I had a full-time position caring for a 10-month and homeschooling a 4-year old. I have worked with special needs children. I have managed a household. I have worked with several twin toddler families on an as-needed basis. I have done overnight care for an infant. I have watched as many as 5 children at once. I have professional teaching and tutoring experience. I play tennis and violin. I promote enriching activities for children. I'm sort of a germaphobe so I am very good about being clean and keeping things clean! I am a non-smoker. I do have a college degree. I will care for your children as if they were my own.
