NOW SEEKING FULL TIME EMPLOYMENT STARTING JANUARY 2026 Hi! I’m Ashley, I’m 24 and I’m an aspiring pediatrician. The road to getting my MD has been long but working in childcare has been a powerful constant in my life. Starting my professional childcare journey in the summer of 2020, I have gained a multitude of experience with children of all ages. My specialty is newborn and infant care. I work closely with first time parents to not only ease their mind as they navigate the early life of their new addition, but welcome a caregiver into their home for the first time as well. I have extensive knowledge of infant milestones and experience with sleep training, bottle feeding, the transition to solid foods, and the development of motor skills. I have a structured, developmental, and empathetic approach to childcare that I work to improve every day. I am well versed with essential tasks such as maintaining routines, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I have experience with tutoring and online learning assistance. I love to teach as much as I love to learn, but I also enjoy fun activities such as in/outdoor games and crafts. I constantly encourage creativity and imagination! I’m always up for a trip out and about. I have experience transporting children in my own reliable vehicle as well as family cars, so I am quite comfortable with car seat installation. I am CPR/First Aid certified, with extensive knowledge of pediatric medical emergencies. Working in childcare has been such a privilege in my life and I look forward to building more bonds! All the best, Ashley Bailey

Kaitlyn is a wonderful care giver, she is very punctual and professional, she takes the time to get to know her charges and adjust her approach accordingly, She asks questions about dietary restrictions and allergy concerns before agreeing to take on a family as clients. She is very helpful with the children’s academics, helping with them with homework assignments and even tutoring and reviewing their school work. Sha is awesome!

Our family recently had a gathering with 8-10 children swimming in the pool, and we were incredibly grateful to have Jade providing supervision. She was exceptionally attentive to all the children, constantly scanning the pool and ensuring everyone was safe. Her communication was excellent; while we prepared for the event. We felt completely at ease knowing the children were under her watchful eye. We highly recommend Jade for her responsible and effective childcare!

I am Ty’Rielle, but most children like to call me Miss Ty. I have experience with infants, toddlers and school age children. I love to help practice and witness essential milestones in a child life. From rolling over to crawling, from taking first steps to recognizing animal sounds, from counting to 10 to recognizing colors, I enjoy being a light to younger children by investing my time and knowledge into our next generation. I want to serve as a familiar face to your family and create a warm and welcoming environment for your children to thrive.

I enjoy taking care of kids but also with helping around within the house such as laundry or cleaning around. I have been taking care of kids for 3 years now. I am currently interning at a daycare with children from infants to 5 year olds. I enjoy kids as they bring a peace in me, and allow me to feel like a kid with them but while being responsible and being aware of what’s going around them. I am comfortable with pets as I have two fur babies of my own. I can also pet sit if needed.

Katie is fantastic and has been so great with our son! We have had her for a few years now to help with our son afterschool and she always keeps him engaged, helps with his homework, and became someone he really enjoyed seeing consistently. We loved having her and would recommend to any family for babysitting/nanny needs. Unfortunately, school schedule did not align for this upcoming year for us.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mahlet, and I can confidently say she is an exceptional sitter. From the moment we met, Mahlet was warm, kind, and extremely professional. She took the time to listen carefully during our initial meeting and followed all the instructions for caring for my 7-year-old son, who is neurodivergent. Her attentiveness, calm presence, and natural ability to connect made a world of difference. What stood out most to me was how genuinely present she was with my son. She met him exactly where he was—emotionally, socially, and developmentally. Her intuition and empathy were evident in the way she engaged with him, showing incredible patience and care without being solely performative. These are qualities that matter deeply when working with children, who can often sense when someone is truly “with” them versus simply managing them. My son—who is not quick to form attachments—was VERY tearful and begged for Mahlet to return. It felt like watching his first real heartbreak. Kids are natural feelers, and his reaction said everything: he felt seen, safe, and valued. I saw it too—Mahlet is simply a good person, and that shines through in her work. If you're looking for someone who brings professionalism, emotional intelligence, and genuine compassion—Mahlet is an absolute rare find. We are so grateful to have connected with her.
