I am a stay at home mom to a beautiful 15 month old girl. She loves other children so childcare has been a great way for me to make money and still be able to care for her. My home is set up both outside and inside for safe play so I can watch children at my house or yours. While it is expired now I have taken cpr classes and have experience with children of all ages. I can of course provide excellent references upon request.

Hi! I'm Camille - Cami for short. I'm a patient, reliable, and curious caregiver who takes on the world with curiosity, structure, and intention. You can find me enjoying music, dance, sketching, or even strategic games like chess. Because I love expression, creativity, and problem-solving, I naturally gravitate toward integrating these elements into my work, creating a stable and fun environment. You can think of me as your family's capable, proactive partner. I manage everything from meal prep and organization to running errands, coordinating complex schedules, and providing reliable care during family travel and overnights. Most importantly, I prioritize clear communication and care deeply about the families I work with. I bring reliability and intention, adapt easily to your family's needs, and look forward to meeting your family and supporting your home!

Hi! I’m Christina, and childcare has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started babysitting at just 10 years old and quickly became the “family babysitter” for all of my cousins, nieces, nephews, and family friends. Over the years, I’ve cared for so many children that I’ve honestly lost count! I also helped my sister raise my nephew, giving me hands-on experience with everything from infant care to supporting kids through different stages of growth. I genuinely love kids and have a natural ability to connect with them, keep them engaged, and create a safe, comforting environment. I’ve been CPR and First Aid certified multiple times in the past, and while my certification isn’t currently up to date, I’m familiar with safety procedures. I also attended nursing school in college and completed all but one year before I had to step away, which provided me with valuable medical and developmental knowledge that I apply in childcare. I’m patient, responsible, and passionate about helping children feel supported and cared for. I’d love the opportunity to be a reliable, positive presence for your family.

Hello! I have cared for many children since the age of nine when I started as a “mother’s helper.” From there began my love for working with infants/children of all ages. At 13 I began nannying for a wonderful family whose children, (I feel so lucky to say), still bring joy to my life today. I continued working for them and several other families throughout the years and continued schooling while also dabbling in the music world and maintaining a career as a freelance make up artist. It seemed no matter what I was doing in life, somehow, there were always kiddos! So I chose to focus on becoming a full-time caregiver in support of families staying organized in order to maintain their own household flow as they seem fit . With a little love and attention while working as a team, anything is possible! Please feel free to reach out and chat to see if I may be a good fit for you and your family. I look forward to sharing much more, and have multiple references available upon request! *I consider myself nurturing, kind, honest, reliable and fun. And getting to watch children grow has and will always be a beautiful privilege for me. * Special needs experience * Several references and full resume request
