I am a junior at Auburn University and I am a nursing major and just started my upper division nursing classes! I have always loved being around children and have been working with them for quite a while. I went to a private high school that had a child care center and I worked there every week from my sophomore year to my senior year of high school! The age range of the child care center was 6 weeks to 3 years old. I also had around 15 families that I got to babysit/nanny for regularly until I left for college! I still get to babysit for them when I go home for breaks! Those ages ranged from newborn to 12 years old. In addition, I also got the opportunity to intern at the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta for a summer! I would describe myself as very calm and comforting! My goal is to provide reliable child care while also being a safe and loving space for children when their parents or guardians are not present! I strive to nurture and create fun memories for children while we are together and to create a peace of mind for parents while they are away from their children!

I am a current college student at Auburn University and I absolutely love kids. Throughout my childhood and high school I was a dancer. In this role, I was often with and caring for younger children, including teaching young children during my 7th-8th years! While my paid experience involves hosting and waitressing, I am happiest when spending time with children. Through my time with cousins and family friends, I feel I am ready to take on the position of caretaker and babysitter.

Hi! My name is Journey! I am a Junior Marine Biology Student at Auburn University! I have loved working with kids for 8 years now from babysitting to working as a day camp counselor at the YMCA. I love getting to build a connection and help littles be successful whether that be with school, friends, or with self confidence!! I also work at a Vet clinic and have been for the past year, so if you have pets I am well equipped to care for them as well. I have worked with ages newborn to over 12, and up to 25 kids on my own at times. I am certified in CPR as well as first aid and have recently redone my training as of this summer. While working my summer camp I led crafts, activities, observed play and swim, and helped settle minor to severe emergencies. I would love to join your family and help out when needed!

I've been caring for children for over seven years and have experience with all ages, from toddlers to teens. I've worked as both a full-time nanny and babysitter, supporting families with daily routines, homework help, and creative projects that keep kids curious and engaged. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I helped families balance childcare and at-home learning, bringing structure, patience, and positivity to each day. llove creating an environment where kids can learn, imagine, and feel cared for. I enjoy helping with school projects, planning crafts, and finding activities that make each day fun and stimulating. I also take pride in helping parents feel supported, whether that means coming home to a tidy house, dinner started, or the little things already taken care of. My goal is always to support not just the kids I work with, but the whole family in a way that makes life feel easier and brighter.

I have first aid skills, i can swim, i am willing to call the correct authorities if needed.
