Tami L.
- 20 years paid experience

Hi, My name is Tami. I've been able to have the opportunity to have had a variety of experiences which has allowed for a wide range of skill sets. Along with a wide range of skill sets, my age has allowed for maturity and patience. I started babysitting at the age of 11 and carried this through into several Nanny jobs while in college. If you are seeking the occasional date night, please do reach out. Flexible and available. Trust me your kiddos will be well care for. I have had the opportunity of teaching in a preschool/toddler classroom for about 20 years (in total), also spending time in the infant room and my favorite the toddler classrooms! Those classrooms were integrated with special need programs as well. Classroom experiences encourage variety, quick thinking and spontaneity. Previous positions were demanding which homed in on skills of being capable to multitask and the ability to handle almost any type of emergency. If you are needing a "house manager" along with childcare, I am confident we can work that out as well. I think you will find my skills, my personality and my enjoyment of being around children as an asset. I do currently have my certification for Early Education. Easy to work with. Looking forward to talking with you and will provide more information when needed. Currently CPR and First Aid Certified. References are available upon request

Heyy, I’m Richeylie! I’m 19 and Afro-Latina. I’m super outgoing and love being around kids they always seem to vibe with me cause I’m playful but also know how to be responsible. I like keeping them busy with fun stuff, helping with whatever they need, and just making sure they feel safe and happy. I’m big on good energy so I try to bring that around all the time. Being a nanny isn’t just about watching kids for me it’s about being someone they can look up to and have fun with while making life easier for the parents too.

As a young teenager, I babysat my next door neighbors children. A young boy and toddling girl. I babysat for them close to 7 or 8 years. I enjoyed playing outside with them and going on long walks. They each had their favorite activities, the boy playing with train tracks, and the girl was to read books and color in her favorite coloring books. As they grew up they started to become self reliant and were into out of the home sports and activities while I wasn’t able to provide them with transportation. I don’t babysit for them anymore but still have a great relationship with the family!
