Hello there, my name is Natalya Byrd. I have been in and out of childcare for about five years now. After graduating high school I found a passion working with kids during Covid people around my neighborhood would ask for a babysitter, I even became a nanny at one point. When I went to school, I started studying behavioral science now I have graduated with my associates degree. After that, I decided to work in daycare’s specializing in behavior and I loved it. Right now I’m looking to take a little break from daycare’s. The reason why I love working with children is because you can guide them on the right path. What do I mean by that? If they make a wrong decision, I can explain to them why it was bad and show them a different route next time. I can teach them new things they probably didn’t know before.

My name is Lisa. I started babysitting In high school after moving to the USA and a licenced care giver in Pennsylvania while in college . Babysitting was the first step I took towards learning about my new home in the United States. Working with/for a family was a major factor as why I became a biology and child psychology. My dream was to become a behavior analyst for Autisic children. I worked as both a private care companion and as memory care activities coordinator in a nursing home. However post graduation I began working as a logistics care coordinator for an emergency management group . This position focused and nurtured mypassion in working with both adults and children in a highly stressful in environment. Outside of my profession I still enjoy babysitting children and being a care companion for the elderly. I believe there is something magical in seeing the world from children eyes or the life stories of an elder.
