I’m a caring, patient, and dependable mom with hands-on experience caring for and working with children of different ages and needs. I’ve worked with special education preschoolers as well as elementary-aged students, and I truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel comfortable in their environment. As a mom of twins, I’m also very familiar with the unique routines, organization, and patience that come with caring for multiples. I became a parent at a young age, which gave me years of real-life experience and a genuine passion for caring for children and supporting other families. I especially love working with young children and babies. While I have less professional experience with infants, I’m comfortable learning your child’s routines and am always willing to follow your instructions and preferences. In addition to childcare, I can help with tutoring and homework, light cleaning and tidying, meal/snack preparation, and running errands when needed. My goal is not only to keep your children safe and cared for, but to make your life a little easier while you’re away. I’m someone who understands that every child and every family is different. I’m happy to communicate with parents, follow established routines, and provide the patience, attention, and care your children deserve. I would love the opportunity to become someone your family can feel comfortable and confident trusting with your little ones.

Hi! My name is Jacinta, and I recently graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at the University of Louisville. I’m passionate about child development, emotional well-being, and creating safe, supportive environments where children can grow and thrive. I have 5 years of experience working at the Child Development Center on Fort Knox, where I cared for children of various ages while supporting their social, emotional, and developmental needs. My experience has taught me the importance of patience, structure, communication, and compassionate care. Families would describe me as dependable, calm, nurturing, and attentive. I genuinely enjoy building positive connections with children while making sure they feel safe, engaged, and cared for. Whether it’s helping with routines, creative activities, homework, or simply being a supportive presence, I strive to create a warm and trustworthy environment for every family I work with.

I have worked at a summer camp for the past 5 summers and loved every minute of it! Always something I would look forward to during the other seasons. I worked with 5-12 year olds at this summer camp. We would go 5 days a week and do outdoor activities, field trips, manage their lunches, help with bathroom breaks, etc. as well as working as a camp counselor I have been a life-gaurd for the past 6 summers so I am CPR and first aid certified. We would practice our CPR skills quite frequently (4/month) so the CPR skills are second nature to me at this point. I also have been babysitting since I was about 13 with different families. I used to have a family I babysat for every week for about a year. And I still sometimes sit for them when they need a babysitter. Usually the ages were 2-8 year olds. Also with having 6 nieces and 1 nephew, I babysit them a lot when their parents need me to. I use to babysit one of my nieces quite frequently with my brother being a single dad. My niece was about 3 months old when i started babysitting her up until she was about 2 years old. So I’ve had a lot of experience with different age groups, on different levels of looking after kids. I love working with kids, because I always have!

Hi families! 💕 As of now, I’m available for overnights Mon-Sun, late evenings, & Sat-Sun mornings. I’m also available for date nights & occasional babysitting. I’m so excited to connect with you! I’m currently a substitute teacher & absolutely love working w/kids—helping them learn, grow & have fun in a safe, caring environment. I bring patience, creativity & a positive attitude every day, whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside or learning something new. I’d love to support a family looking for an overnight/late evening nanny, babysitter or someone to call for date nights. I’m dependable, engaging & genuinely invested in children’s well-being. I’m lovable, energetic & love to have fun! I have a 10 yr old myself who brings me so much joy & happiness, so I know the ins & outs of caring for kids. I currently substitute when teachers call off, which allows me to work my own schedule, but I’m looking for stability—something FT or PT in the same field. I’m looking to be your perfect nanny since I already have advanced experience. I’d love to spend my time watching, caring for & teaching kids. I have experience watching 2 kids over the summer until they got older, & I can provide their family as a reference. I also love helping the elderly in my community & volunteering. I took a Child Development class in high school in 2013. After graduating, I worked as a Direct Support Professional & Personal Care Attendant helping individuals w/disabilities. Throughout the yrs, I’ve earned Mandt Training, CPR & First Aid, Substitute Teaching & Med Level 1. These certificates are currently active & I can provide proof. Caring for kids & adults isn’t just a job to me—it’s my passion. ❤️ When I was younger, I participated in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. I graduated from the program & currently volunteer. I’ve also kept a connection w/my mentor, who was my Big Sister when I was younger. She is now a lawyer & can provide a great professional character reference for me. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, I’d be so happy to chat more! 😊
