Hi there! My name is Angel, and I absolutely adore spending time with children. They are bursting with incredible energy and an infectious joy that fills my heart. I am passionate about working with children because they have a remarkable ability to teach us valuable lessons, such as appreciating the simple pleasures in life. Over the past 13 years, I have had the privilege of working with children in various capacities, including babysitting, nannying, camp counseling, daycare assistance, teaching assistant, kindergarten and preschool teacher, and even as an education administrator. I have had the pleasure of working with children ranging from newborns to 16 years old, and I have grown to love getting to know their unique personalities and individual needs. Watching children grow and learn is an absolute delight for me. I am thrilled to be a part of their journey, helping them navigate the challenges of school and life in general. I have had the opportunity to work with children in different areas and schools through relief work, and I have developed a deep passion for childcare that I can’t ignore. Currently, I am pursuing my education by going back to study Early Childhood Education and Business. I am eagerly looking forward to completing my schooling and becoming a principal. Kids are simply my favorite to be around; they never fail to bring a sense of excitement and wonder into my life. Angel Murph

I have over 20 years of babysitting and caregiving experience and am currently certified in Basic Life Support and First Aid. I grew up working at my mother's daycare center, where my passion for working with children bloomed. Over the years, I've volunteered in my church's nursery, taught Sunday school for Pre-K and Kindergarten, and cared for my daughter/nieces/nephews, as well as babysitting for friends and neighbors. I started my career as a professional caregiver over 10 years ago, so I have experience with anyone from infants to teenagers to the elderly. For the past few years, I have worked as a medical assistant in a variety of healthcare settings. To me, caring for children is very rewarding and I love what I do. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and my friends I am comfortable with pets. I have a reliable car and am able to help with homework, mealtimes, and light housekeeping. I value safe and fun experiences and love to incorporate learning into play and everyday activities. I Love making each day fun and kids smile. I'm a smiley bubbly positive person myself.

Hi I'm Ryan, I've worked in daycare centers and summer camps. I graduated from South Suburban College. I've been in child care for about 12 years now, I've had 2 nanny jobs and several babysitter jobs. I started babysitting a lot at 20 because I got step family that gave me 8 little siblings and I had to babysit some of their friends mostly during the summers. I like to be very active with the kids with play time or taking them to play at the park, Coloring books or reading books with them. Always down to watch a movie or play games on the tablets with them if allowed. I also love going places if needed. A little about me, Play basketball at the parks, Volunteer at animal shelters when possible, Definitely like my video games. I would say I'm very punctual, Very patient and kids love me.
