I truly value the opportunity to enrich the lives of young children and help them learn and grow. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education, and 25 years of experience caring for children from infants to teenagers, including babysitting, being a nanny/household manager, teaching preschool, teaching gymnastics, and coaching cheerleading. I also have my own small business (Braids and Butterflies Spa Parties), hosting spa parties for girls ages 4 to 12. I have been working with children my entire adult life, and couldn't see myself doing anything else. Finding the "right fit" is very important to me, as I believe that communication is key and things go much more smoothly when everyone is on the same page. Being a nanny is more than a job to me; I form lasting relationships with the families that I care for, and I take pride in becoming an extension of family to the children in my care. I'm a trustworthy, organized, capable self-starter, and I enjoy being out and about with children, doing fun activities or even everyday errands. I'm also a proud mom to a wonderful almost 5 yr old girl, who would be joining me. Kelsey is sweet, easy-going, and is used to working with me. She is very helpful and loves making friends! I like to keep busy and I'm open to doing other household tasks such as laundry, organizing, grocery shopping/errands. I drive a minivan and have a safe driving record, and excellent references! Ideally I am looking for 10-20 hours per week, but can be flexible and I am open to working with more than one family. Also interested in occasional babysitting. Thanks for reading, and hope to hear from you soon!

Hi! I’m a responsible and caring 19-year-old high school graduate with a strong passion for childcare and development. I’ve completed a job shadow in an elementary school classroom, which gave me hands-on experience supporting young learners and understanding how to create a positive, engaging environment. I’ve also spent lots of time caring for my 5-year-old nephew, so I’m comfortable with daily routines, playtime, helping with meals, and keeping kids entertained in fun and creative ways. Safety is very important to me, and I am CPR certified. I’m patient, dependable, and love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
