My name is Danielle, I am 26 years old. My first nanny job started as a babysitting job when I was about 13/14 years old. The family I worked for became a whole other family to me. I soon realized how much of an impact I was to the girls I looked after, so after 4/5 years of working for them they ended up moving to Alaska. I eventually went off to college for my Bachelor’s in Science of Communications at the University of Phoenix. Throughout my college years I would occasionally babysit but it wasn’t until a few years ago when I moved back to Minnesota where I started to nanny again. I was a nanny for a four month old baby girl. My time with her was pretty short due to her dad getting a new job so they ended up moving but within those couple months my tasks included changing her diapers, bottle feeding her, entertaining her, taking her on walks, putting her down for naps and ensuring tummy time. My latest family I’ve been with for over two years now and I’ve been nannying two girls that are 8 and 11 now. My tasks include picking them up from the bus stop, helping with homework, feeding them dinner, packing lunches, laundry, meal prep, cleaning, organizing kid areas and driving them to activities. I’ve always enjoyed being around kids due to their creative minds and watching them become their own selves. Childhood is such an important part of one’s life and I remember the ones who played a role in my childhood so creating an atmosphere where they can thrive and discover themselves is my main priority when it comes to being a nanny. Thing I enjoy to do consist of being outside, whether thats going for a walk/hike, going out on the boat when the weathers nice enough, setting up a hammock to draw or read; the choices are never ending. I also enjoy cooking for others. Ever since I was young kid I loved to watch cooking shows, so I’ve learned a few techniques throughout the years.

Hello! My name is Julia, I’m 30 years old, and I was born and raised in Minnesota. I’ve been working as an independent nanny for the past several years for a few families. I have experience with a wide array of ages and ability levels, from infant to teens. I most recently was a nanny part time for a family with three boys under 4 years old. Prior to becoming a nanny, I worked as a direct support professional and independent living skills counselor in a group home and in community based settings. I worked with individuals with severe and persistent mental illnesses and neurodivergent individuals, helping them learn life and coping skills. I have also worked with children with autism and Down Syndrome during my time as a nanny. I am very contentious about safety, and am fully vaccinated against COVID. I have ten plus years of child care and related experience and am CPR and first aid trained. I have also taken child development safety courses including SIDS and head trauma. In my free time I enjoy photography, arts and crafts, gardening, and spending time with my fiancé up north anywhere near Lake Superior. I would love a chance to talk with or meet you and your little one/s! I hope to hear from you soon! Julia

I became a certified babysitter for the first time when I was 11. I have always loved children, and as an adult I began working with preschool aged children professionally 10 years ago, when I worked in an infant room at a kindercare while earning a certificate of Montessori Education. Ever since I have worked in preschools, day care centers, nannied and babysat children, from ages 0-10. I love observing each child's special interests and following these to help them learn more about the world. I have experience with twins and potty-training. I currently work at a local preschool with toddlers, 16-36 months olds.

I am a semi-retired occupational therapist with 38 years of working with children in public schools. I have three grown children of my own and am married and have a dog too. I love caring for children and my focus is on helping them play and do the activities that are developmentally appropriate for them. I am looking for part time work to help out parents so they can get a night out, attend appointments, or get some extra help around the home. I also do well with children with special needs.
