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 Marissa and I am 35 years old. I started babysitting when I was 12 for neighborhood kids as well as my twin cousins. After I graduated high school I became a certified nursing assistant and got a job in a local hospice where I worked for over 2 years - where then I decided to go back to school and pursue my education. In the meantime, I would work side jobs for families such as babysitting or nannying. I even obtained a position in a daycare in Farmington where I gained experience in all classrooms ages ranging from infant up to school age. I am also a mother of three girls and three boys. Ages are 1-12 years of age. They would not have to come with me to jobs as they go to daycare full time monday through friday! I think it's important to be active with kids whether it be playing outside, arts and crafts, or just being quiet and having story time. My schedule is flexible right now and I am also available last minute for date nights or unexpected childcare needs. I hope to talk to you soon!

I am 20 years old and currently attending UCCS and living in the Springs but I am from Minnesota! I’ve worked with kids for the past four years and love getting outside and being active with them! Although I also enjoy reading books and playing games indoors when weather doesn’t allow outside play. My availability mainly caters to date nights as I am a student athlete but I’m open to babysitting whenever my schedule allows! I am very comfortable with bedtime routines and taking care of pets if needed!

I love being a nanny because I like working with kids and being a positive part of their day! I love helping them stay active, use their creativity, and being engaged whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or just keeping them on a good everyday routine. It’s rewarding to build trust and relationships with both kids and parents and create a safe, fun environment. I have experience caring for children of different ages, including infant, preschool, elementary, and middle school age ranges. I’ve helped with things like meals, bedtime routines, playtime, and keeping kids entertained in a safe way. I’m comfortable managing multiple kids and handling different personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and good at staying organized/proactive. I’m able to handle different situations calmly and make sure kids are safe and cared for. I also have very strong communication skills and can keep parents updated.

I grew up as the oldest of six children. My family worked abroad at a childrens home in Jamaica. There I was able to help entertain the children and help with their daily needs. I started babysitting at 12 years old and had my first part-time nanny job at 15 years old. For the past four years, I have been a bunk counselor at a camp. I have also taught young children dance lessons and started the preschool ministry at my church. I love kids! Keeping them active and engaged during the summer months is such a fun goal.

I have always made kids a priority in my life. I was a nanny for 8 years in the 1990's. I had my niece 1 weekend a month from age 2 until her high school graduation.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth and I am 26 years old. I have a lot of experience working with kids of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I come from a large family and regularly have done all housekeeping duties at home, such as cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, laundry, as well as watching the kids. I have 7 younger siblings and babysat them often growing up, as well as for many other friends and families. I have had multiple nanny jobs and worked at daycares in the infant and toddler rooms as well! I have been pediatric and adult CPR and First Aid certified. I also have completed a certified child development course online. I am a single mom of a super chill 1 year old girl(born 6/23). She's a very happy girl and adjusts to new surroundings and people easily. Would you be okay with her coming along with me? I understand if not. I'm currently a nanny for a family with a 2yo and 6m old where I bring my daughter with, but they will no longer need care come September, so I’m looking for another family!

Hello! My name is Theresa Kelly. My husband I have raised three amazing daughters and now have an adorable two year old granddaughter. Growing up in Minnetonka, my favorite thing to do was to babysit. I loved it and had many jobs and was paid well. I went on babysitting trips with families, and in high school stayed with kiddos when parents went out of town. After high school I attended the university of Minnesota- Duluth and received a teaching degree in Elementary education. About that same time, our first daughter was born. While I was raising my girls for about 12 years I was a lead substitute teacher for the Watertown school district we lived in. I taught preschool through eighth grade and enjoyed the variety and flexibly. I have done several long term positions since then and taught preschool for 7 years. About four years ago I decided to go back to substitute teaching. I work in three different districts and have had full time work because the need is so high and I am often requested. I have loved it and am good at it, I think because I love all age levels, I am very adaptable, and have a great re pore with kids. Due to Covid, I at least for this year will not be substitute teaching. There is too much uncertainty and I work in 11 different buildings so I've decided too make a change. With everything going on in the world right now, heart goes out to families with young children. I know they have so many difficult decisions to make and a lot on their plates. I have no worries on finding other work, but as I have shared, I love working with children so becoming a nanny seems it would be a perfect fit, if I can find a family that is right for me. I'd love an opportunity to meet you and learn about your needs as a family to see if I'm the right nanny for you!
