I have been watching my younger cousins since I was 11 years old. I’ve made them meals, provided entertainment, and run errands for my auntie once I got a car. Once I got into the real world. I started being a teaching assistant, and have been for the past 3 years. Which is basically another form of babysitting, with fun games and guidance. I love kids and allowing them to find themselves. One of my main missions in life is too provide kids with a space to be their most authentic self as long as they are with me. I am patient, kind, and responsible. I am a very organized, respectful, and resilient woman. I love keeping my own space clean. I have experience with housekeeping, plant care, and cat sitting as well. I am professional actress trying to save up money for grad school! I have all of my evenings available as I have part time job during the day.

Hi! My name is Tanya. I’m a native Californian but I’ve lived in MS for over 25 years now. I love the slower pace of life here and the kindness and warmth of the people. I’m a mother myself, having raised a 14-year-old son. I served as a college administrator in Jackson for many years, after receiving a master’s degree and working toward a Ph.D. in French, and studying and working abroad. At this point in my life, I firmly believe that having a career as a nanny, preferably with infants, is my calling. I adore babies, having cared for newborns as young as 8 weeks old. I pride myself on providing loving, nurturing care while helping babies thrive as they develop cognitively, physically, and emotionally. I am extremely reliable, attentive, mature, an excellent communicator, and always provide a safe, supportive environment for the children in my care. With my near-native fluency in the language, I also love teaching children French from birth, as I did with my own son. I have been working as a professional nanny for over 3 years now, primarily with infants, including newborns and twins. I have received training in both Infant First Aid and Infant CPR.

Hello Everyone, My Name is Kimmoro, I’m 18 years old, an upcoming freshman in college. I’ve been babysitting for about a year now, but still new and learning. I love working with children because it provides an opportunity to teach them life lessons, useful skills, important knowledge, and to grow with them. Working with children can be the most difficult but yet rewarding. As you I look after and teach children in my care, i will build strong bonds that will carry with me forever. What sets me apart is my commitment and personality. I’m currently getting CPR certified and I hope you guys will consider me for the job. Thank you so much!

I love being a sitter because I get to experience the joy of children. I love to see their faces light up when I teach them something new or when we are just having fun. I have worked in a Montessori daycare for almost over 2 years and I just enjoy the blessing of being able to encounter different little people.

I was a child care director for over 5 years I have worked with all ages 6weeks to 18 years olds. I have had the privilege of working with children in various capacities, which has greatly enriched my understanding of their developmental needs and interests. My experience began as a volunteer at a local after-school program, where I assisted with homework help and organized recreational activities. This role taught me how to create engaging and educational environments that foster learning and creativity. I later took on a position as a camp counselor, where I planned and led activities that promoted teamwork and problem solving skills. Through these experiences, I learned to communicate effectively with children of different ages, adapting my approach to meet their individual needs and encouraging their self expression. Overall, my background has instilled in me a deep appreciation for the joys and challenges of working with young people, and I am committed to supporting their growth in a nurturing and positive manner.
