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.

Hi! My name is Takiyah, and I’ve been a dedicated babysitter for over 6 years. Currently working at a daycare in Villa Park! I am also currently n college studying elementary education k-3rd. Looking forward to graduating this upcoming spring! I truly love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children grow, learn, and explore the world in a safe and nurturing environment.

Over the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to preteens. My experience includes everything from diaper changes and bottle feeding to helping with homework, organizing creative activities, and managing bedtime routines. I’ve worked with families long-term, handled last-minute calls, and even supported kids with special needs. I’m trained in CPR and First Aid, and I bring strong communication, patience, and multitasking skills to every job. I always strive to create a calm, fun, and engaging atmosphere where kids feel safe and parents feel confident. I look forward to meeting your family and seeing how I can help!

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.

I am a compassionate and experienced childcare provider with a genuine passion for working with children. As the third eldest of eleven siblings, I have had hands-on experience caring for children of various ages from a young age, which has helped shape my nurturing, patient, and dependable nature. In addition to my family experience, I have served as a nursery teacher at church, where I cared for and engaged young children in a safe, structured, and loving environment. I also have several years of experience working with children with special needs, and I am happy to provide a reference for this experience upon request. I am CPR certified and can provide documentation for parents’ peace of mind. I primarily offer care in my home, where I provide a safe, child-friendly environment. I have two toddlers of my own (ages five and four) who will be present during care. My home is fully childproofed and features a large fenced backyard equipped with a trampoline and age-appropriate play equipment to encourage outdoor activity and development. For added transparency and reassurance, a nanny cam will be available for parents to access while their child is in my care. My goal is to provide a loving, structured, and engaging environment where children feel safe, supported, and valued. (I also provide overnight care)
