Hello! I'm Natalie :) I'm a recent university graduate with over 5 years of babysitting and nannying experience, including children with special needs and households of 4 or more kids. I've also worked in a daycare setting, caring for infants and planning lessons for and teaching 2 year olds. Growing up with 8 younger siblings, caretaking is deeply ingrained in me, and I love helping little ones flourish and watching them develop into the individual that they are. I'm a nurturing person who finds joy in teaching kids about the world in fun and considerate ways, and especially love taking kids on nature walks, reading books, playing pretend, and facilitating crafts. I can adapt to many temperaments, needs, and ages. I am proficient in French, and have basic Spanish language skills. I am willing to help with any housework or food preparation needs there may be, and minor pet care as well. I have open availability and would love to get to know you and your child!

Hi! My name is Mekymbria (Kym preferably) and I have been in the childcare field for about 3 years. I started off in a school age setting where I worked with elementary students falling behind in their curriculum. Eventually, I transitioned to a daycare setting where I worked with the most amazing toddlers for 2 years! I loved working with the kids there and desired to learn more about ALL kids. I currently have my RBT certification and I am in school working to become a BCBA as helping children on the spectrum is something I am extremely passionate about.

Babysitting was my first job in high school while in Co-op I worked at FUMC Naps Daycare and then I was hired on permanently. Afterwards I would take some of the kids home and babysit them until their parents came home during the week and on some weekends I would babysit as well for different families. I help take care of my 8 year old cousin who has special needs. I do not do inside pets at all. I have children of my own that are now young adults😊

Joshalyn C.
- 10 years paid experience
- 15 miles

Hello! My name is Joshalyn, and I have over 10 years of experience working in childcare settings, along with being a mom to two wonderful kids of my own (ages 7 and 11). Growing up in a large family with 7 siblings gave me hands-on experience from an early age with children of all ages—from infants to teens. I am CPR certified and confident in providing a safe, nurturing, and structured environment. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable helping as a household manager—keeping things running smoothly with cooking, cleaning, errands, and organizing daily routines. I enjoy planning engaging activities, encouraging learning through play, and supporting healthy habits. Families I’ve worked with describe me as dependable, caring, and flexible. I understand the balance of being reliable for parents while also creating a warm and fun environment for children to grow and thrive in. I would love the opportunity to support your family, not only by caring for your children but also by helping make home life a little easier.

- 5 years paid experience

I’ve been caring for kids for 5 years and absolutely love it. I’m up to date on childcare trainings, so I know how to keep little ones safe while also making sure we have lots of fun together. I enjoy planning creative activities, playing games, and helping with schoolwork or routines. Kids tend to warm up to me quickly because I bring patience, kindness, and a positive attitude to every job. My goal is to make sure your children feel happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away ** Also, I have realized i typed my name too fast and did not double check before i saved it and I am unable to figure out how to correct my mistake but my name is , Regan, not Regab!!😊
