Hi! I’m a recent high school graduate and will be starting at Macalester College this fall. I have over 3 years of paid childcare experience, including working both as a nanny and as an Adventure Club aide through the elementary after-school program with Stillwater Area Public Schools. In those roles, I’ve worked with children across a wide range of ages, personalities, and social/emotional needs, and I genuinely enjoy building relationships with kids and understanding what helps them feel comfortable, confident, and engaged. Families describe me as dependable, patient, calm, and structured. I work best with families who value clear expectations and open communication. I’m happy to help with transportation, light housekeeping, homework support, and creating fun, age-appropriate activities. I can do some basic cooking and I'm willing to learn as I go. I’m currently looking for a full-time summer position and would also be open to continuing part-time during the Read more school year if schedules align. I am also open to working evenings and weekends. I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family!
