Hi there! My name is Lauryn, I’m 25 years old and currently work full-time as a Medical Assistant. I’m also a certified CNA, and I hold current CPR and First Aid certifications—safety and health are always a top priority for me. While I do love the medical field, my love for working with children has always been even stronger. After years of balancing both, I’ve realized that my true passion lies in childcare. I’m now shifting my career focus to work more closely with families and children full-time. Nothing brings me more joy than creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can thrive—and I’m excited to dedicate myself fully to that path. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, with over a decade of experience caring for children of all ages—from infants to pre-teens. I’m confident managing multiple children at once (4 or more!), and I always aim Read more to create a fun, engaging, and safe environment. Whether it's helping with homework, planning activities, or sticking to bedtime routines, I’m happy to help make your day easier and your kids' day brighter! I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
