My name is Jiranan, but I go by Nadia because it’s easier to say. I currently work as a caregiver and am looking for a side job working with children to gain more experience. I’m a responsible and easygoing high school graduate who enjoys working with kids and helping others. I have about 3 years of volunteer experience teaching and assisting children, along with some hands-on caregiving experience, including working with special needs individuals. I’m fluent in Thai and Lao, and I’m known for being patient, dependable, and open-minded. I like getting to know each child’s personality and creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment. I’m always willing to learn and grow while doing my best in everything I do.

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
