Hi my name is Leilani (Lay-Lawn-Knee) I am 21 and a non smoker. I have 5 years of babysitting and nannying experience with children of varied ages. I am BLS certified (basic life support certified) and continuing my education in emergency medical care. I love playing outdoors, arts and crafts, and child lead play. It's important for me to teach all children in my care important life skills through play, problem solving, and communication, setting clear boundaries that allow kids to feel safe and supported. Along with open communication with you the parents are my top priorities. I have my own reliable transportation. I am okay with pets, doing meal preparation, bedtime, and of course helping with homework. My references are available upon request.

I’m 22 years old, from Utah and am a recently married military spouse. I am CPR certified (Basic life support) as well as an emt student and former pediatric medical assistant. I grew up with 3 new baby siblings at age 11 and always enjoyed helping my mom with anything I could. I’ve always had a passion for working with children and look forward to furthering my education in the medical field focusing on pediatrics and mothers. I don’t have children of my own quite yet but can’t wait for the time to come.

Hello! My name is Allyson, and I recently moved to the area from Wisconsin with my partner after earning my M.A. in Public Service from Marquette University. Caring for children has been one of the greatest joys in my life. I've been babysitting and nannying since I was 12 years old and have had the privilege of caring for dozens of families with children ranging from just 2 weeks old through 12 years old. While I enjoy working with children of all ages, I have a special passion for caring for infants. Building trusting relationships with families is incredibly important to me, and several parents have shared that I was the first person outside of their family they felt comfortable leaving their baby with. I consider that trust an incredible honor and strive to provide every child with patient, attentive, and loving care. My graduate fellowship at a child welfare agency deepened my holistic approach to caregiving. There, I received training in trauma-informed care and Trust-Based Relational Intervention, strengthening my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and the importance of secure, responsive relationships. I am also currently earning a Trauma Informed Care Certification through Michigan State University to continue expanding my knowledge and provide the best care possible for every child I work with. Whether we're reading books, exploring outside, creating art, or working through big emotions together, I strive to create an environment where children feel safe, respected, and encouraged to learn. I'm also happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework/educational activities, and pet care so I can be a dependable, supportive presence for your entire family. On a personal note, I love being in water, quality time with my partner, singing, going to parks, and snuggles with with my kitty, Miss Araya Sunshine. One of my long-term dreams is to open a daycare centered on social-emotional learning, nervous system regulation, and helping children explore their interests and build confidence through safe, nurturing relationships. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide quality, nurturing care to your littles!

I’m a compassionate, dependable, and patient caregiver who truly enjoys helping others. I have hands-on experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), where I’ve provided personal care, assisted with daily living activities, monitored residents, and created a safe, comfortable environment for seniors. I’m CPR, AED, and First Aid certified and currently pursuing a nursing degree with the goal of becoming a pediatric nurse. In addition to caring for seniors, I have experience caring for children, including newborns and young kids, through babysitting family members and younger cousins. I enjoy keeping children engaged with age-appropriate activities while ensuring they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, homework assistance, transportation to activities (if needed), organization, and maintaining a clean, welcoming home. I’m comfortable around pets as well and can assist with basic pet care such as feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention. Families describe me as kind, responsible, trustworthy, and attentive. I believe in treating every child, senior, and family with the same love, patience, and respect that I would want for my own family.

As a patient and friendly childcare provider with four years of experience, I am dedicated to supporting families and offering reliable care for their children. My calm and approachable nature helps create a nurturing environment where children feel safe and happy. I believe in open communication with parents and regularly provide updates on their child's day, either verbally at pickup or through text or phone calls, whichever they prefer. I follow the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing consistency and respect for their parenting style. My passion for child development extends beyond providing care. I enjoy engaging children in outdoor sports and physical games, as well as board games and puzzles. I am also happy to assist with cooking and meal preparation, light housekeeping, and travel, making me a versatile and valuable childcare provider.
