Evie $25 per hour for 1 child
I’m a responsible, hard-working nanny with experience caring for kids ages 1-12. I babysat a 3-year-old girl, and helped care for my niece from infancy through age 4. I've also led a group of 9-year-old girls as a camp counselor, and taught evening Russian classes to 11-12-year-olds (boys and girls) at my church for several years. I'm patient, especially with kids, and I connect with them easily, making them feel safe, seen, and heard. A bit about me: I'm getting married next May, and I currently work two part-time jobs (office admin and massage therapy). I'm looking to step away from massage therapy for good and focus on nanny work going forward. I'm looking for a stable Monday-Friday schedule, ideally 2:30-6:30 p.m. (flexible to 7pm), around 20 hours/week.

Katy $30 per hour for 1 child
Hi, my name is Katy! I am newly married and taking some time off of my traditional job. I have been a NICU clinical dietitian at Children’s hospitals for 6 years…needless to say I love kiddos! I love my nephews and spend so much time with them, help my friends who are new mamas, and truly just love being around kids! I am also more than happy to help with other household errands when the kids are at activities or in school! I am very comfortable if the kids need to be driven to activities as well!
