Hi I’m Kate! I just graduated highschool and would like to pursue being a nanny/sitter this summer before I go to college! I enjoy hiking, art, singing, and instruments.
Hi! My name is Yasmiin. I recently graduated with a degree in Public Health and have always loved working with children. In addition to my professional experience mentoring youth, coaching, and caregiving, I have been blessed to help raise and live with my niece and nephew, who are now 5 and 7 years old. Being actively involved in their daily lives has taught me so much about patience, creativity, communication, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. I am responsible, dependable, and caring, with experience supporting children of different ages and personalities. I enjoy planning fun activities that keep kids engaged, including arts and crafts, games, outdoor adventures, reading, and educational activities. I also enjoy helping with homework, preparing simple meals, maintaining routines, and assisting with light household tasks when needed. My background in caregiving and crisis intervention has strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure, solve problems, and prioritize safety. Families can count on me to be attentive, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in their children’s well-being. My goal is to create a fun, positive, and supportive experience where children feel comfortable, encouraged, and cared for. I would love the opportunity to support your family and build a meaningful connection with your children!
Hello! I have over 20 years experience working with children in both childcare centers and home settings. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work and 12 units of child development coursework, as well as literacy courses. I am also a mother of 2 daughters ages 12 and 2! I LOVE all animals and currently have 2 dogs. I am easy going but structured and organized. I absolutely love spending my time with wonderous children ...and believe that there's nothing more precious in this life than a baby who's learning to crawl (and walk). Although, I recognize and appreciate the lil quirks that come with each stage of development.
Hi, I’m Quinn! I’m currently studying to become a nurse and have over 6 years of experience babysitting for families in my neighborhood. I love staying active and grew up playing hockey and lacrosse—so I’m always up for outdoor play, games, or anything that keeps kids moving and having fun! I’m reliable, patient, and love creating a positive, engaging environment for kids of all ages. Whether it’s crafts, story time, or helping with homework, I’m happy to jump in wherever I’m needed. I look forward to meeting your family!
