As an experienced and nurturing childcare provider with a strong background in both childcare and public school education, I am dedicated to fostering a safe, stimulating, and supportive environment for children. My approach is centered around building meaningful, trusting relationships with children and their families, while promoting positive behaviors, emotional growth, and academic success. I am a licensed nursing assistant and CPR and First Aid certified. Others have described me as patient, creative, resourceful, and always having a positive attitude. I have over 4 years of hands-on experience working with children from infancy to PreK. I have a strong background in creating age-appropriate activities that engage children’s imaginations, promote social and emotional development, and ensure their well-being. I am skilled in preparing meals, managing daily routines, and providing educational support as needed. I also have a background in working in public schools with general education and special education students. I have an understanding of the academic and social needs of children in a structured learning environment. I have assisted in classrooms, helping students with homework, guiding them through projects, and ensuring they stay on track with their academic progress. My experience in a classroom setting enables me to offer a unique perspective and contribute to a child’s academic and personal growth at home.

Hi. My name is Valeria, I'm 26 years old, I speak Spanish. I’m a responsible, affectionate, and patient person. I enjoy playing with children and supporting them in their daily activities. I always try to share joy and create a calm, positive environment for the children and people around me. I also love animals, so I feel comfortable taking care of both children and pets when needed. My English level is basic/intermediate but I'm still learning. I don't have my own car but I do have a driver's license. I currently work in a bakery as a decorator, which allows me to be creative and enjoy making different things.
Hello My name is Shana I am a single mother of 4. I've worked in childcare for 4 years as a lead infant teacher. My four years of experience caring for children aged 0-5 , including being lead infant teacher and working with toddlers, have solidified my desire to positively impact young lives.

Supporting families by providing reliable care is important to me. I'm comfortable caring for up to two children, and I look forward to the possibility of working with your family!

Hi, my name is Kayeann and I have been working as a nanny for 41 years and I love what I am doing. Children are a blessing to work with in my eyes, I adore working with newborns through five years old because that is the most important years of their lives. During the first five years children are a sponge and learn so much. Children over all are just a pleasure to work with. I love working with the future of the world and inspiring them to be the best they can be.
