Nurturing young minds is my passion. For 20 years, I've dedicated myself to providing enriching childcare experiences. My graduate degree, combined with Early Child Development coursework, has equipped me with the knowledge to support each child's unique growth. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational apps. I'm happy to help with cooking, carpooling, and swimming supervision. I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, including verbal updates and texts. Knowing I can positively impact your child's life and provide reliable support for your family is why I love what I do. I can comfortably care for three children and would love to bring my patient, creative, and friendly approach to your family. ***** I take Zelle for payment*****

Hi my names Aaniyah. I’m currently pursuing my degree in nursing, and I’m certified in CPR/AED. Im bilingual (english/spanish) and have hands-on experience caring for babies, kids, and pets. I’m also happy to help with light housework when needed. Caring for others has always been a passion of mine, which is why I’ve chosen a career path in nursing. I also love being able to teach and inspire kids. Growing up, I developed a true love for learning, and I’d love to share that by helping children explore new things, encouraging curiosity, and even taking them on fun little adventures. My goal is to not only provide safe care but also create positive, engaging experiences for the kids I work with.
