Adrianna $20 per hour for 1 child

I'm passionate about nurturing and caring for children, a passion that grew over my 6 years of volunteering, nannying and babysitting in childcare. The excitement on the children's faces and the trust their parents had in me solidified my desire to make a positive impact on the lives of children and their families. I am CPR certified & First Aid trained. I also have my fingerprint card! With 6 years of experience caring for children of various ages, I'm adept at creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for them to thrive. My patient and calm demeanor, coupled with my creativity and imagination, allows me to connect with children effortlessly. I believe in open communication and building strong relationships with parents, ensuring that I follow their preferred communication method and collaborate closely with them to address any concerns or issues that may arise. Whether it's engaging in outdoor activities, crafts, or exploring games that promote learning, I strive to make playtime both enjoyable and enriching for the children in my care.
