Hello, my name is Ketlyn. I am 23 years old, originally from Brazil, and I speak three languages fluently: English, Spanish, and Portuguese. I have over 8 years of experience working as a nanny. I started very young, caring for newborn twins, and since then I have developed a true passion for childcare. Over the years, I have worked with children of different ages, always providing a safe, loving, and structured environment. My experience includes caring for infants and young children, preparing bottles and meals, introducing solid foods, diaper changes, bathing when necessary, nap routines, engaging in age-appropriate activities, and maintaining a clean and organized environment related to the child. I am attentive, responsible, patient, and always focused on the child’s safety, development, and well-being. I would be happy to share references and provide more information if needed. Thank you for your time and consideration. Ketlyn
Hi, I'm Roselyn! As a mom to an 8-year-old, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring for your children. I have an Associate's Degree in Psychology, nursing education from the Philippines, and I'm currently studying toward a career in Occupational Therapy. My education and parenting experience have given me a strong foundation in child development, safety, and caregiving. I strive to provide a fun, safe, and supportive environment for every child in my care.

Hello! My name is Deborah, and I’m an experienced nanny with over 10 years of dedicated childcare experience. I began my first nanny position at 18 and was a live-in caregiver for two years. I have since worked with children ranging from infants as young as 6 months to preteens. Over the years, I’ve provided excellent care including diaper changes, bath time, meal preparation, school pick-ups, after-school activities, pet care, and house sitting. With a bachelor’s degree in Public Health, I’m passionate about fostering nurturing, educational, and engaging environments for children. I love creating activities that encourage curiosity, creativity, and movement, helping kids burn energy in healthy, fun ways. I’m active, dependable, and deeply enjoy supporting families by providing not just care, but genuine partnership in their children’s growth and development. And as an animal lover, I’m always happy to care for pets, too (unfortunately not cats as I am allergic).
“Debbie has babysat for my grandchildren. I have known her for many years since she was in her teens as she was my high school student. She is extremely good with children, fun, caring and reliable. I highly recommend her for any childcare position.”
Hi! I’m Alyssa, a 20-year-old college student currently studying Psychology. I’ve babysat for family and friends before, and I work at a daycare school for kids ranging from infants to elementary grades. I’m calm under pressure, dependable, and able to connect with kids pretty easily. I also have experience with tutoring and enjoy cooking, so I’m happy to help with homework and meal prep when needed. I have a very flexible schedule for the summer and would love to help out! Looking forward to connecting!
“Alyssa was energetic, attentive and engaging. My daughter had an amazing time with her! ”
