Hello, my name is Deborah and I am a recent graduate of the University of Michigan, where I obtained my degree in Biomedical Engineering. I currently work as a Biotech Engineer, and will begin my Master's degree in Fall 2026. I have received my Basic First Aid Training and completed the Red Cross CPR certification course. I love showing my love to others through cooking meals and love to read in my free time. In caring for your child, I love to engage them through reading, educational games, puzzles and a lot of time outside. In past roles I've been responsible for meal prep, light housekeeping, school pickup/drop off and overnight care.

Hi! My name is Larissa, and I’ve been a nanny for more than 10 years. Caring for children isn’t just a job to me — it’s something I truly love. Being part of a child’s growth, helping them learn, laugh, and feel safe, is incredibly rewarding. Over the years, I’ve worked with children of all ages — from infants to school-aged — and each stage brings something special. I pride myself on being patient, nurturing, and dependable. I create a calm, structured environment where children can thrive, and I work closely with parents to support each child’s individual needs. Whether it’s building forts, reading stories, or helping with routines, I bring a lot of heart and care into everything I do. I’m currently looking for a new family to grow with, and I’d love to find a long-term position where I can be a reliable part of your child’s world. Experience: 10 years of full-time nanny experience with multiple families Experience caring for infants, Twins, toddlers, and school-aged children Long-term positions (2–5 years with the same families) and nanny share. Assisted with developmental milestones, sleep routines, potty training Helped with homeschooling Supported families through transitions like new siblings or moves Skills & Strengths: Strong communication with both parents and children Gentle, consistent discipline and positive reinforcement Meal prep and light housekeeping related to children Homework help and educational play Comfortable managing multiple children at once Creative play (arts & crafts, reading, outdoor activities) Reliable, punctual, and flexible CPR/First Aid certified
