Hii! I'm Ariyanna, a 19-year-old college student with a very big heart for all families. I have 5 years experience.In the past I've worked at an amazing In-home care facility as well as nanny for previous families on other care platforms , where I was blessed to learn the importance of safety, patience for all, and the art of creating a loving, calm and peaceful environment. I am currently in college at YTC earning my CNA certification and am excited to work toward my dream of one day working in a pediatric hospital. I have had the pleasure of caring for 2 different families so far, including one with an adorable 1 year old and another with a very cool set of twins. These amazing families helped me gain hands-on Nanny experience with different ages, routines, and personalities. I love creating a fun, positive and safe atmosphere. Whether that means playtime, helping with daily routines, or simply being a comforting presence to your families. I am very responsible, attentive, and gentle. I always care for all children, elderly people and pets with kindness and respect. Families can feel confident knowing their littles ones, pets, and family members are in safe, happy hands with me:)

I’ve been a nanny for 8 years, during which I’ve had the privilege of caring for children of all ages and abilities, including those with special needs. My background in healthcare, having studied at Carolina College of Health Sciences, has given me a deeper understanding of children’s health and well-being. I’ve also worked in a pharmacy, which enhanced my attention to detail, responsibility, and ability to manage care routines effectively. Throughout my nanny career, I’ve been committed to providing exceptional care, ensuring that children feel safe, supported, and stimulated. I engage children in educational activities, including early language skills like teaching Spanish, reading, and sensory play. I also enjoy planning outdoor outings and ensuring they have a balanced daily routine with meals, naps, and interactive play. My experience working with diverse families and special needs children has allowed me to develop patience, empathy, and strong communication skills. These qualities, combined with my medical background, make me a compassionate and capable caregiver.
