Hello! I am a new-graduate physician assistant looking for a fun position as a nanny before I start working full time as a PA. I have been babysitting and working with children in different settings, both paid and unpaid, since I was in middle school. Most recently, I nannied for several families on a part-time basis from 2[removed]. I absolutely love working with children and getting to encourage the development of their growing minds! I think my personal emphasis on kindness and hard work are excellent traits for children to look up to and eventually implement into their own lives. This will make them adults who greatly impact society in the future, and I think that is one of the most rewarding aspects of childcare! With my education and prior experience as an EMT, I am extremely comfortable with caring for people with medical conditions and am extensively trained in basic and advanced life support for both children and adults. Therefore, I would be a reliable individual in any emergency situation. Also, I have had some brief experiences with pet sitting and have grown up taking care of dogs of my own. Currently, I have a 1 year old lab-pit bull mix who loves walks and snuggles!
“Malia is a wonderful caregiver. My family utilized her when we were visiting from out of town for our two young boys. She was accommodating, responsible, kind and thorough. She even prepared activities for the boys. She provided local area recommendations for things to do with kids which we greatly appreciated. We were so lucky to find her. Even my son who has difficulty adapting to different caregivers was raving about her. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for a caregiver for your children!”
Hi I’m Sheyly! I absolutely love to be with kids! I currently work at a daycare for 3 years now. I can be in a families with pets. I’m not allergic to anything. I can offered anything! :)
Hi! My name is Cassidy. I'm 22 and graduated from Vanderbilt in May. I currently work as a research assistant from around 9-5 at Vanderbilt Hospital. In college, I majored in Child Development on the pre-med track. I've babysat since I was 14 years old, and have worked with children ranging from age 1 to 14. I also worked as a camp counselor at a camp for children with cancer and their siblings for 3 summers. I'm outgoing, energetic, caring, and punctual. I'm super excited to begin babysitting again!
Hi, my names Heaven! I am the oldest child of a large family and have always loved kids. I have spent the past 10 years nannying for families as a reliable caregiver however needed. That includes pet care and other household services! I also tutor and teach piano. I hold a college degree and maintain current CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment for the children I am supervising. Whether we are playing outdoors, doing indoor activities, or working on homework my approach is to always make our time enjoyable. I am also happy to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, housekeeping, and travel. I have experience with babies including newborns and have done overnight care. I have also worked in day cares, afterschool programs, and summer camps. I prioritize clear communication and will always follow your preferred method for daily updates. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted help for your children. If you have any questions please reach out!
From adopted senior dogs to new born puppies, animals have been a large part of my everyday life, forming my continues care and love for their wellbeing. Currently, I have a senior dog named Albert who needs more care and attention for his needs. I also have a 5 year old dog named Minus who is very active and loves to learn and show us his new tricks. Both of them like to play, nap, and sun bathe, while I also meet and support their needs. My dogs have always been my best friends and I want to become your pets as well! I’ve been a pet sitter on Rover for a little over two and a half years, and I’ve loved every second of it. I am fully background-checked and have completed more than 35 bookings, including eight amazing pets that I see on a regular basis. These long-term relationships mean so much to me as they’ve helped me grow as a sitter and understand how to create a comfortable, consistent routine for every animal I care for. It is very important to me to know all of your pets favorites and fears. I want to create a safe and personal experience with your fur baby, while also respecting their boundaries. Let me know during our meet and greet if your pet has separation anxiety, food aggression, particular needs, etc. Also tell me their favorite toy, treats, activities to do, etc. I want for theirs, mine, and your experience to be wonderful!
