Miya (Crys)
Hi, I'm Crys, and I've worked at daycare for 3 years dealing with infants to kindergarteners. I'm trained in infant Heimlich maneuver, CPR, and First Aid. I'm learning baby sign language to help the kids communicate. I often like to take the children on walks in the park, with their families' permission, and have them call out the names of animals and colors that they've likely learned at home or in kindergarten. I love decorating cupcakes, doing stencil paintings, finger paintings, writing letters to family or friends and teaching good conflict resolution skills. I also have experience in special needs and I can relate to the children better because of it, especially autism and ADHD

Audrey
Caring for children is more than a job for me - it's my passion. I am a dedicated childcare professional with a degree in Early Childhood Education and over 15 years of experience working with children in daycare centres and church settings. In addition, I have 2.5 years experience as a full time live-in nanny caring for children of various ages, including infants. My responsibilities included performing light household chores like managing the children's laundry and maintaining clean and organized play areas. I love to engage the children in activities they enjoy like outside play, story time, singing, crafts etc. While caring for the infant, I handled feeding, burping, diaper changes, tummy time, bottle cleaning, baby laundry and maintaining daily routines according to the parents instruction. I believe every child deserves a safe, loving and encouraging environment to thrive.

Hi, I’m Amoni! I’m a dependable, patient, and energetic caregiver with several years of experience working with children in both childcare and at home settings. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable while their parents are away. My experience includes caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I have worked as a teacher assistant, nanny and babysitter, where I developed strong skills in supervising activities, preparing meals and snacks, helping with homework, and maintaining daily routines. I love planning age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and games. Families describe me as reliable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I understand the importance of trust and always strive to provide excellent care while keeping parents updated throughout the day. I am CPR certified and committed to creating a positive experience for every family I work with. Whether you need occasional babysitting, date-night coverage, or regular care, I would love the opportunity to support your family. I hope to connect with your family soon!
