Hi! Iβm Anilah, a full-time college student studying sonography with plans to pursue neonatal nursing. Caring for others has always been a huge part of who I am, and working with children feels very natural to me. I grew up in a big family with three siblings, so Iβm patient, nurturing, and comfortable in busy households. I love doing creative activities like painting and crocheting with kids, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment. Iβm reliable, attentive, and truly enjoy helping families feel at ease knowing their children are well cared for. At this time, I am not comfortable driving due to a recent car accident (not at fault). I am happy to care for children in the home and am reliable with on-site responsibilities.
