Hello! My name is Laeh and I am a recent graduate of Xavier University of Louisiana, and I will be attending Creighton University School of Law this fall! I have always been great with children as I am an older sister and I have been babysitting for over 2 years now. I am CPR certified and I have experience preparing meals and putting children to bed. I also was a calculus tutor while on campus so I have no problem assisting with homework. When I am not in school or babysitting I enjoy working out, spending time with friends, reading, and volunteering with my school's organizations. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and would be happy to provide references if requested.

Hi parents! My name is Gabriella, I’m a fourth year student at Loyola University New Orleans studying international business. I am part of a big family as I have a total of 24 cousins (most are younger than me) and three younger brothers. I absolutely love kids as they bring so much joy and life into every family.
