Hi! My name is Zion, and I’m a senior at Mississippi State University studying Music with a concentration in Voice. I’ve been around children my whole life, my grandmother ran a daycare for 14 years, so caring for little ones comes naturally to me. I have a strong love for education, especially learning through music. I enjoy incorporating songs, reading time, and creative activities into my care. I also love books (I’m a big reader!) and know basic baby sign language to help support early communication. Your child’s safety, happiness, and growth are always my top priority!

Hi! I’m Ellison, a recent Psychology graduate from Mississippi State University with a passion for working with children. I’ve spent several years caring for kids in a variety of settings, including as an Early Childhood Caregiver, where I cared for multiple infants and young children while creating a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. I’ve also worked as a tumbling and dance instructor, giving me experience keeping children engaged, active, and having fun while building their confidence.My background in psychology has given me a deeper understanding of child development, behavior, and positive communication, and I love using that knowledge to connect with each child based on their unique personality and needs. Whether we’re playing games, helping with homework, reading stories, or winding down for bedtime, I strive to make children feel safe, supported, and cared for.Parents describe me as dependable, patient, organized, and attentive to detail. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your children, and I would be honored to provide a fun, safe, and reliable experience for your family!
