Hello! My name is Michaela Tucker, and I am excited to introduce myself as a potential nanny for your family. Growing up in a large family of six girls and one boy, I have always been surrounded by children. With all but one of my siblings having children of their own, I naturally gravitated towards caring for little ones. I began babysitting and nannying at the age of 12 and have accumulated a wealth of experience over the years. Since graduating from The University of Texas at Austin in 2021 with a degree in Biochemistry, a minor in Studio Art, and a Pre-Health Certificate, I have had the pleasure of working with two wonderful families. One family had two children—a toddler and an 8-year-old—while the other had three children ranging in age from 4 to 10. The most children I have cared for at one time is four, which included Read more a newborn, two toddlers, and an 8-year-old. I am adept at managing various age groups and enjoy engaging the children with educational trips to museums, the park, and the library. Additionally, I have experience assisting with homeschooling, providing a structured and enriching environment for learning. Beyond my professional experience, I am a big dog person and have two furry friends of my own. I am passionate about health and wellness, particularly when it comes to children, and always ensure that ingredients and products are safe for the entire family. In my free time, I love to paint, draw, cook, and bake. I even own an all-natural hair care company! My goal as a nanny is to support and enrich your family's day-to-day life, making it easier and more enjoyable for everyone involved. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to the opportunity to get to know your family!
