Hi, My name is Ashton Askew! I've loved caring for kids for as long as I can remember and pursued it as my career the moment I turned 18. I started nannying in Los Angeles, California and fell in love with the job immediately! I'm now in Center City and looking to jump back in. As a high energy childcare specialist with 7 years of experience, I take pride in providing a unique, exciting and thoughtful approach to childcare. For years I have been valued by families for exceptional warmth, understanding, patience, dedication, and child specific judgement calls. Beyond that, I provide parents with unwavering commitment to ensuring the safety, wellbeing, and emotional growth of their children through kindness and care. Though I work with the kids, parents are just as important to me as we collaborate in finding the best way for your little one(s) to thrive. Currently, I Read more am also a freelance graphic designer! My artist statement is "Bridging the gap between childlike wonder and adulthood". I use my art to express empathy, the importance of representation, wonder, and kindness in playful childlike ways. In an effort to stay connected with children in a way that prioritizes their health and well being over my monetary growth, I am a volunteer track coach for the MoBettah Track Team! I'm constantly running after them during practice and doing handstands or telling stories even after its over. I adore each one of them. Thank you truly for reading my bio and I hope to be in touch soon! As always I'm wishing you the happiest of days, take care.
