I’m Dylan, a 30-year-old manny originally from Cape Town, South Africa. While my academic background is in emergency prehospital care, with experience in fast-paced hospital environments and volunteer work with first responders, I’ve discovered a true passion in working with children.

My journey into childcare began with outdoor adventure. I spent years as a camp counselor, leading groups of children on exciting expeditions across the US, UK, and South Africa. It was during these experiences that I realized my ability to connect with young people on a profound level. I found immense joy in fostering their growth, building their confidence, and creating unforgettable memories.

I’ve also honed my childcare skills in private homes, where I’ve provided loving and attentive care, helping with daily routines, homework, and playtime. These experiences have solidified my belief that childcare is more than just a job—it’s a vocation. I’m driven by a desire to create a nurturing and stimulating environment where children can thrive.

Beyond my childcare experience, I’ve also developed a wide range of skills, including first aid, outdoor education, and adventure sports instruction.
