About me

Hello families! I'm Janae Robinson, and I am a Ball State, BFA acting graduate. I absolutely love working with kids and I have plenty experience with all ages. A few things I have done in the past are camp counseling, tutoring, babysitting overnight/early morning, working with child actors in a show, traveling with families/children all over the city, as well as nannying for other companies in this lovely concrete jungle! With all of this experience I have, I am well prepared for duties with infants. Such as bonding, bathing, changing, feeding, napping, and other routinely things that are needed. I also am very knowledgeable with all ages up to pre teen! I am very active, personable, communicative, playful, positive, kind, gentle, and patient. When it comes to handling any issues that may occur, I am very good with discipline and also enjoy working with the parents on the best tools to use when dealing with a child who’s having “a bit of a day.” (We’ve all been there). I am confident in the skills I have gained, as well as my personality to adapt quickly with your kid(s), and your family lifestyle! Due to my career in acting, I am very committed and have very open availability. I also understand things happen last minute, especially in this crazy industry, so I am great with staying on top of schedules, and conversations. I am very reliable and will make your kid(s) feel safe, and comfortable. Kind of like their big sister!

I have worked with children since I was about 12 years old, and have had numerous jobs in childcare to this present day. It started with family members who were younger than me. I would only watch them for a few hours until the adults came home. Then I started to babysit for family friends and would get paid for it. I received my CPR training, and went through the babysitting classes offered in day camps. These age ranges of kids that I watched were 3-7. I worked as a summer camp counselor in 2018. I worked with 4-5, 7-8, and 10-11 year olds. My duties were as follows: tutor reading and math in the morning, help serve breakfast, help plan out the week of activities and lessons, play games, go on field trips, and help run after camp care for parents who worked late. Later in college, I worked with 2 children actors in 2 different shows I did. One of them was 10 years old, and the other one I worked with in 2022 was 12 years old. My duties was to take a training course through my school to properly handle children in the rehearsal room and on stage. We had a lot of scenes together, so I had to help watch her back stage.

I love to be active and get out of the house. I love to try new foods, see new things, and experience different cultures. I love to read, learn, and shop! Watching tv/movies are also very therapeutic for me. All of these thing I listed kids are also interested in and growing to love! I pride myself with being kind to others, and to accept the beauty of being different. I would love to be apart of your child's life and help them navigate this weird world we live in!
