Hi! I’m Mya, an experienced caregiver with over 4 years working in early childhood education. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and credentialed in Toddlers & Twos and Preschool. I previously worked in corporate childcare centers and in a Reggio Emilia–inspired school environment, which helped shape my belief that children learn best through curiosity, creativity, and exploration. I practice Conscious Discipline and focus on creating a calm, respectful environment where children feel safe, understood, and supported as they grow. Families describe me as patient, attentive, and very understanding. I love incorporating music, movement, and creative play into my time with kids and enjoy planning fun, engaging activities. I’m passionate about building strong connections with children and supporting their development in a nurturing and positive way. I hope to connect with your families!

Hi! I’m Estrellita, a junior at UNC Chapel Hill. I offer child care, pet care, and household services.

I can feed, walk, and play with pets, keeping them safe and active. I’m comfortable with energetic pets and enjoy spending time making sure they’re happy and cared for. In terms of household services, I’ve helped with cleaning, running errands, and organizing. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to help families keep their homes comfortable and tidy.

After teaching journalism for 20 years at a Big Ten school, I retired to North Carolina to be closer to my family. However, I find myself missing the interaction with young people and the chance at 'teach moments' whenever those opportunities arise. I am older than some of your care givers but with that comes a varied background, I have worked in radio & TV, choreographed high school musicals, and dance competitions. As for academics, I went all the way up to but did not complete my PhD (babies came along ;). So I have written, and graded academic papers at every level from the high school level through college. In addition, I am currently helping to care for my 89 year old mother, cook part-time at a senior living retirement home and give respite care fo my 21 year old nephew who has a seizure disorder . So I feel I am well qualified to take care of your loved one, no matter their age, while also engaging them in learning activities or their favorite hobbies. Also, I grew up on a small farm so no pet, is too large, small, or exotic for me to give it some TLC while you can't be there. I am happy to do errands, light housekeeping, and homework along with the regular caregiving duties. I am hoping to find something on a regular basis but am wiling to take a job until we make sure we are the right fit for everyone involved

I have worked with kids aging from 6 weeks to 12 years old at the YMCA for a few years. I enjoy working with kids and building relationships with them and their families!
