I’ve been teaching in grades 1-6 for the past 17 years. I have daily experience working with 25+ children. I am dependable and hardworking. I currently have two pitbull dogs but grew up mucking stalls for our horses, taking care of various types of birds, reptiles and fish. My mom is a senior who is on oxygen so I am familiar with the frequent doctor visits and needs of seniors. I am a full time teacher so I am currently looking to work during the summer months and extended holidays.

Maya $18 per hour for 1 child

I’ve always had a passion for working with kids and hope to become a pediatric occupational therapist. I started babysitting at 13 and have cared for children of all ages through babysitting, nannying, and volunteering in church nurseries. For the past two years, I’ve been working as a nanny and currently care for a 2-year-old and an 8-month-old, which has given me valuable experience with routines, developmental milestones, and infant/toddler care. Families describe me as compassionate, patient, creative, and dependable. I love engaging children in fun and enriching activities, while also providing a safe, nurturing environment. As a full-time student and nanny, I mainly pick up extra babysitting shifts on weekends and occasional evenings, so parents can enjoy reliable help when they need it most. It would be an honor to support your family and care for your little ones!
