Yajaira 2 reviews

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Monrovia, CA

Hi- my name is Yajaira (pronounced ya-hi-ra). I’m currently a Behavior Technican working with autistic kiddos throughout my work experience, I’ve developed strong skills working with infants, toddlers, teens, and children with disabilities or developmental challenges. I’m currently looking for a family that could use some extra help on the weekends Sat/Sun as I continue in my job helping kids and continue school. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housekeeping like organizing, tidying up, washing dishes, baby laundry, and taking out trash if time allows. I love preparing nutritious snacks, baking, and creating fun, engaging activities. Working with children has always held a special place in my heart that its never felt like just a job my passion to help kids drew me to begin helping out kiddos with autism by teaching them reassurance, redirection in their good/bad behaviors, play/learn fun new activities, etc. I’m available now and my hourly rate is $30. If you’re interested or have any questions, feel free to message me or email me at [removed]. Looking forward to connecting with you! Warmly, Yajaira

Yajaira has worked for me in the past, she did a really great job taking care of my newborn making sure that my baby’s station was clean also went above and beyond by picking up after my baby. Made sure linens were clean and focused on things that weren’t in her pay range. I loved that about yajaira. She made sure my daughter would take her vitamins in time, made sure my daughter would get playtime and made sure she would would take.a bath time in time. Yajaira would make sure of it all. 100% would recommend!

Naz 2 reviews
Los Angeles
$25 per hour for 1 child

I have extensive experience caring for children from infancy through 10+ years old, as well as experience working with children in a school environment. My background as a harpist and artist allows me to engage creatively with kids through music, imaginative play, and hands-on activities. I love teaching, spending time outdoors, making snacks, helping with household chores, and being playful and silly with the children I care for. I’m warm, attentive, reliable, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for families.

Naz helped care for my daughter Rumi from the time she was 1 year old until 3.5 years old on an as-needed basis, and she was truly wonderful with her. She is incredibly gentle, patient, reliable, and responsive, and always created a calm, nurturing environment around Rumi. What stood out most to me was how naturally caring and attentive she is with children. Rumi absolutely adored spending time with her. Naz brought so much creativity and warmth into their time together through music, play, art, and outdoor activities. She also has a very grounded and calming presence, which made me feel completely comfortable leaving Rumi in her care. I would wholeheartedly recommend Naz to any family looking for someone trustworthy, kind, engaging, and genuinely excellent with children.
