I have experiences working for several families from different backgrounds. Which allows me to communicate and adjust easily with their culture and values in terms of giving cares to the kids. From newborns to pre-teens, I have given the best care and excellent performance. I have a degree and experience as a tutor, so I am able to help with the homework, art and craft, science experiment, story telling and reading, and doing activities outside the house such as swimming, going to the park, biking, tennis, soccer, basketball, and any other activities that will help your kids growth! I can help with meal preparation for babies, toddlers, and teens. As well as helping with light chores. Please contact me if you have any questions about my qualifications. Will be happy to meet you in person! Thank you 😊

She did an amazing job and was extremely helpful!

Currently, I’m a Behavioral Aide in multiple school districts, mainly focusing on priority jobs from preschool to high school. I specialize with children that have an IEP and/or BIP. I do follow a positive discipline model as that’s important to me. If you have an infant, I know how hard it is to trust someone you don’t know. I’m 100% open to being on camera. I’m background checked, finger printed, clean driving record, all vaccines are current. Myself, I have two amazing daughters 9 and 14. I’ve been fortunate to be a stay at home Mom until they’ve no longer needed me (sigh, lol). I’m open to all jobs, even the last minute sick calls when you have to work. I did graduate from CNA school in October. I pride myself in adhering to the parents requests on what they want for their children.

I’ve over 8 years of experience caring for kids from 6 months to 10 years old, both as a nanny and former Au Pair. I’m CPR certified and experienced with sleep routines, baby-led weaning, potty training, and age-appropriate developmental activities. I currently work full-time (Monday–Friday) with a wonderful family and have been with them for the past 22 months, the little boy is currently two and half years and I have been with him since he was seven months old. I’m now looking for part-time or occasional weekend opportunities to support other families who may need an extra set of hands. I love creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Whether it’s crafts, music, dancing, reading, or outdoor play, I enjoy helping kids learn, explore, and grow. I also focus on emotional support, helping little ones understand and express their feelings in a healthy way. I’m happy to assist with children-related tasks like tidying play areas, organizing clothes, preparing meals, and driving to activities or fun outings. I’ve a valid driver’s license and feel very comfortable around pets (I’ve a dog and two kittins). I would love to be that extra helping hand for your family — someone you can trust, rely on, and feel at ease with while your little ones are in caring hands.

Laura was on time and was great with my 9mo old son! Followed directions and everything went smoothly! Will definitely have her back to help with all 3 of my kids!
