“I got stuck in DC because of flight cancellations and ending up with my 3 year old daughter and prep meeting with clients for an important next day meeting. Mary Beth arrived at the hotel promptly (in advance) and with only a request that afternoon. My daughter loved her. Indeed, she was able to do things with Patina that are hard for me -- get her to draw, tell stories, get her PJs on, and get into bed on time. Terrific.”

Hello! My name is Nalani. I'm 18 years old and currently finished with high school. I offer child care services as I have 5 years of experience with babysitting children. I love babysitting and have watched kids toddler age and grade school age since I was 13 years old. I do have the responsibility of taking the public transportation to and from school and the sit. I can cook and provide fun activities for kids such as painting, drawing, music, or the playground if any nearby. I am First Aid and CPR trained. I speak English and ASL. I also have experience with children of special needs and in the autism spectrum as a special needs and autistic woman myself.
“Nalani is such an awesome, kind young lady. She was super helpful and inactive with my daughter. My daughter loved and connected with her as soon as she met her. She was super communicative as well. I would recommend families book with her.”

I have well over 5 years of experience working with youth of all ages as a babysitter, coach, assistant teacher, and through additional childcare roles during college. I have experience tutoring, helping with homework, light cleaning during services, cooking meals, caring for pets, and assisting seniors. I bring both personal and professional caregiving experience. I genuinely love children and believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and encouraging environment where they feel supported and valued. I’m flexible, respectful of different parenting styles, adaptable to each family’s needs, and I always bring a positive, caring attitude. I also have experience caring for children with disabilities.
“Tati has been watching my daughter for almost two years now, almost once a month and I trust her completely with my busy 3-year-old. My daughter loves her, which means everything to me. She’s very attentive and careful, especially since my daughter has multiple allergies, and she treats my baby girl like her own. As a girl dad, it’s not easy leaving your child with just anyone but Tati has earned my trust. She’s reliable, honest, and dependable. On a scale of 1–5, I’d give her a 6.”
