Natanya $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a postgraduate adult with over six years of professional experience as a babysitter, complemented by more than fifteen years of hands-on caregiving as an older sister to my younger sibling. From an early age, I developed a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and attentiveness, which has naturally carried into my work with children. My experience spans supporting children’s daily routines, fostering a safe and nurturing environment, and engaging them in age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence. I am passionate about spending time with children and supporting their growth in a positive, caring way. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors and traveling, interests that help me stay active, curious, and adaptable—qualities I bring into my caregiving approach. I value meaningful connections, clear communication, and creating experiences where children feel supported, understood, and encouraged to explore the world around them.
