priya $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m a registered nurse, aunt, and a proud dog mom! I began my healthcare career as a CNA in a nursing home while in nursing school, where I learned the importance of patience, compassion, and hands-on care. After becoming an RN, I worked with psychiatric patients and also completed training as a school nurse, giving me valuable experience caring for children and managing their health needs in a supportive & structured setting. Currently, I work at a medical spa, but nurturing others will always be close to my heart. Whether it’s soothing your baby to sleep, sparking imagination through stories, helping with homework, exploring the outdoors, or sharing laughter over something silly. I’m passionate about creating a safe, uplifting space where kids feel loved, confident, and free to grow. I’m also passionate about shaping the future generation and enjoy guiding kids through challenges with patience and empathy. I’d be honored to bring warmth, reliability, and genuine care into your home. 💕

Sierra $21 per hour for 1 child

I have over 8 years of childcare experience across a variety of settings, including nannying, coaching, and working in children’s programming. Most recently, I worked as a Kids Club Attendant at the Four Seasons Orlando, where I design and lead engaging activities and games in a high-energy, luxury environment. I also spent three years working in retail at Walt Disney World, where I focused on creating memorable, engaging experiences for families and children. This strengthened my ability to connect quickly with kids and bring energy and positivity into every interaction. In addition, I have extensive coaching experience with both the Savannah Sharks and Upper Merion Allstars, where I led practices and taught tumbling classes. I also coached a cheer team for children with differing abilities, which was one of the most meaningful parts of my experience. It taught me how to adapt to individual needs, build confidence, and create an inclusive, supportive environment for every child.
