Alisi $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a licensed social worker currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for childcare. I have years of experience caring for children and was a full-time nanny before starting university. I’ve cared for children of different ages and love creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and supported. I also have nieces and a nephew who I absolutely adore, so spending time with children has always been a big part of my life. Through my professional experience, I’ve also had the opportunity to work with pediatric patients, which has given me additional experience understanding children’s individual needs, personalities, and emotions. I genuinely love working with children and would be happy to help with everything from playtime and activities to homework, meals, routines, and bedtime. My goal is always for both the child and parents to feel comfortable, safe, and confident in my care
