Tae $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm an experienced and caring childcare provider with over 3 years of babysitting experience working with multiple families. I also have experience working as a toddler teacher and teaching children in Taiwan, which has helped me develop strong communication, patience, and classroom management skills. I genuinely enjoy working with children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, explore, and grow. I love keeping children engaged through creative activities, games, reading, and age-appropriate learning experiences. I'm dependable, responsible, patient, and attentive to each child's individual needs. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in someone's care, and I always strive to build that trust with both parents and children. I look forward to meeting your family and providing quality, attentive care!

Jasmine $20 per hour for 1 child

I have over a year of experience working in a school setting, primarily with K3 and K5 age groups, where I supported young children in their daily routines, learning activities, and social development. Working in the classroom has helped me build strong skills in patience, communication, and creating a structured yet fun environment for kids. In addition to my school experience, I have also babysat on the side, giving me one-on-one experience caring for children and managing responsibilities. I enjoy planning engaging activities such as walks around the park, playing games in the backyard, arts and crafts, reading storybooks, outdoor scavenger hunts, and creative play that keeps children active and entertained. My background has helped me become dependable, attentive, and confident in providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can learn, grow, and feel comfortable.

Margaret $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Margo. I come from a large family and have been surrounded by children my entire life. I was raised helping care for my younger sibling and cousins, and I am now a very involved aunt to 14 nieces and nephews whom I am extremely close to. Caring for children has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. I have experience babysitting infants through 10-year-olds, including children with special needs, who I have a particular heart for. I am warm, fun, personable, and highly adaptable. I do well with different family dynamics and parenting styles, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I love cooking, baking, and am able to drive kids around, house or pet sit. I take my role as a caretaker seriously and truly enjoy building meaningful, trusting relationships with both children and parents.
