Sarah $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Sarah, a BLS-certified healthcare worker with 10 years of experience, including time in a pediatric dental setting. I’ve worked closely with children, helping them feel comfortable and safe in medical settings, and I’m passionate about creating positive, fun experiences for kids. With my background in healthcare, I understand the importance of safety, communication, and being prepared for any situation. I’m a reliable, responsible, and caring individual who loves spending time with kids. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or keeping them entertained, I’m all about fostering a fun and safe environment. I’m experienced in managing different personalities and know how to be calm and patient when things get a little hectic. If you’re looking for someone who combines warmth, experience, and professionalism, I’d love to help out with your childcare needs!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
