Hi,my name is Prudence. I'm a dedicated college student with over 5 years of experience caring for children of various ages. I thoroughly enjoy engaging with them through activities like park outings, playtime, and exploring their interests. My passion lies in nurturing young minds and creating meaningful connections. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, run errands and clean.

Prudence has taken care of our now 6 year old on and off for 5+ years. She is a very fun, caring and thoughtful care giver and my daughter loved engaging with her. She is a great communicator and easy to work with.

I’m Amanda, 30 years old, Mother of 2 (6 year old daughter and 4 year old son) Latina - speak fluent English and Spanish. I’ve worked in a preschool setting with children from ages 2 - 5 years old. I’m currently the School teacher at my childhood church for the children ages 2-9 years old of the congregation including my own two children. I would like to explore a new setting as a nanny and or babysitter. I enjoy working with children, it's the most rewarding job!

Amanda was exceptionally helpful and very friendly. She was great with all 3 of our kids (6 week old baby and 2 very energetic kids aged 4 and 5). I definitely recommend her and will be calling her again. She is a gem!

Estela $20 per hour for 1 child

For two decades, I've dedicated myself to nurturing young minds and creating enriching environments for children. My passion stems from witnessing their incredible growth and development. I enjoy using my creative and imaginative personality to engage children in outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and caring up to two children, ages newborn to to seven. I maintain open communication with parents, providing updated through verbal discussions or text, always respecting your preferred method. My background includes Early Childhood Education coursework, First Aid training, and CPR Training. I'm also happy to help with cooking and crafts. I hope to bring my experience and love for childcare to your family.

Geeta $28 per hour for 1 child

I’am a calm, attentive, and responsible babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I focus on creating a safe, positive environment where kids feel comfortable, heard, and engaged. I’m patient and adaptable, whether that means helping with homework, organizing fun and creative activities, or simply sticking to a child’s routine so they feel secure. I pay close attention to details—like dietary needs, bedtime schedules, and house rules—and I take those seriously. I also believe communication is key, so I make sure to keep parents informed and follow their preferences closely. At the same time, I bring a warm, friendly energy so kids see me as someone they can trust and have fun with, not just someone in charge. Overall, I aim to be dependable, nurturing, and someone both parents and children feel confident with.
