Erika $24 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Erika. I am a mother of three and an educator. I am a former Preschool teacher with 20+ years experience. I have worked with children as young as one, up to school age children. As an educator I believe young children learn positive behavior by watching and interacting with their caregivers every day. When caregivers model kindness, patience, and respect ,children begin to understand how to manage emotions, build healthy relationships, and make good choices.

$25 per hour for 1 child

I have a lot of valuable experience, both with raising 3 children, teaching preschool, babysitting, and helping my 104 year old grandma with technology!

“Michelle (or Mimi as my toddler calls her) is the best. She’s been watching my very active son once a week for over a year, and I cannot emphasize how helpful she is. She’s patient, she focuses all of her attention on him and she makes playing fun. My son is absolutely exhausted after Michelle’s visits. He wakes up some mornings asking to “play date with Mimi” or will sing songs that she has taught him. Now that I have an infant too, she watches both boys with ease. Caretaking is her speciality. She’s very gentle and kind. Michelle is punctual, respectful and dependable. Whenever she comes over, I know I don’t have to worry about anything, she’s got in under control. I can go to work or run errands without hesitation.”

Savannah $22 per hour for 1 child

I am a college student majoring in Psychology and currently pursuing certifications as a Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) and Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). I have recently completed a CPR/AED certification course and have more than three years of experience providing childcare. My experience includes babysitting, pet care, cooking, and performing basic household responsibilities such as cleaning and laundry. I also have professional experience as an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Behavior Technician, where I worked with individuals on the autism spectrum, including individuals who were nonverbal. This experience strengthened my ability to provide attentive, compassionate, and individualized care. I enjoy working with children and take pride in creating a safe, supportive, and responsible environment. I understand the importance of maintaining awareness of children’s whereabouts and well-being at all times while ensuring they feel comfortable, cared for, and respected.

"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!"
