Letícia $30 per hour for 1 child

As a certified teacher with a decade of childcare experience, I'm passionate about nurturing children's growth. My calm and creative personality helps me engage children in educational and fun activities. I keep parents updated on their child's day through written reports and use their preferred communication method. I'm comfortable following the household rules set by the parents and have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I'm also fluent in English and Portuguese. Adding to all, I am certified for First Aid and Child Nutrition and Cooking. By now, my priority is to keep the kids safe while nurturing a playful environment where they can develop their set of skills and personality. I`m fully vaccinated. I believe in supporting families and providing reliable care. It brings me joy to see the positive impact I have on children's lives. I would be thrilled to be a part of your family and look forward to getting to know you and your children.

Zulma $27 per hour for 1 child

| Bilingual in Spanish and have a car | Hi, there! I’m Zulma. I am offering childcare and household services. I grew up being the baby of my family until high school when my little sibling was born. Afterwards, my oldest sibling had my niece and nephew, so I started taking care of and watching over younger ones since I was 15. I currently work full-time in the non-profit sector. I was previously working in the youth sector in the East Coast and miss my kiddos! I have experience running fun events, tutoring & mentoring, driving to/from locations, preparing meals for children, and many other responsibilities. I grew up with many cats throughout my childhood and currently have one of my own, so I am comfortable handling them. Additionally, I grew up helping my mom in her housecleaning job, so I always make sure to leave a place better than it was left. Open to chatting with folks. Thank you!

"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!"
