Hi there, my name is Tashi, I’ve been working with children and seniors for about a decade. I’m a total people’s person so I absolutely love what I do. I know that it is imperative to help the children are seniors that I’m working with to challenge themselves every day. I can help with a variety of things, cooking, cleaning and errands.
“We've met a number of different childcare providers, but no one like Tashionna. Our kids LOVE her! She is so good with them, our youngest always asks "when is Tashionna coming back?!" As parents, we appreciate that she is always reliable and professional. She also helps us out when we need a little extra flexibility. Every parent knows the value of that! Tashionna is bilingual and has been teaching our kids some Spanish. That was something we hadn't thought about, but the educational value of it was a nice surprise. Our oldest is in high school now and he really excels in his foreign language class, I know she was a big influence. She's a fantastic care-giver, we highly recommend her. - Claire”
Hey there! My name is Gwendolyn, and I have over 15 years of babysitting experience. I have cared for children of all ages, including working as a summer nanny and supporting children on the spectrum. I especially enjoy working with creative and imaginative kids, and I love encouraging fun activities, crafts, and play. In addition to childcare, I regularly care for pets and have experience with senior dogs and cats, including administering medication. I am also available to assist as a household helper-whether that’s light cooking, cleaning, running errands, or helping with day-to-day tasks. And a bit about me: I love all things vintage fashion, Disney, and American Girl dolls. I’m really into history, storytelling, and creative hobbies, which is probably why I get along so well with imaginative kids. I’m friendly, reliable, and genuinely enjoy getting to know and build ongoing relationships with the families I work with.
“Gwen was so great. When I asked my 5 year old if he liked her he said “I love her” 🥰 Will definitely be hiring her again!”

"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!"
