Hi there! I’m Miracle, a 24-year-old babysitter with a real passion for child development and care.

I focus on making sure each child feels supported and engaged, whether we’re playing, learning, or just hanging out. If you’re looking for someone who’s both reliable and enthusiastic about caring for your little ones, I’d love to chat and see how I can help.

Hi, I'm Gabriela, a nanny and I had been au pair with experience in childcare. I recently took care of two girls, ages 3 and 6, organizing creative and educational activities to support their development. I enjoy painting, reading stories, and doing crafts with children. I also have skills to help with homework and encourage positive habits. Additionally, I have experience caring for pets, including walking, feeding, and playing. I am comfortable with large animals and those that shed. I also offer light household services such as basic cleaning, laundry, and organization. I am responsible, patient, and reliable. I’d love to help with your little ones or pets

$25 per hour for 1 child

I have had the privilege of working as a dedicated nanny, providing exceptional care and support to children from various backgrounds. It has been incredibly rewarding to witness their growth and development, and I take pride in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for them. For three years, I had the wonderful opportunity to work as a toddler teacher at La Petite. This experience allowed me to contribute to the early education of young children and shape their journey in discovering the world around them. I gained valuable insights into child development, honed my classroom management skills, and developed engaging activities that helped foster their curiosity and imagination. During my two years as a tutor, I had the pleasure of assisting students in their academic journeys. By offering personalized instruction and guidance, I was able to help them overcome challenges and reach their full potential. Adapting my teaching methods to cater to their individual learning styles was crucial in ensuring their success, and witnessing their progress was incredibly fulfilling. As a substitute teacher, I had the opportunity to step into various classrooms and adapt quickly to new environments. This role allowed me to gain versatility and resilience, managing different classroom dynamics and delivering lessons across various subjects. It was a dynamic and fast-paced experience that further sharpened my skills as an educator. Most recently, I spent two years as a kindergarten teacher, a role that brought me immense joy and fulfillment. Guiding young children through their first experiences in formal education was a privilege. I designed engaging lesson plans, fostered a positive and inclusive learning environment, and helped my students develop academically, socially, and emotionally. Witnessing their growth and enthusiasm for learning was truly gratifying. Collectively, my seven years as a nanny, three years as a toddler teacher at La Petite, two years as a tutor, substitute teacher, and kindergarten teacher have shaped me into a passionate and versatile educator. My commitment to the well-being and development of children, along with my ability to create engaging and enriching experiences, make me confident in my skills and excited for future opportunities in the field.
