Lilli Berlin
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Lilli. I'm a sophomore at Central Connecticut State University. I am originally from North Carolina. I received a wrestling scholarship at Western New England in Massachusetts, but I transferred to focus more on my studies and to be with family here in CT. I'm currently studying exercise science with the goal of becoming a physical therapist along with maybe teaching as well. I truly enjoy working with children of all ages and believe my background and passion for helping others make me a great fit for any situation involving kids. Being one of the oldest in my big family has been such a beautiful journey. I love watching my younger siblings and cousins grow up as I needed to step up a lot and help them. Back home in my community I coached youth league wrestlers. It fills my heart with joy to be part of their lives. From playing games to helping them with anything, every moment with them is precious. I've learned a lot and can do a lot! Can't wait for more opportunities!!

Divine Hartford
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Divine. I am a 23-year-old college student at the University of Connecticut, majoring in Business Administration and Marketing. I am bilingual and speak both French and English, which has helped me connect easily with children and families from diverse backgrounds. I grew up in a large family, where I regularly cared for my younger siblings and cousins. This experience taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment for children. In addition, I worked at an elementary school for four months as part of a Lighthouse Program, where I supported and supervised children in a structured school setting. This experience strengthened my ability to work with kids in both educational and recreational environments. I am comfortable with cooking, cleaning, and assisting with household tasks. I also have a valid driver’s license and can help with transportation when needed. I enjoy engaging children in creative activities such as painting, as well as simple and fun hairstyling. I truly enjoy working with children and take pride in creating a positive and caring environment for them.😊

Im a certified CNA with experience providing dependable, compassionate care to people of all ages. My background in healthcare has taught me patience, organization, and how to stay calm in any situation. I’m also a dog owner, so I’m very comfortable working in homes with pets and understand how important it is to care for them with the same kindness and consistency. In addition to my CNA experience, I’ve watched children of various ages for families in my community. I enjoy creating a safe, positive environment where kids feel supported, understood, and engaged. Whether helping with daily routines, light household tasks, or providing companionship, I always treat every family I work with respect and professionalism. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making life easier for the families who trust me. I look forward to bringing my skills, compassion, and strong work ethic to your home.
