Divine $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.😊

"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!"
