Hello Families! I'm excited to have this opportunity to introduce myself. I absolutely adore working with kids because their innocence and curiosity bring out the best in me. I am searching for a job that allows me to be a trusted partner for families, offering them peace of mind and support in their parenting journey. I started working with kids 3 years ago, when I would help out my cousins with their journey as first-time mothers, I know it wasn't easy caring for a newborn child for the first time and I really started to enjoy it. I would help in any way that I could, whether it's babysitting, or helping clean around the house. I do enjoy caring for animals as well, and I am willing to assist in pet care.

Booked by 1 family in Palm Beach, FL

Hi! My name is Kelly and I am a college senior with years of experience caring for children of all ages, from almost infants and toddlers to school-aged kids. I’ve helped raise my niece and nephews and started helping with childcare back home at a young age, so creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment became my day to day at some point. I love helping kids learn new things, whether it’s homework, numbers, new words, or just being curious about the world. I’m patient, responsible, and always focused on keeping them safe and happy. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help around the house with light cleaning, house sitting, organizing, and running errands. I also have experience caring for pets, especially cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, you name it. I’m here to support your family however I can with care that’s thoughtful and reliable.

Kelly is such a sweet, kind, and honest person. My kids adored her company. Kelly made us feel very comfortable. I highly recommend her.

I love cats and dogs, and I’ll be happy to care for pets, all my life I have been a pet mom (dogs and cats), and I'm able to go for a walk, play, and feed your furry baby.

Hi! I’m kalani :) I’m a 21-year-old college student and I love working with kids! I’ve been an afterschool counselor, camp counselor, and a substitute at an early learning center, so I’ve had experience with children of all different ages.
