Kaelah $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kaelah, I'm 24 years old and I love caring for children! I have a great passion for being a safe and trusted person in the lives of little ones. I'm also very compassionate and patient. I have extensive experience both in casual babysitting and professional childcare, including special needs care. Child development and psychology has been a very important interest of mine, one which I even research and expand my knowledge on for fun in my free time, since high school. My experience with children ranges in ages from infancy to Middle School, with birth-age 5 being my most experienced area of my educational & professional history. I also have 1 year of experience as a caretaker of teenagers with severe mental health & behavioral disorders in a group home setting. Social Emotional Development is just as important to me as academic development, and I believe that teaching children how to regulate their emotions and behave empathetically towards others alongside the common core subjects like math and reading will help them for any path they take in life. I have a diploma from a 2 year vocational school where I attended the early childhood education program and graduated from that program with a 3.4 GPA. I have CPR/First Aid/AED certification for all ages, and I have Continuing Education Credits such as: -certification in trauma informed care -certified Epi-Pen administration -completed 10hr Health & Safety Course for Georgia childcare providers -certifications in social emotional, cognitive and physical development from birth-age 5 Comfort, communication, transparency, safety, and all family members in the home (parents included) feeling cared for & having their needs relating to childcare met are my top priorities. As a mother myself, it is my goal to give the children I work with, and their parents, peace of mind in their childcare arrangements. *about my rates* they can be negotiated if your family cannot securely afford $18/hr for 1 child or $21/hr for two children. As much as possible while still ensuring that I can provide for what my family needs, I am a firm believer that finances should not be a heavy barrier to receiving safe, trustworthy and compassionate childcare.

Booked by 20 families in Austell, GA

Hi! My name is Lorrayne, and I’m 28 years old. I’ve been working in childcare since 2014 and have extensive experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. For the past 6 years, I worked with the same family, caring for their three children. I started when their youngest was just 1 month old, so I’m very comfortable with infant care and all the routines that come with it, including feeding, bottles, diaper changes, naps, soothing, and keeping little ones engaged and happy. A little about me: • CPR certified • 🗣️ Fluent in English and Portuguese • 🚗 Strong driver with a clean driving record • 🐕 Pet friendly • 💉 Fully vaccinated, including the booster I’m responsible, reliable, patient, and nurturing, and I genuinely love what I do. Caring for children is more than just a job to me — it’s something I do with a lot of love, patience, and dedication. ❤️ I don’t have many bookings on the app because I used it for a while, took a break, and recently started using it again. I do have some great reviews from families I’ve worked with, and I’d be happy to share more about my experience! I’d love to learn more about your family and the position. Thank you for considering me! 😊

"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!"
