Booked by 17 families in Fairburn, GA

Hi! My name is Mia and I’m a super helper! I am the oldest of 6 and have had 5+ years of experience sitting for my own family, family friends/outside hires, in classroom and daycare work. I love to incorporate arts and crafts into my activities and like to follow the guidelines of the parent when it comes to screen time. I have experience with regular pet care (cat & dog), and elderly help and household chores.

Booked by 1 family in Fairburn, GA

Hi my name is LaDonna Russell, most people just call me Donna. I am a 31 year old woman who loves working with kids. I have had experience with all ages and have most recently been working with a few families with children from birth-4 years old. I am CPR certified (BLS renewal date 04/19/2026). I love reading and helping little ones learn about the world around them. I am willing to help out with little chores like tidying and laundry. I am comfortable working with breast milk and formula. I know each family does things differently and I look forward to learning what works best with each family individually.

“LaDonna has been an absolute blessing caring for my son Xander. She approaches him with so much patience, warmth, and genuine care — she takes the time to understand his needs and always makes him feel safe and supported. I’ve noticed real trust build between them, and that means everything to me as his mom. LaDonna is reliable, attentive, and treats Xander like family. I couldn’t ask for a better caregiver, and I recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for someone truly dedicated to their child’s wellbeing.”

I’ve been working with toddlers for the past 3 to 5 years now I am very lovely patient and some people say I’m a baby whisperer. I’ve been taking care of kids since I was eight.

Shaniya $10 per hour for 1 child

I was a junior volunteer in the children's ministry at my church for 2 years when I was in high school. I'm currently a student at Jacksonville University where I also volunteered at the on-campus daycare center. I'm a Dance major so I'm very active and in shape. Being able to teach young children to dance would be a plus!

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 13 families in Fairburn, GA

Hi! My name is Keila! I am offering part-time care for children as well as tutoring services. I am Educated, Fun, and Totally Love Children! This has been my field of expertise for over 10 years! It's who I am! Children are my vibe! They keep me youthful! I have been working with children in private and public, and church settings my entire life! I have experience with children of all ages including infants.

“We had such a great experience Keila! She was wonderful with both our 2.5-year-old and our 6-month-old, and they both really enjoyed spending time with her. She came prepared with fun, age-appropriate activities to keep them engaged, which we really appreciated. She also went above and beyond by gifting our 2.5-year-old a book and workbook, which was such a thoughtful gesture. We especially appreciated that she regularly sent us updates and pictures throughout the day. It gave us peace of mind and helped us feel comfortable knowing how the kids were doing while we were away. She was caring, thoughtful, proactive, and clearly enjoys working with children. We would definitely recommend her to other families!”

"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!"
