JANAEA $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Fairburn, GA

Hello! My name is Janaea, but I go by Ms. Jaye. I am a CPR-certified childcare professional with over 20 years of experience working with children from infancy through high school. I am currently a K–12 substitute teacher in Fayette County, Georgia, and previously worked in Los Angeles, California as a preschool and kindergarten teacher, as well as a K–12 substitute. I am known for being warm, nurturing, and dependable, with a natural ability to balance fun, structure, and learning. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and encouraged — and I bring that mindset into every home I work in. Whether it’s imaginative play, homework support, reading time, or calm routines before bed, I meet children where they are while maintaining clear boundaries and gentle discipline. Parents often appreciate my calm presence, strong communication, and educator’s eye for development and behavior. I look forward to supporting your family with attentive, trustworthy care.

Patty $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m an educator of 29 years including elementary, middle, and high school. I am an instructional coach for my day job. I have a Bachelors, Masters, and a Specialist degree. I can house sit, take care of infants, and kids under or over 10. I’m a mentor of kids and teachers with 20+ years experience. I also write children’s books - “Jacoby the BumbleBee” on Amazon. I love kids, and I do not play about kids. They are precious and a blessing. I am an empty nester. I live in Lake Spivey, a gated and beautiful community. I have three astute, adult kids. My oldest is a child and adult therapist along with her husband Dr. L. My second is a 20 year cancer survivor and was an actor extra at Tyler Perry Studios in the movie “Wakanda Forever”. He loves acting in plays as well. My youngest is in the military, and was a gymnast in the Junior Olympics. She loves animals. They all attended college and live in Fayetteville and Peachtree City. I have two elementary school grandkids, and we recently went camping in Tallulah Falls and Tallulah Gorge State Park. We had a blast! We even roasted hotdogs and marshmallows making tantalizing s’mores. So yummy!! They spent some of their summer in Paris with a special visit to Disneyland. They took the Eurotrain to London to visit and engage in several sights including Big Ben. I am super excited about babies. I am a patient and kind woman. I love parents regardless of race, gender, political views, religion, education, and beliefs. I have high morals and values. I do not use profanity. I have never had a drink of alcohol or smoke ever in my life. I have never been arrested, and I’ve never had a mugshot. . I love to have fun, play games, travel, read, write, eat seafood, and watch documentaries and Disney movies. I love STEM activities! . I like to smile and laugh. I can also be firm and assertive. I have a passport if there is a need to accommodate you for overseas travel. I have a Gold membership for Carnival cruise too. I will take the kids right on to the camps and pick them up for dinner. I support date nights! Let’s travel the world! I also read to keep abreast of world views. I’m intelligent. I can be called Aunty Patty or Ms. Patty. I don’t mind helping with homework as I’m also the coordinator at my school for after school tutoring. I just love kids! It’s in my blood. I talk to kids. I can reach kids. They will have a voice with me, love me, and I will be present and a present to your kids. Was that a pun?

Kim $20 per hour for 1 child

I hold a Bachelor’s degree from University of Massachusetts in Sociology, and a Master’s degree from Boston University in Education. I am certified in Elementary Education (K-5) for the state of Georgia. I am working on my certification as a Registered Behavior Therapist working with children on the Autism Spectrum. I have several years of hands-on caregiving experience working with children.. I’ve cared for children ranging from infants to pre-teens, assisting with daily routines, meal preparation, homework help, school drop-offs, and engaging activities that support their development. I always aim to create a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where kids feel comfortable and supported. In addition to childcare, I’ve provided senior care support, including companionship, medication reminders, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and assistance with mobility. I understand the importance of patience, empathy, and respect when working with older adults and I strive to help them maintain their independence while ensuring their safety and comfort. I’m dependable, compassionate, and highly organized. I communicate clearly with families and always prioritize safety. I’m calm under pressure, adaptable to changing needs, and genuinely enjoy helping others. My goal as a caregiver is to provide reliable, high-quality support while building trust and meaningful connections with the families I work with.

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.

"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!"
