Booked by 1 family in Forest Park, 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.”

Danesha $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Danesha. I currently work with young children in both an elementary school setting with kindergartners and at a daycare. I truly enjoy being a part of children’s early development, helping them learn, grow, and build confidence during such important stages of their lives. Working with kids requires patience, creativity, and compassion, and I take pride in showing up with those qualities every day. Outside of work, I am a dedicated mother to three beautiful children who mean everything to me. Being their mom is my greatest joy and motivation. I strive to create a loving, supportive environment for them while also balancing my responsibilities at work. My experiences as both a parent and an educator allow me to connect deeply with children and families, understanding their needs from multiple perspectives.

I’m an experienced behavioral health professional with several years of experience working with children and families, including children with autism and developmental needs. I hold a master’s degree in psychology and am currently pursuing my Doctor of Behavioral Health. I’m patient, dependable, organized, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment for kids. My professional background has given me experience supporting routines, managing challenging behaviors, communicating with families, and meeting each child where they are. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, activities, meals, light household tasks, and maintaining daily routines. After years in healthcare operations and leadership, I’m looking forward to getting back to more direct, meaningful work with children and families while completing my doctorate.

Star $14 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Star. I have extensive experience in childcare, having babysat my younger cousins from the time they were toddlers (ages 2, 4, and 5) until they reached middle school. My responsibilities included preparing snacks, changing diapers, and assisting with potty training. I also helped with their early education by reading stories and singing educational songs to teach them the alphabet, colors, and seasons in a fun and engaging way. In addition to caring for my cousins, I also babysat my younger sister, where I played an active role in her early development. I assisted with potty training, encouraged her learning through interactive activities, and provided a nurturing environment that supported her growth. Beyond direct childcare, I am open to handling household tasks such as laundry and cleaning, ensuring a well-maintained and organized space for children. Beyond babysitting, I also gained classroom experience as an assistant teacher at Brit Elementary, where I worked with young students in reading and math. In this role, I helped create a structured and supportive learning environment by managing classroom behavior, calming students, and promoting positive interactions. I focused on developing students’ interpersonal skills, social confidence, and self-esteem while encouraging a love for learning. My experience in both home and classroom settings has helped me develop strong communication, patience, and leadership skills. I take pride in creating a safe, fun, and educational atmosphere for children of all ages. Whether through teaching, caregiving, or maintaining a structured environment, I am dedicated to supporting children's development and well-being.

"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!"
