Hi, I'm Ms. Karen, a former Early Childhood Educator. I have over 17 years of experience teaching children ages 6 wks to 12 yrs old. Let me make your life a little easier by caring for your child while you run errands or go out for a night on the town. I am professional, nurturing, punctual and organized. I look forward to meeting you. By the way, I am allergic to cats and dogs!
Hello, I have been working with children for many years and adore working with all children, especially, the terrible two's! I have cared for both of my elderly parents, and many pets through the years. I would like to work with many more.
Hello ✨my name is Oriannie. I am currently seeking a position as a nanny, a role I truly carry out with love, patience, and dedication. I genuinely enjoy caring for children, supporting their development, and creating a safe, happy, and nurturing environment for them and their families. I am a responsible, caring, and trustworthy person with experience providing quality childcare. I am currently available and very interested in a full-time position. I have attached my resume and would be happy to connect with any family looking for someone they can truly trust. I am a registered nurse, and my credentials have been officially recognized (validated) in the United States; therefore, I do not need a separate CPR certification. I would be happy to provide copies of my academic transcripts and other documentation. Yes, I drive to work. I take full responsibility for the baby's care; my duties include preparing meals and handling everything related to the baby, such as light housekeeping and facilitating routines that support their development. I can provide references from families I have worked with previously. Spanish is my native language, though this has never been an obstacle to my work. I hold a valid work permit for the United States ✨✨💗
Hi! My name is Zamzam. I’m an experienced caregiver, educator, and working professional with a genuine love for helping others. I’m currently working on a passion project and looking to earn some extra income doing something I’ve always enjoyed—caring for and supporting others! I have experience caring for people of all ages, from infants and young children to older adults. My background as both a caregiver and educator has taught me the importance of patience, communication, reliability, and creating an environment where people feel safe and comfortable. I’m compassionate, dependable, and easy to communicate with, and I’m happy to work with families to understand their routines, preferences, and what makes their household run smoothly. I also have my own reliable vehicle, which gives me flexibility with transportation, activities, errands, and outings. Whether you’re looking for someone to keep your little ones safe and engaged, help with everyday routines, or simply be an extra set of dependable hands, I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
