Tyler $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Tyler! I'm 23 and have always loved working with kids. I started babysitting when I was younger and still do today, which made me realize how much joy I find in helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I graduated high school in 2021 and recently, I chose to follow my passion for teaching. As of August 2025, I'm studying Early Childhood Education with the goal of becoming a Kindergarten teacher. I am currently employed at a Daycare full-time since 2023. I can also help with: - Light housekeeping - Cooking & meal prep - Homework & school projects - Caring for pets I'm responsible, patient, and love keeping kids engaged with creative, fun activities while making sure they feel safe and supported.

Amy $26 per hour for 1 child

My name is Amy, I'm 29 with 8 years of paid nanny experience. I have a Childhood Development Associates and an Early Childhood Education degree. I'm certified in first aid/ CPR for both children and infants and I'm licensed to teach under the age of 12. I am safe sleep certified, and trained in water safety/survival swim. I worked as a behavioral therapist and transitioned to nannying to have a more direct impact (which has become my career), I also have a ton of experience with infants and I'm a huge fan of sensory play. I like to take kids out to teach real world skills and develop/further interests. I am very careful with the way I speak to children and try not to coddle. I prioritize learning and clear communication, so I always explain reasoning before action. I genuinely just love building little humans and watching them come into their own! I would like to work mornings but a few full days is okay in addition! If I seem like a good fit to you please reach out!
