Madlen $16 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Madlen, I am cape verdean and I have eight years of experience caring for my younger brother, an infant to his current age of eight and my younger cousins. I enjoy helping children learn through play and planning activities that are fun, engaging, and educational. My goal is always to make sure your child feels safe, happy, and cared for! I also have experience caring my pets as well since I was 13. I have a 1 year old dog so I’m used to feeding, walking, playing, and giving lots of attention! I like making sure they are safe and comfy. Im a college student in Florida who is patient, calm and friendly, which helps children feel comfortable. Im available weekends all day and some weekday evenings and I'm happy to work with your schedule as much as possible! I follow household rules and routines very carefully and can provide updates of your child's day through messages, calls or in person conversations-any methods that works for you! split my time between Rhode Island and Florida - I'm in Florida during the school year for college and back home in Rhode Island for breaks and summers. I always keep my availability up to date, so you'll know exactly where I am and when. Im comfortable caring for up to three children at once, from infant to preteen! I can also help with homework, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and pet care if need. If you're looking for someone reliable , flexible snd caring, I'd be happy to support your family!

I have 2 dogs and a cat so I love animals! Proud fur mama! I have plenty of recommendation letters from other parents and families that I have helped raise from 8 week old infants to preschool and have taught their children available upon request. I love caregiving because I love helping and providing mommies and daddies with a sense of relief while also helping them engage and advance their children’s development while they grow.
