Mincie 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mincie. I have over 10 years of experience caring for children, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’ve worked in a licensed daycare, provided one-on-one tutoring, and served as a summer camp counselor, giving me strong skills in safety, engagement, and age-appropriate activities. Parents describe me as patient, dependable, and calm, even in busy or high-energy situations. I love creating fun, screen-free activities, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, and keeping routines consistent. I always prioritize communication and safety, and I treat every child with kindness and respect. I’m available for evenings, weekends, and occasional last-minute care. I would love to support your family — please feel free to reach out with any questions!

I highly recommend Mincie for any family looking for someone dependable and professional. She is responsible, punctual, and communicates clearly, which made it easy to trust her with our child. She has a calm, patient approach and handled daily routines, meals, and activities with confidence. She was attentive, safety-focused, and genuinely engaged with our child at all times. We always felt comfortable knowing our child was in capable hands, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to other families.

Graisen $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Graisen. I'm currently a doctoral student in the field of Occupational Therapy. Caring for others has always been a huge part of who I am, and it's one of the reasons I chose my career. In addition to babysitting experience with children of different ages, I'm the oldest sibling and cousin in my family, so I've naturally grown up helping care for younger children. I've also helped care for my aunt with Down syndrome, which has taught me patience, compassion, adaptability, and the importance of meeting people where they are. These experiences have shaped the caregiver I am today. I'm responsible, dependable, patient, and creative. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and supported. Whether it's helping with homework, planning activities, preparing meals, sticking to routines, or simply being someone they can trust, I always strive to provide attentive and compassionate care. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, pet care, and other household tasks to make life a little easier for busy families. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your loved ones, and I would be honored to provide reliable, thoughtful care for 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!"
