Jeannshy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Jea! I’m a childcare provider based in Arlington, VA, currently pursuing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have extensive experience working with children through teaching, camp counseling, and my current role as an RBT supporting children and young adults across a wide range of ages and needs. I provide childcare for infants through teens (0–17) and focus on creating a calm, structured, and engaging environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged. I enjoy a mix of educational and fun activities such as reading, creative play, outdoor time, crafts, and helping with homework and daily routines. In addition to childcare, I’m comfortable with light household support related to childcare needs, such as meal/snack prep, tidying, and organization. I also have some experience with pet care, particularly dogs, and am comfortable assisting with basic care needs. I’m dependable, communicative, and flexible with scheduling, including daytime care, evenings, and occasional last-minute support when available. My goal is to provide families with consistent, high-quality care they can trust!

"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!"
