Miriam 5 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in River Rouge, MI

Hi My name is Miriam but everyone calls me Mia. I work as a Pediatric Dental Assistant so experience with kids is a given. I work well with all ages 0 months to teens. I speak fluent English and Spanish and my personality is very bubbly. I love working with kids and I am great with kids who require a lot of TLC when scared or nervous. I have experience with special needs patients and I adapt very well in these circumstances. I love teaching kids new things and helping them understand everyday subjects or matters they do not comprehend. My level of patience is out of this world and I love to make little ones laugh. I am also a live in nanny every other week and have been for the past 7years.

“Mia is awesome! She has a bubbly personality and was wonderful with our 1 yr old son. I would hire her again anytime. Absolutely recommend!”

Terra $23 per hour for 1 child

I am a full-time registered nurse, looking for extra work in the evenings during weekdays with a little more flexibility on weekends. I have a strong background in caring for children and elderly. I am an extremely kind and compassionate caregiver who takes pride in the successful outcome of my patients. I am a mother of four adult children and also have many years in pediatric care, as well. I am looking to find a family who has strong values in the care of their loved ones and is looking for compassionate and thorough care that meets the needs of the families I work for. As a nurse, I am experienced in all age groups and have worked in a variety of nursing settings. I also am a very strong animal lover, who believe that pets our family and would care for years as if they were my own. Please reach out if you are interested in learning more about me.

"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!"
