Booked by 1 family in Buffalo, MN

I have always been said to have a gift for caring for babies even when I was a baby myself. I have always wanted to help others which is why I am headed for the medical field. I am currently pursuing a BSN in biology with a minor in psychology, child development is something I have always been amused by and I find it an honor to be a part of a child’s development. Growing up the legal working age was 16 so I was babysitting for friends and family from ages 10-15. I still offer my services to this day. I have been a tutor to older kids, and a caregiver to their younger siblings while keeping the house tidy. At most I have cared for 3 siblings all at different developmental stages (ages 1-9). I have cared for newborns as well. I am a direct care professional for adults with special needs half time, I was also a PCA for elderly memory challenged clients.

Solangie $20 per hour for 1 child

My personality is very valuable in childcare. I am a kind, responsible, and honest person. People who know me tell me that I am very charming and patient in my work and personal life. I work hard at everything I am willing to do. Also, I know how to communicate effectively with others, which I think is very important when working with families. Of note, I have experience in childcare and I am very enthusiastic. Children always connect with me. I think I have good vibes to get along with others. As for household chores, I try to do them on time and efficiently. I have experience cooking meals and preparing healthy snacks, driving children, and providing them with activities to enjoy in their daily lives.

Nancy $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a reliable, calm, and experienced caregiver with a background in working with kids and supporting families. I’m also a mom, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust in your home. I have experience with school-age children and teens, and I’m especially strong with homework help, organization, and keeping kids on track in a positive, low-stress way. I’m patient, engaging, and good at explaining things in a way kids actually understand. I’m happy to help with light household tasks, errands, and keeping things running smoothly while you’re busy. I also enjoy being active with kids, whether that’s getting outside, doing creative activities, or just making sure they feel comfortable and supported. Families would describe me as dependable, easy to communicate with, and someone who genuinely cares. I’m flexible and available for last-minute or occasional needs as well.

"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!"
