Kris $18 per hour for 1 child

My name is Kris and I am a very experienced care giver. I have raised three children and have just become a grandmother. I have worked in childcare centers, group homes for adults, teens and seniors. I have done PCA work as well. I am in between jobs now so thought this would be something to keep me busy. I am a pet owner (2 dogs 1 cat) and a home owner. I understand the trust it takes to invite someone into your home to care for it and your loved ones. Maybe I will be a good fit for you and your family.

Raven $22 per hour for 1 child

With several plus years of hands-on experience in childcare, I bring a nurturing, responsible, and energetic presence to every family I work with. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to school-aged—adapting to each child’s unique personality, developmental stage, and needs. My approach focuses on creating a safe, engaging, and loving environment where children can thrive emotionally, socially, and intellectually. I’m skilled in daily routines including feeding, diapering, naptime, and bedtime, as well as organizing age-appropriate activities like arts and crafts, educational games, outdoor play, and reading time. I also support homework help and encourage positive behavior through gentle guidance and consistent routines. Parents trust me not only for my reliability and attention to detail, but also for my genuine love for children and ability to bond with them quickly. Whether it’s managing busy household schedules, handling unexpected situations with calmness, or simply providing a comforting presence, I am committed to supporting families with professionalism and care. I am currently enrolled as a college student, balancing my academic goals with my passion for childcare. I am also in the process of completing my CPR and First Aid certification to ensure even greater peace of mind for the families I work with.

"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!"
