Chioma $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Chioma and I'm a QPH Evaluator at Medicaid. I am offering child care, senior care, some pet care (minimal experience with this but open to learning) and household services. My entire career has been devoted to providing care to people in different areas of their lives whether it be through healthcare, companionship or offering resources for people to feel cared and loved. I love being a caregiver and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 19 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring etc. I have 4 years of experience working at schools as a childcare supervisor and after care attendant, so trust me when I say your kids are safe with me :) I also work as a Certified Nursing Assistant so I have the skillset of helping clients with ADLs which include household tasks like cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandmother and am very comfortable with senior care being a CNA. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I am happy to work with families with dogs and cats.

I am a retired teacher, having worked with middle and high schoolers in the area of Language Arts for 38 years. Currently, I am a nanny, a substitute teacher, and a tutor for elementary students. My life has been spent helping children learn and grow, to my great enjoyment. I have an M.Ed. in Reading Education and am a National Board Certified teacher since 2000. One of my proudest career moments was being chosen as WRAL's Teacher of the Week on Dec. 2, 2015. I am mother to four adult sons (two adopted from Russia) and a grandmother to three grandchildren, ages 1, 4, and 8. I have served as a foster parent through Children's Home Society; every child deserves a safe, loving home. I have completed Child and Baby First Aid/ CPR/AED training through the American Red Cross. I am fully vaccinated! My strong points are my patience, creativity, and energy. Yes, I consider myself a young 70 year old! I am a non- smoker, love pets, and have reliable transportation. I enjoy baseball, traveling, reading, hiking, and antiquing. My recent trips have included France, Ireland, Scotland, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Wyoming, Texas, and South Dakota. All have been fun learning experiences! I hope to meet you and your family soon!

Rosangely $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm newer to this field but growing up I've always loved helping others. Whether it was helping take care of my 4 little siblings, or our family dog I've always been in an environment where I was helping to care for someone. I also would love volunteering, for 4 years I was a reading tutor for a company called Read&Feed and I also dabbled in volunteering at different events as well as summer camps. I recently went to school for Esthetics and work part-time as a medical esthetician at a Wellness Clinic in Cary. Currently, I'm just looking for part-time work for the days I'm not at the Clinic. I'm open to working with any age group including senior care as well as pets like cats and dogs :)

"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!"
