Hi! My name is Finn and I'm currently a junior at Duke University. I am offering childcare and household services. I have a passion for childcare and have been supervising toddlers and kids since I was 15 years old in summer camp settings, as well as babysitting roles. My responsibilities have included general supervision, sports, crafts, and basic tutoring. I also can clean, run errands, and cook basic meals. I am happy to work with families with pets!
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.
Hi there! My name is Daniela and I am from Colombia. I am a responsible, caring, and patient caregiver with experience working with kids of different ages. I live doing activities, reading together, and helping with daily routines.
I am grad student, former athlete, and board game fanatic. I am happy to drive or pick up kids from activities. I’m game for pretty much anything and would love the chance to get to know your kid(s)!

"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!"
