Hi I am Giada. I am a Senior at UNCC majoring in Social Work and minoring in Public Health. I have always loved kids and been able to form bonds with them. I started babysitting outside of my family when I was 13 and when I was 15 got a job at a country club taking care of kids ages 6 months - 10 years old while their parents were engaging in fitness classes and various club sports. Babies are my absolute favorite and I love taking them for walks to get fresh air and enjoy their new world. I enjoy reading and playing with them. I also have 4 years experience as a camp counselor, including overnight summer camp. I am fun, bubbly, and love kids. I have fill in Nanny experience and love engaging with kids and getting them to play/explore.
“Really sweet with our son ”
I have decades of experience with all age children in settings ranging from daycare to church groups to individual care. I also have two grown children of my own.
I’m Sabriyah, a dependable, nurturing, and patient caregiver with years of hands-on experience raising my two children from infancy through their pre-teen years, as well as supporting children and families within my community. I’m experienced in providing safe and attentive supervision, maintaining routines, preparing meals and snacks, supporting homework and age-appropriate activities, and creating a positive environment where children feel comfortable, respected, and encouraged. My healthcare background has also strengthened my focus on safety, cleanliness, observation, and responding to individual needs. I’m trustworthy, organized, compassionate, and adaptable, and I take pride in giving families peace of mind knowing their children are in caring and responsible hands.
Hi - My name is Angelo and I'm offering child care, pet care, senior care, and household services. I love being a father to my 6-year-old son and enjoy the opportunities that I get to spend with him and his classroom of friends. I have been a caretaker for my grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks that are needed around the house.

"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!"
