Daelynn $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Daelynn I am 18 years old, and I am looking for part time opportunities for any needs! In my current job I care for two sweet children tues-thurs with very occasional mon/fri. In this job I make meals, do school pickups, laundry, housecleaning, and other needs the family asks of that week. With this availability It has been hard to find a second job, but I knew I wanted to do something of the same sort. Along with this job I have also had experience in lifeguarding/swim instructing children aged 6 mo- 8 yr. In this job I underwent cpr as well as first aid training. Before working with children, in highschool I worked in retail at ulta, as well as hosting at texas roadhouse. I have a 1 1/2 year old energetic mixed breed german shepard named Sage. Taking care/ providing all needs for an animal at 18 has shown me a lot of responsibility as well as a lot more knowledge in caring for, and understanding each animal. I also was raised by my granparents since I was 7 years old. With that I have always had a want to provide comfort to others like them, so I enjoy being company to almost anyone animals, elderly, and children all included!

Booked by 1 family in Gratis, OH

Hello! My name is Vaile. I am a sophomore at Miami University studying Primary Education with Minors in Finance and Event Planning. I hope to become a 2nd grade teacher when I graduate. I am on the Water Polo team, and am also in a Sorority.  When I am not involved with these extracurriculars, I enjoy scrapbooking and making crafts.   Prior to college, I played soccer and was on a swim team. I provided swim lessons for 2-15 year-olds, and also served as a lifeguard. I am in the process of re-certifying in CPR and First Aid.   I have a lot of fun ideas for craft projects as well as other at-home activities, depending on your children’s interests. I would also love to help your little ones learn how to swim! My junior and senior year of high school I had an internship with my local elementary where I worked with many diverse learners. I have my teaching assistant certification (ParaPro) from this program. I have also spent many years volunteering at my church with toddlers. I am looking forward to continuing to expand my experience with children of all ages as this is my passion. Any additional time I spend with children now will help me become a better teacher and mother one day.

Vaile was excellent! She connected with us days prior to see what our son liked and to get to know us. She arrived on time and was amazing with our son. He had a great time and spoke highly of Vaile the next day

"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!"
