Jada $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jada, and I am 28 years old. I have many years of experience caring for children and a genuine passion for helping families. Before becoming a stay-at-home mom, I worked full-time in a preschool/daycare setting for 3 years, where I cared for children ranging from newborns to toddlers. I am currently a stay-at-home mom to my two sons, ages 6 years old and 14 months old. My days are filled with providing a safe, nurturing, and structured environment for them, including caring for my youngest at home and taking my oldest to and from school. Being a mother has strengthened my patience, understanding, and ability to meet the unique needs of children at different developmental stages. I would love the opportunity to bring that same level of care, love, and reliability to your family. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to help with your children, and I would be honored to provide support while ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

Pervin $14 per hour for 1 child

I was caregiver to Roberta Newton for two plus years.Renal failure and Cancer diagnosis. I am Patient and Understanding as well as empathetic. I have children of my own one of whom presently reside with me.. My mother died of Cancer also and not having the money me and my sister had to care for her until her passing. That was my first experience...three months until she left this place. Have had many dogs in my lifetime and know their habits and behaviors pretty well. Roberta required full live in care services so I got very knowledgeable of proper care and needs to be aware of as well as how to deescalate and or give space as needed... making sure all appointments were kept and medication picked up and administered accordingly. Hygiene upkeep, freshly made beds, washing linens regularly etc.

"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!"
