Hi! My name is Stephani. I’m a bilingual, dependable, and patient caregiver with experience supporting school-aged children. I’m attentive, calm, and genuinely enjoy creating a fun, warm, and safe environment. Families appreciate that I show up prepared, stay engaged, and adapt easily to each child’s personality and routine. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, simple meals, bedtime routines, and light household tasks. I speak fluent Spanish and have experience helping children with learning a second language. My goal is always to make parents feel at ease and kids feel supported, understood, and excited to spend time together.
Hi, I’m Virginia, and I work from home as an HR project manager with my own beagle-Bassett hound as a steady coworker. He’s almost 6 years old (DOB 09/2020) and playful, chill, spunky. My weekly schedule is fairly predictable and flexible so I’m looking forward to being able to help care for your dog, too!
“Virginia is the best! She is so caring and kind with our Cavapoo, Mochi, and gives us complete peace of mind knowing our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We’re so grateful for her!”
Lots of experience with dogs and cats (walking, feeding, administering medicine, playing, cleaning litter boxes, etc.). I love animals and am generally very flexible.
As a high school teacher, lacrosse coach, loving Aunt, and dog owner, I bring years of experience working closely with children and teens in both educational and athletic settings. I'm passionate about creating a safe and supportive environment for kids of all ages. My background has helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and a deep understanding of child development and behavior. I have my B.S. in Biobehavioral health from Penn State University. I currently teach Health and Nutrition at St John’s College High school, and I’ve also worked at several different universities including Boston University and Georgetown University. According to feedback I’ve received from supervisors, I create a safe and welcoming environment and successfully keep children engaged and interested in class. I’ve coached all levels of lacrosse including youth, high school, and college. I also have experience being a live-in caregiver for my grandmother. I’m comfortable with light household tasks and pet care. Families can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and caring.
Hi! I’m Katherine, I’ve worked as a YMCA camp counselor for several years with kids ages 5–13, mostly 7–10-year-olds. I love keeping kids active, creative, and having fun while making sure they’re safe and cared for. I also currently work as a TA for accounting at AU, (I'm a current senior studying Finance and Econ), and am happy to help with HW or academic needs. I also love dogs (my family has corgis and dachshunds) and am used to feeding, and walking dogs. I’m responsible, patient, and love working with families who value a positive, energetic environment!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
