Anna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Anna, a responsible, kind-hearted caregiver with a deep love for children, animals, and creating a nurturing, engaging environment. Originally from Ukraine, I moved to the U.S. in my early twenties and have over a decade of professional experience in finance. Recently, I decided to take a meaningful break to focus on personal growth—and return to my roots in caregiving. From a young age, I helped raise my younger cousins and babysat children of all ages, even while working as a lifeguard during the summers. I believe in creating a safe, loving space where children can feel heard, supported, and encouraged to grow. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, helping with homework, or maintaining routines, I’m attentive to each child’s unique needs. I’m also a lifelong animal lover—I grew up with two Rottweilers who were like family—and currently care for a cat and a chinchilla of my own. Pets always warm up to me, and I’m happy to assist with their care too! I’m available to help with school pickups, light housekeeping, meal prep, and whatever else helps your day run smoothly. I’m calm, patient, trustworthy, and committed to being a reliable support for your family. Thank you for considering me—I’d love to learn more about your family and how I can help! Warmly, Anna
