$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Natalie, and I am offering childcare services part-time! I have over 40 years of experience. I love working with infants & young ones. I had this family that I worked for 30 years that I started when their first child was 2mos. old & had their 2nd after 2yrs. Kids grew up with me & believe it or not, I still worked for them part time coz’ they don’t want to let me go. I speak Tagalog as well as English, and I hope to be a stress reliever when it comes to leaving your child at home!
