I have 5 years of experience working with children in a professional childcare setting. I also have 4 years of experience petsitting dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I grew up with pets and currently have a dog so I am very comfortable working with animals. I enjoy providing care to families, whether that is taking care of children or simply running errands and cleaning around the home. I am bilingual in English and Russian.

Lena $30 per hour for 1 child

Caring for children has been my passion for over 10 years. I started babysitting at 13, volunteered with children at church throughout high school, and have built my career around professional childcare ever since. From 2[removed], I worked as a live-in au pair in the United States, caring for children full-time. After returning to Germany, I continued working as a full-time nanny for three children while attending university. I later returned to the U.S. as a live-in nanny and now work as a professional nanny. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and with families of many different sizes. Beyond childcare, I've managed daily routines, prepared meals, driven children to activities, helped with homework, taught early reading skills, supported potty training, organized household tasks, and served as a household manager and family assistant. My childcare philosophy is built on patience, consistency, and respect. I believe children deserve to be listened to and spoken to with kindness. I set clear expectations while taking the time to explain things in a way they can understand, helping them build confidence, independence, and strong communication skills. Families describe me as dependable, calm, organized, and genuinely invested in helping their children thrive. Whether you need ongoing care or dependable last-minute backup care, I'll provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for your children.

Mary $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Mary, and I'm looking for a part-time nanny position. I spent 17 years running my own preschool and childcare program, caring for children from newborns through kindergarten. With a business degree and extensive coursework in early childhood education, I bring both professional experience and a true passion for nurturing young minds. I've also had the joy of raising three daughters of my own, all now college graduates, giving me a personal understanding of children's needs. I'm patient, dependable, and love spending time with kids, whether it's reading, playing, helping them learn, or simply making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

"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!"
