Roseanne $33 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Roseanne but you can call me Rose. As a mother of grown children both out of the house, I truly miss the laughter, curiosity, and wonder along with memories that little ones bring into a home. Caring for babies and toddlers feels natural and meaningful to me — it’s a season of life I cherish deeply. I bring a warm, calm, attentive presence into the homes I work in. Safety, integrity, and emotional steadiness are very important to me. I believe children thrive in peaceful, predictable routines, and I’m happy to help create that — whether that means engaging play, reading time, gentle redirection, bedtime routines or simply being a steady presence during transitions. I’m also happy to support with light household tasks, pet care, and helping your home feel a little more manageable while you’re away. When I’m not caring for families, I enjoy spending time in nature, visiting museums, and being with friends and loved ones. I value balance, warmth, and meaningful connection — and I bring that same energy into the families I serve.
