I have been working in childcare for over twenty five years, very passionate about it. I am patient and understanding of children. Love to explore the out doors doing nature walk and exploring bugs, entertaining and amusing them with stories, puzzles artwork and crafts.

Liziris $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Liziris, and I’m 19 years old. I have about 2–3 years of childcare experience, both personally and professionally. I currently work at a daycare, and I’m also a proud mom to a beautiful 4-month-old baby girl. Caring for children is something I truly love. I enjoy playing, teaching, and helping little ones learn and grow while making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m comfortable with all aspects of childcare — from feeding, bathing, and diaper changes to planning fun and educational activities. I’m also comfortable around pets (dogs and cats, just no aggressive animals) and can help with feeding and light care. In addition, I don’t mind pitching in with simple household tasks like washing dishes, sweeping, or tidying up. I’m comfortable caring for up to 3–4 children at a time, or up to 3 children if pets are included. I take my job seriously and always treat every child as if they were my own — with kindness, patience, and full attention. Any child in my care will be safe, loved, and well looked after! 💕

Makylia $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi !! Im Kay the oldest out of three siblings so taking care of kids has pretty much been in my DNA since day one. I’ve got over 10 years of experience with little ones — especially infants — and now I’m a mom of three myself, so I know what it takes to keep babies happy, safe, and on a good routine. I’m super hands-on, patient, and always bring good energy wherever I go. Kids usually warm up to me fast because I treat them like my own. And when it comes to pets, I’m all for it — my husband runs a pet training and boarding business, so we’re big on animals and know how to handle them with care. Your babies (and fur babies) will be in great hands with I do prefer to provide care from my home so I can offer a comfortable, family-style setting for your child. With three little ones of my own, I’ve built a space that’s safe, engaging, and full of love kind of like a mini daycare! Your child will have plenty of playtime, social interaction, and a caring environment while you’re away.

Amiyah $25 per hour for 1 child

I have a strong background in caregiving with hands-on experience caring for children, seniors, and pets, along with providing household support. Over the past few years, I’ve worked with families to provide dependable, compassionate, and patient care tailored to individual needs. My experience includes preparing meals, helping with daily routines, administering medication, offering companionship, and keeping a safe, clean environment. I’ve cared for children of various ages, from infants to preteens, and I'm known for being nurturing, responsible, and creative—often engaging kids with educational games, crafts, and outdoor play. I’ve also assisted seniors with mobility support, light housekeeping, errands, and emotional companionship, which taught me the importance of empathy and trust. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and calm under pressure—qualities that are essential in any caregiving role. I’m also organized, respectful of people’s privacy and routines, and take pride in creating a warm, supportive atmosphere wherever I work. Whether it’s a child, an elderly loved one, or a beloved pet, I always give 100% of my care, attention, and respect.
