I've been caring for children since I was in middle school and am currently the mother of a 10 year old girl. I also spent the past ten years working with preschool, kindergarten, and elementary children in an academic setting. I always put the child's needs first and take a holistic approach to childcare so that the child can grow emotionally, socially, and academically, if needed. I also have a significant amount of experience taking care of various pets, having been a cat and dog owner, as well as birds/reptiles and other small rodents.

$20 per hour for 1 child

I’ve worked with children on and off for about 10 years, including the last 3.5 years providing behavior therapy. I’ve cared for kids in schools, daycares, as a nanny, and in a clinical setting. I’m comfortable with all ages, from babies through high school. I’m patient, dependable, and truly enjoy creating a calm, nurturing space where children feel valued, safe, and cared for, and families can relax knowing their little ones are in good hands.
