Hazel $17 per hour for 1 child
I am a senior in high school with a strong passion for working with children. I have taken a Child Development class for two years, where I have learned a lot about child growth and care. Through this class and other experiences, I have worked with children as young as three years old up to almost five-year-olds. I truly enjoy engaging with kids. I love playing with them, talking to them, and creating fun. In addition, I am actively involved at my church every Sunday, where I work with children aged 5 to 10. I help supervise activities, play with them, and encourage positive interaction. I also have experience caring for animals. I have three dogs that I have cared for over the past four years, and I also offer dog-walking services. This experience has taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness qualities I bring to all childcare responsibilities. Overall, my experience with children and animals has given me the skills to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for any child.

Aduneya $20 per hour for 1 child
I have worked at an elementary school taking care of 25 kids. Being creative and finding activities for kids to do is very important. Painting, drawing, any games that they like. It’s also very important to lead Children to make sure rules are followed so they are safe at all times. Through getting to know them and being a good listener, over time they will feel more comfortable.

Hi future families! I am a caring, extremely organized, patient, and responsible person who loves being around children and animals. I have experience babysitting my nephew, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to keep little ones happy and entertained. I’m nurturing, dependable, and easygoing. I also have a dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable around pets! I’d love to make your family feel comfortable knowing your little ones are in safe, caring hands. 😊
