Hi, I'm a 21 year old college student studying anthropology at Bryn Mawr college.

Takara $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, families! My name is Takara (‘Tuh-care-ruh’), and I'm a caring, responsible, and enthusiastic person who genuinely loves spending time with children and animals. I have several years of hands-on childcare experience, including helping raise my two young nephews from birth and serving as a student aide in a second-grade classroom for two years. I also spent approximately six years volunteering at a children's museum throughout my adolescence, where I had the opportunity to engage with children of different ages and backgrounds. Working with children has always brought me so much joy, and I love creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where they can learn, play, and feel comfortable being themselves. I'm also an animal lover and proud cat parent! In addition to caring for my own cat, I regularly walk and pet-sit my best friend's Yorkie, so I'm comfortable with the responsibilities and attention that come with caring for pets. Whether I'm looking after your little ones or your furry family members, I strive to provide the same love, patience, attentiveness, and care that I would give my own family. I'd love the opportunity to become someone your family can depend on and trust!

Reyna 3 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Kettering, MD

Hi! My name is Reyna. I am a paralegal by profession and I am fluent in both English and Spanish. My experience with childcare began through helping care for my younger siblings and children of friends and family over several years, starting with babies as small as three months. This experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. In addition, I am very active and enjoy hands on activities and being outdoors. I do work full time during the day so my availability is mostly evenings and weekends.

“Reyna was awesome with our two boys ages 4 and 2! They got to practice their Spanish and read books together. Our kids really liked her and we look forward to working with her again.”
