Hi my name is Leticia. I have been caring for kids for over 30 years as well as house cleaning for the same time. I also pet sit when I can but at their house.
Hi! My name is Finn and I'm currently a junior at Duke University. I am offering childcare and household services. I have a passion for childcare and have been supervising toddlers and kids since I was 15 years old in summer camp settings, as well as babysitting roles. My responsibilities have included general supervision, sports, crafts, and basic tutoring. I also can clean, run errands, and cook basic meals. I am happy to work with families with pets!
I have over 15 years paid experience as a babysitter/nanny, a Masters in International Development, au pair experience in Ireland (3 kids under 6 on a dairy farm!), and I taught 2nd grade in Shanghai for two years. I also have ample experience caring for families with multiples, children with special needs, and night nurse experience with infants. When babysitting I enjoy reading, playing outside, taking walks, making crafts, and getting creative with pretend play. I’m also comfortable driving, swimming, and helping with homework if needed.
My name is Wendy, and I bring over 25 years of experience as a licensed, 4‑star family childcare provider in Durham. I’ve cared for children from 3 weeks to 12 years old and have extensive training in early childhood development, infant/toddler care, and child care administration. I’m reliable, patient, and safety‑focused, and I work hard to create a warm, structured, and engaging environment for every child. Families describe me as nurturing, dependable, and easy to communicate with. I truly love supporting children’s growth and helping parents feel confident and supported.
My name is Caroline - I am a first-year MPH student at UNC Chapel Hill. I am offering child care, housesitting, and petsitting. I have 5-8 years of experience with nannying and child care. My responsibilities have included driving to and from school/after-school activities, homework help, cooking/meal prep and more!
“Caroline is an absolute family favorite! She is kind and engaged with our two active boys, and caring for our golden retriever too. I am always at ease when she is with them. ”
