Hi, my name is Eslam and a mother of four beautiful kids ages 10, 7, 5, and 2. I am currently a stay-at-home mom. I am very affectionate and nurturing with kids and have extensive experience (over 10 years) working with them. I volunteered at a Sunday school teaching children ages 4-8 Arabic for a year. I also tutor my own kids and help them with their school work. I enjoy taking the kids outside to play when possible, doing arts and crafts, reading, and other indoor activities. I am patient, reliable, and nurturing. Other relevant information include: - bilingual (English & Arabic) - great cook - easy to get along with - fast learner - fully vaccinated - college educated
I am a loving, patient, and responsible nanny with over 10 years of childcare experience. I have cared for children from newborns to school age, including twins from 8 days old until age 5. I also worked in a preschool with children ages 2–6 and spent two years as an Au Pair in the U.S. Families describe me as trustworthy, nurturing, organized, and attentive. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and caring environment where children can grow, learn, and feel loved.
Hello, my name is Rudyana, and I currently offer childcare, senior care, and homemaking services. I love being a nanny and have cared for newborns, infants, toddlers, and children since I was 15. My responsibilities have included school drop-offs, crafts, and more. I also work as a homemaker and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have cared for my own grandparents and am comfortable caring for seniors. I can cook, drive to appointments, or perform other tasks.
Hi! I’m a pediatric nurse with 2 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I’m trained to stay calm, attentive, and safety-focused in any situation, and I genuinely love working with kids both in and outside of the hospital setting! I bring a fun, patient, and nurturing energy to babysitting while also having strong clinical knowledge—so you can feel confident your child is in capable hands. I’m comfortable with routines, meal prep, homework help, bedtime, and caring for children with varying needs. Whether you’re looking for occasional help or a consistent sitter, I aim to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment for your child every time. I’d love to support your family!
Hi! I'm an experienced and caring childcare provider with over 3 years of babysitting experience working with multiple families. I also have experience working as a toddler teacher and teaching children in Taiwan, which has helped me develop strong communication, patience, and classroom management skills. I genuinely enjoy working with children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, explore, and grow. I love keeping children engaged through creative activities, games, reading, and age-appropriate learning experiences. I'm dependable, responsible, patient, and attentive to each child's individual needs. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in someone's care, and I always strive to build that trust with both parents and children. I look forward to meeting your family and providing quality, attentive care!
