Hi Parents! My name is Chyntia, pronounced Cynthia! I was a nanny for 3 years and a preschool teacher but now I currently work for a lemon law firm…drastic change I know! I have taken care of children from the ages of 3 months to 8years old. I am comfortable with bottle feedings and helping out with nighttime routines, while the parents go out and have a nice date night! I can also help pick up around the house while the little ones are sleeping. I love animals! I have a chihuahua terrier and treat him like my baby. He is definitely spoiled! I have experience with feeding, walking and giving them love ! I am comfortable with all size dogs and cats! Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have ! Hope to hear from you soon.

I love teaching and watch them get excited of their accomplishments for example help with fine-motor skills,tracing,numbers, colors etc. I can help children and elderly; and also fur babies by going for a walk and play with him/her. I am going to start my full time job soon, but feel free for part times, occasional, if you really need me just send me a DM and we can work something out, don’t hesitate I am very open minded and we can definitely fine a way to work and help out with your kiddos, Seniors, and dogs.

Hi, my name is Cynthia! I have been working with children for about proximately the last 5 years. I started by watching my nieces and nephews before taking care of my friends kids. I usually babysit children at ages 1-8 but I am willing to babysit kids a little bit older. While I do not own a car, or know how to drive one, but I do have my own means of transportation to arrive on time. I can even do light housework and do not mind animals being around.
“Cynthia has been amazing prompt and very helpful with my little one and our household. She pays attention always on time and my daughter enjoys time with her. ”
Hello! My name is Nia and I have 15 years babysitting newborns, infants and children.

I also have experience coaching 6 year old basketball I am also comfortable watching and helping the elderly with basic tasks such as cooking, cleaning around the house and also just providing company. I can keep them quite entertained with my stories. I used to work at the local animal shelter and prior to that was a successful dog walker so I am very comfortable with all animals.
