Hello, I'm Shannan, an artistpreneuer, here to help you relieve any scheduling pressure. I was a reading interventionist for 5 years for Marietta School System in Atlanta. I've also remotely tutored elementary age students with Reading Partners LA . If your child needs help reading, I'd love to get them on their reading level. During my busy season, I facilitate youth workshops for churches, schools and youth programs to show them the importance of being a servant leader. I was a caretaker for about 2 years as a companion for Seniors doing private duty care. My heart is soft for elders and children. Kindness is what I lead with so I'm dependable and patient. I am a humble servant leader. Careful. I value respect. Transparency, cleanliness, honesty and integrity are traits of my "ideal" clients' family. While I don't have any children of my own, I love the 13 neices and nephews I've been blessed with. Your loved one will be in good hands with me. I love music and marketing. Occasionally, I produce poetry events and I like watching documentaries on PBS. Im a life learner. I love the Lord and I work for him. Hoping to hear from you soon! Shannan

Hi, my name is Deborah Cohen and I would be happy to help out childcare and pet care. I have over 8 years experience taking care of children. I started off volunteering in my teens at my local church, taking care of multiple children of all ages. I eventually took care of a sweet little girl until she was 5 years old. I currently help out a family taking care of two boys. I enjoy being outside with kids, reading with them and playing games. I have experience with homework help, meal planning, baking, and doing crafts. I enjoy interacting with kids and I’m very patient. I also have experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with animals and then was a pet sitter for my sister. I’ve done pet sitting for several years and have experience with dog walking, distributing medication, and feeding. I’m also open to house sitting. I look forward to helping out in any way

Safety is ALWAYS my first priority. My passion lies in providing dependable support to families and your loved ones. I've had the privilege of working with infants to seniors over the past years. I hold a college degree and maintain a current CPR/First Aid certification. Additionally, I am resourceful, creative and calm under pressure, with the ability to think on my feet when challenges arise. A good sense of humor is an approach I use to help navigate various situations with ease. I’m more than happy to help with light housekeeping, driving children to and from school, activities, etc. (I have a safe SUV that holds 2 car seats easily). I'm also very flexible with yours/my schedule. I work hard and always have a smile on my face 😊

Hi! I’m Sophia 🌿 I have twenty years of experience working with children in a variety of settings—supporting kids on the autism spectrum (ages 2–18), working as a summer camp counselor teaching kayaking, and spending summers working at a beach camp in Santa Monica with kids ages 3–13. As well as an away camp working with kids of all ages for a summer when I was 18. I’ve also assisted in a Montessori classroom for ages 3–6 and have two sweet nephews (Ray Ray, 12, and Theo, 8) whom I adore and have helped care for regularly. I have been babysitting for different families since I was 12 years old. I studied psychology at the University of Colorado Boulder, where I developed a deep love for the outdoors. Whether I’m hiking, biking, or surfing, being in nature is a big part of my life. I love working with children because it brings out my playful and nurturing side. I’m known for being calm, kind, and grounded, and I bring a lot of presence and care into the spaces I hold with kids. Friends and colleagues often describe me as genuine, patient, and full of heart. Fun facts about me: I love swing dancing, singing circles, and playing the ukulele. I’m also a certified Reiki Master and integrative health coach and run a coaching business focused on healing and personal growth. I bring emotional attunement, nervous system regulation and loving presence into my childcare. I’m currently looking for a summer position and am available until mid-September. Looking forward to connecting with you and your family!
