Hi my name is Noreen , I am a mother of 3 adult children and grandmother to two beautiful boys ( age 5 and 2 years old ) . I am Irish and legal to work in the US . Have lots of experience of caring for children throughout the years . Willing to do occasional babysitting . I drive my own car, car seat installed with a clean license so can do drop off and pick up when needed . I’m pretty familiar with parks , aquarium , zoo and all those fun places for kids . I am fully Covid/ flu vaccinated . Look forward to hearing from you ,
“Noreen helped us with my 2 year old. She was so great taking her to the park and sending me pictures. She was so so sweet with my daughter. She was also able to bring her grandson along one day and they made great friends. Noreen is a Godsend. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”

Mom of a 16‑year‑old with 15 years of nanny experience. I’m calm, dependable, and great with kids and pets of all ages. I also have 20 years of household management and personal assistant experience.
Rafaella $20 per hour for 1 child
I am an experienced caregiver with a strong background in providing attentive and reliable care for children, pets, and households. From 2021 to 2023, I worked as a part-time nanny for three children, where I developed skills in organizing daily routines, preparing meals, assisting with homework, and engaging children in educational and recreational activities. In addition to childcare, I have experience caring for pets, ensuring their well-being through feeding, exercise, and companionship. I am also skilled in household management, including light cleaning, organizing, and keeping a safe and welcoming environment. My reliability, and nurturing approach make me a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for families.
