Berenice $25 per hour for 1 child
I am a nurturing, patient, and reliable caregiver with over five years of experience working with children from infancy through school age. I began babysitting in high school and quickly discovered how fulfilling it is to support families and create a warm, positive environment for kids. I truly enjoy being part of their everyday growth whether it’s helping them learn something new, guiding them through emotions, or simply making their day brighter through engaging play. As a new mother myself, I have hands-on experience with infant care, including feeding, soothing, diapering, and maintaining healthy routines. Over the years, I have developed strong communication skills, a calm and gentle approach, and the ability to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. I am committed to providing safe, attentive, and loving care while supporting parents in any way I can, including light household tasks and maintaining consistent routines.
