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.

Hazel $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hazel, and I’ve always enjoyed working with kids and have hands-on experience from volunteering as a teacher’s aide at my church, where I helped care for and supervise kids ages 12 and under, including babies and toddlers. I’m currently working toward a degree in child psychology, which has given me a deeper understanding of child development and behavior. Along with childcare, I also have experience caring for dogs, so I’m comfortable in homes with pets and happy to help with pet care if needed. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, calm, and fun environment for kids. Along with a more relaxing and stress free environment for the parents.

“Mayra was our daughter's nanny for 1 year (6-18 months of age) and we had a wonderful experience. We met Mayra during the thick of the pandemic and we could not have had a better partner. Our daughter, my wife and i love Mayra and it was with a very heavy heart that we parted ways when we determined that our daughter needed to go to daycare/school. Mayra was always extremely careful and loving with our daughter and we always felt she was in great hands. She formed a very especial bond with our daughter and always stimulated her physically and intellectually. Our daughter easily completed all of the age-appropriate transitions with Mayra's help. They read, played, went to the park, and did arts and crafts. Mayra also cooked frequently for our daughter and fed her healthy and balanced meals. Our daughter was always happy to see Mayra. She has a wonderfully calm demeanor that helped our daughter be calm most of the times. When our daughter slept Mayra helped us with our baby's laundry and folding clothes. We have met other nannies and Mayra definitely stands out. From a personality perspective, Mayra is very discreet, easy going and a pleasure to be around. We highly recommend her.”
