"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Hannah $30 per hour for 1 child
Hi there! I'm Hannah and I've worked with kids on and off for the past 10 years. I was a nanny to a household of twins from the ages of 4 to when they were 10. I've cared for infants, toddlers, and elementary age children. I also have experience running multi-week summer theatre and art classes for ages 5-12. I have housekeeping and pet sitting experience with a wide variety of pets (for example: a five-cat household, with puppies, and senior dogs!) Additionally, I've volunteered extensively for multiple years with an afterschool program for teens with special needs. I'm flexible, personable, and love kids. I can always roll with the punches that life brings with little ones. I'm happy to be there for your family whenever you need! I have my own transportation. I can't wait to get started!
