Simone $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi families! My name is Simone and I’m currently 22 years old. I’ve worked with kids from newborns up to school age! I have 4 years old experience working with young children and I have such a passion and love for them! I enjoy playing with them, as well as, watching them grow up and experience new things on their own. It such a beautiful moment to watch a child walk for the first time, say their first word, or even learn how to ride a bike for the first time! I can’t wait to get to know your beautiful families. :)
