"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."

Hana $25 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Hana. I have over 10 years of childcare experience, including my role as a teacher lead at a licensed childcare center where I worked with children ranging from 6 weeks to 4–5 years old. I also babysat and nannied throughout high school and college, giving me experience with a wide variety of ages and family needs. I also became a mom in October to a beautiful baby girl, which has deepened my passion for childcare even more. I’m currently looking for weekend positions, part-time work, or occasional childcare opportunities. I’m reliable, nurturing, and experienced, and I love creating a safe and engaging environment for children. Please let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to hearing from you!

Mostly every job I’ve had, has been working with kids!! I’ve been a nanny, a preschool teacher for 8 years, and for the past 2, at a high school. I’m a mother of a 16 year old daughter, and an auntie to 3 that I see all the time. They are ages 3, 6, and 7. I always strive to be patient, kind, and understanding. I always want to be thought of as a safe space. I treat the kids I work with like I would want my own to be treated. I am easy going and laid back, reliable, and trustworthy. Also love pets!!
