Asia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Asia and currently I work as a lab tech. Additionally, I offer child, pet, and house care services. I have been babysitting since high school, and I worked as a nanny for on two separate occasions. Both for a couple months at a time. I also worked at summer kids camps for many years. I am available to help with house work too. I have worked for resorts cleaning cabins. I have experience caring for animals of many ages and sizes. The dogs I’ve taken care of range in size from very small to over 100lbs, both adult and puppies. The cats I’ve cared for have been both calm and full of energy, and it’s always a win when the cats decide we can be friends!

Russell $20 per hour for 1 child

I bring over nine years of hands-on hospital experience caring for patients of all ages and a wide range of diagnoses. My background includes work in assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities, and acute care settings. I’m comfortable providing everything from basic activities of daily living (ADLs) to high-acuity support alongside ICU-level care. In addition to my hospital experience, I’ve independently contracted through caregiver platforms to support families in their homes. I take pride in providing reliable, compassionate care tailored to each individual’s needs. I’m happy to provide excellent references upon request — I’d love for you to hear directly from the families and teams I’ve worked with.

Lauren $19 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Lauren, and I am a mom to a 2.5-year-old. I am CPR and first aid certified. In addition to this, I've had many different experiences caring for children, ranging from being a nanny to teaching and working at youth organizations and schools. Experience: --I was a nanny for a 13- and 14-year-old the summer after college. --I worked at a home for children in Mexico for three years, where I cared for the children and helped with various education projects. --I taught reading and writing at an elementary school and was a Community School Director at a junior high. --I have a Master’s Degree in International Development and Education and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy. Beyond childcare, I also have experience caring for animals. At home, I take care of our two dogs as well as geese, ducks, and chickens. These responsibilities have taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and maintaining a routine—qualities that carry over into caregiving for children. I love caring for children and animals alike and have made it my life’s work to nurture, teach, and support others!

Brandi $25 per hour for 1 child

I have had the privilege of working as a dedicated nanny, providing exceptional care and support to children from various backgrounds. It has been incredibly rewarding to witness their growth and development, and I take pride in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for them. For three years, I had the wonderful opportunity to work as a toddler teacher at La Petite. This experience allowed me to contribute to the early education of young children and shape their journey in discovering the world around them. I gained valuable insights into child development, honed my classroom management skills, and developed engaging activities that helped foster their curiosity and imagination. During my two years as a tutor, I had the pleasure of assisting students in their academic journeys. By offering personalized instruction and guidance, I was able to help them overcome challenges and reach their full potential. Adapting my teaching methods to cater to their individual learning styles was crucial in ensuring their success, and witnessing their progress was incredibly fulfilling. As a substitute teacher, I had the opportunity to step into various classrooms and adapt quickly to new environments. This role allowed me to gain versatility and resilience, managing different classroom dynamics and delivering lessons across various subjects. It was a dynamic and fast-paced experience that further sharpened my skills as an educator. Most recently, I spent two years as a kindergarten teacher, a role that brought me immense joy and fulfillment. Guiding young children through their first experiences in formal education was a privilege. I designed engaging lesson plans, fostered a positive and inclusive learning environment, and helped my students develop academically, socially, and emotionally. Witnessing their growth and enthusiasm for learning was truly gratifying. Collectively, my seven years as a nanny, three years as a toddler teacher at La Petite, two years as a tutor, substitute teacher, and kindergarten teacher have shaped me into a passionate and versatile educator. My commitment to the well-being and development of children, along with my ability to create engaging and enriching experiences, make me confident in my skills and excited for future opportunities in the field.
