I am a warm, dedicated, and highly experienced caregiver, proud to be a 57-year-old Haitian American. My cultural background has instilled in me a deep commitment to family and respect for elders, which informs my compassionate approach to care. I am genuinely hardworking and reliable, viewing my role as both a professional duty and a personal privilege. I hold a certified CNA license, along with additional certifications, ensuring I can provide skilled medical support, medication management, and specialized care. Beyond the clinical skills, I offer patient and attentive companionship, reliable assistance with ADLs, and a commitment to maintaining a positive, comfortable environment for your loved one.
Caring for others is a calling. I have had decades of experience as a teacher, pet caregiver, and caregiver for Seniors. I have an undergraduate degree from Cornell University, a Masters in Education from the University of Maryland and a Masters in English from FAU. I am a certified Florida English and reading teacher as well. I have been an infant caregiver, a preschool teacher, a teacher in schools, and an educational consultant for students ages 3 to 63! As a teacher, dog walker/sitter, babysitter, and caregiver, I love helping children, pets, and people in general! I am organized, responsible, and flexible and I look forward to hearing from you and to helping you!
Hello my name is Lucien I was born in Haiti, I am proud father of two children and grandfather of three kids, a Christian, and a professional cook. I come from a very clean background, I am a very respectable and honest person and will get the job done.
Hey!!! I am Leah, a 23-year-old social work/early childhood education student. I am a lead VPK teacher at a daycare facility in Palm Beach County. I provide babysitting, tutoring, and mentoring services for all ages. I have been tutoring and working with children for about 10 years, started with my little sister being born. I’m all about child safety and development. I have completed my 40 DCF hours and have obtained my Children’s Development Associate (CDA). I have experience with newborns to high school, from childcare to tutoring. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified. I like bring activities like painting, building, reading, coloring, or even crocheting, dependent on the age and interests. I used to work at Disney, so I’m just a big ball of energy!! CANCELLATIONS: If you need to cancel, no problem! Just out of common curiosity, I ask for 50% of the time booked for cancellations within the 24-hour window. If the cancellation occurs on the day of the booking, I request 75% of the time booked. MINIMUM BOOKING: I have a 4-hour minimum for all shifts. For bookings under 4 hours, I charge a flat rate (travel included). For anything 4 hours or more, it is my standard hourly rates.
I’m a nurturing and dependable caregiver with experience caring for children and seniors. As the oldest of four, I naturally stepped into a caregiving role from a young age, supporting my own family and babysitting for family friends and neighbors. I’m patient, attentive, and optimistic, and I take pride in creating a safe, calm, and supportive environment for those in my care. I’m currently available for occasional and last-minute care on Sundays–Wednesdays, depending on the week. I’m especially happy to help with short notice or one-time bookings! While I don’t transport children in my own vehicle, I’m comfortable staying on-site or using a family vehicle if needed.
