"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."

Booked by 13 families in Atlanta, GA
Hi! My name is Keila! I am offering part-time care for children as well as tutoring services. I am Educated, Fun, and Totally Love Children! This has been my field of expertise for over 10 years! It's who I am! Children are my vibe! They keep me youthful! I have been working with children in private and public, and church settings my entire life! I have experience with children of all ages including infants.
“We had such a great experience Keila! She was wonderful with both our 2.5-year-old and our 6-month-old, and they both really enjoyed spending time with her. She came prepared with fun, age-appropriate activities to keep them engaged, which we really appreciated. She also went above and beyond by gifting our 2.5-year-old a book and workbook, which was such a thoughtful gesture. We especially appreciated that she regularly sent us updates and pictures throughout the day. It gave us peace of mind and helped us feel comfortable knowing how the kids were doing while we were away. She was caring, thoughtful, proactive, and clearly enjoys working with children. We would definitely recommend her to other families!”

Hello! Thank you for viewing my profile. I'm Kayla Spain, 25 years old. I have recently graduated from Alabama State University, majoring in Biology Pre-health. I have been caring for children since I became an older sister to my younger brother. I became a babysitter on a regular basis and also was there for my younger cousins as well. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers. I've worked for a daycare at the age of 14- 18 where I prepared meals, developed lesson plans, and also maintained a safe and clean environment. I honestly love working with young kids and I make sure it's my mission to make sure they are keeping a smile on their face.
“I've worked with Kayla a few times now, and she has been wonderful each time. She is very reliable and so patient with my little guy. Always punctual and quick to respond, which I really appreciate. I'd gladly work with her again!”

My name is Elizabeth (Liz) Hemann and I recently graduated from Emory University School of Law. I have been working with kids for about 14 years now. I have had the most experience with children between 2 and 8 years old, but I love working with kids of all ages. If the weather is nice, I like to take the kids outside (walks, park, etc.). If not, art projects and reading books are my go-to. I am currently living in Cleveland, OH.
