Hi! My name is Lorrayne, and I’m 28 years old. I’ve been working in childcare since 2014 and have extensive experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. For the past 6 years, I worked with the same family, caring for their three children. I started when their youngest was just 1 month old, so I’m very comfortable with infant care and all the routines that come with it, including feeding, bottles, diaper changes, naps, soothing, and keeping little ones engaged and happy. A little about me: • CPR certified • 🗣️ Fluent in English and Portuguese • 🚗 Strong driver with a clean driving record • 🐕 Pet friendly • 💉 Fully vaccinated, including the booster I’m responsible, reliable, patient, and nurturing, and I genuinely love what I do. Caring for children is more than just a job to me — it’s something I do with a lot of love, patience, and dedication. ❤️ I don’t have many bookings on the app because I used it for a while, took a break, and recently started using it again. I do have some great reviews from families I’ve worked with, and I’d be happy to share more about my experience! I’d love to learn more about your family and the position. Thank you for considering me! 😊

Hi, I'm Jaylin, a second-year student at Tuskegee University with a caring and positive personality. I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping others, especially kids. Working with children comes naturally to me because I'm patient, understanding, and easy to connect with. Kids always know how to make me smile, and I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where they can feel comfortable and happy.l grew up helping watch and care for kids, which helped me become responsible and comfortable working with children of different ages. In high school, I also worked with kids in classrooms from Kindergarten through 5th grade, helping with activities, learning, and classroom support. Those experiences helped me build patience, communication skills, and a strong understanding of how to connect with children in a positive way.l have experience helping with homework, meals, activities, and keeping children entertained while making sure they stay safe and cared for. I'm dependable, responsible, and always willing to learn new things. I enjoy building strong connections with both kids and parents while making families feel supported and comfortable. I'm excited to continue gaining experience while doing something I truly enjoy.
