Danesha $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Danesha. I currently work with young children in both an elementary school setting with kindergartners and at a daycare. I truly enjoy being a part of children’s early development, helping them learn, grow, and build confidence during such important stages of their lives. Working with kids requires patience, creativity, and compassion, and I take pride in showing up with those qualities every day. Outside of work, I am a dedicated mother to three beautiful children who mean everything to me. Being their mom is my greatest joy and motivation. I strive to create a loving, supportive environment for them while also balancing my responsibilities at work. My experiences as both a parent and an educator allow me to connect deeply with children and families, understanding their needs from multiple perspectives.

Aviyon $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Aviyon. I come from a large family and have a lot of siblings, so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have my own business as an hairdresser in Decatur, Ga that I love. I truly enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, positive, and supportive environment for them. I work with kids of all ages helping them grow, create routines, and educating them. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, and I take pride in being someone families can trust. I also genuinely enjoy helping parents by providing dependable and caring support. I absolutely love to cook. And would be honored to help the parents run any errands, homework, or even cleaning around the home. As far as pets I absolutely love each and every animal no matter how big or small. I personally have a huge dog myself that i rescued off the street as a baby. Walking and keeping pets occupied are my strong suit.

JANAEA $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Mcdonough, GA

Hello! My name is Janaea, but I go by Ms. Jaye. I am a CPR-certified childcare professional with over 20 years of experience working with children from infancy through high school. I am currently a K–12 substitute teacher in Fayette County, Georgia, and previously worked in Los Angeles, California as a preschool and kindergarten teacher, as well as a K–12 substitute. I am known for being warm, nurturing, and dependable, with a natural ability to balance fun, structure, and learning. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and encouraged — and I bring that mindset into every home I work in. Whether it’s imaginative play, homework support, reading time, or calm routines before bed, I meet children where they are while maintaining clear boundaries and gentle discipline. Parents often appreciate my calm presence, strong communication, and educator’s eye for development and behavior. I look forward to supporting your family with attentive, trustworthy care.
