My name is Blanca, I am a dedicated caregiver for over 20 years working with children of all ages. As a mother of five wonderful children who are now grown and thriving in their own lives, I have gained an immense understanding of child development, patience, and the ability to connect with children. Raising my children taught me the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment, and I have carried those values into my personal caregiving career. I hold a Child Development Associate (CDA) certification, which allows me to build a strong foundation in child care practices in early childhood education. This certification, combined with my hands-on experience, has given me the tools to meet the needs of children across various developmental stages. From infants to teenagers, I have worked with children of all ages, helping them grow, learn and thrive in supportive and structured environments. In addition to my work with children, I am also experienced in providing household services. I understand how important it is to maintain an organized and clean environment for children to thrive. Whether it’s preparing healthy meals, managing schedules, or ensuring the home remains tidy, I am committed to supporting families in every way possible. My bilingual skills in English and Spanish have also been a significant asset, allowing me to communicate effectively with families from diverse backgrounds and even help children develop their bilingual abilities. Beyond my professional experience, I believe my personality traits make me an exceptional caregiver. I am patient, empathetic, and highly observant, which allows me to respond to the unique needs of each child. I am also highly dependable and proactive, always anticipating the needs of the family and ensuring tasks are completed efficiently. My warm and friendly demeanor helps children feel comfortable and safe, while my structured approach provides the guidance they need to thrive. If you’d like to learn more about how I can support your family, I would be happy to discuss further!
Hi! I’m Journi — your future favorite sitter! I started working at Today’s Kids of Suwanee when I was 18 and fresh out of high school, and I instantly fell in love with all the babies and tots I got to care for. I’ve worked in the baby room (6 months–1 year), crawlers (1 year), tots (1½–3), and with kiddos all the way up to 10 years old, so I’m comfortable jumping in wherever I’m needed. I may only be 20, but I’m super mature, responsible, and safety-minded. I’m a pharmacy technician during the day and a sitter by night — so your little ones are always in careful, attentive hands. Parents tell me I’m patient, playful, and easy to trust. And if you’ve got pets? Even better! I grew up with dogs and have my own little fur baby, Rico, so I’m great with animals too. I can’t wait to meet your family and help make your days a little easier. Feel free to message me anytime!
Hello my hardworking sweet moms/parents! 💖 Hi! My name is Hazel! I am currently looking for any moms/parents who are interested in needing help watching over their children! I am in the area of snellville, or any nearby! I am open to a (preferably) part time availability if needed, if any other options we can work with something. Babies, and toddlers are always getting along with me and I would love to help 💗 I grew up taking care of my newborn cousins and sibilings and till this day I still have an almost 2yr old sister that I take care of as well. I always enjoy being around them, I love kids and I can’t wait to have one for my own. I’m very open to keeping them distracted on educational activities, their eating schedules, and their sleep time schedule even if that includes naps throughout the day. I am a very flexible person and very truthworthy when it comes to anything and everything including those children who are brought to this world. 💗 Feel free to contact me if interested!

Hi! My name is Nicole Rielly and I am currently a student at UNG and study Biology.
