Hello families! My name is María, I am 28 years old, and I am originally from Spain. I came to the United States in 2021 to work as an au pair, taking care of a 1.5-year-old child. Since then, I have continued working in childcare and have gained more than 3 years of experience caring for toddlers between 1 and 3 years old. I have a degree in Pedagogy and I specialize in Autism Spectrum Disorder. I have experience working with children with special needs, especially children on the autism spectrum. I have also completed the 40-hour RBT (Registered Behavior Technician) training course and I am currently continuing with the certification process. I am a very motivated, energetic, and caring person. I love educating, teaching, and supporting little ones through their learning and developmental process. I am patient, responsible, and confident handling challenging situations, difficult behaviors, and tantrums using a calm and positive approach. I also have experience with cooking and healthy meal preparation. During my work as a Coach and DSP (Direct Support Professional), I received training related to nutrition and meal planning, which helped me develop strong skills in preparing healthy and balanced meals. At the moment, I am looking for occasional/day-by-day nanny jobs to help families who need extra support with childcare. I can also assist with light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, and keeping the home organized. If your family needs a caring, experienced, and reliable person to look after your little ones, or if you know someone who does, please feel free to send me a private message. I would love to help! Thank you!
I’m a warm, dependable caregiver with hands-on babysitting experience and a genuine love for working with children. I bring a fun, creative energy to every sit — whether that’s crafting, imaginative play, or just making sure the kids are laughing and well looked after. Beyond childcare, I’m comfortable handling light household tasks to keep things running smoothly while parents are away, and I’m great with pets too. I take my responsibilities seriously — punctuality, communication, and leaving things better than I found them are things I pride myself on. Families can count on me to be fully present, engaged, and trustworthy. Your kids are in great hands.
Hey! I’m a 20 year old creative writing student at GSU. I have a younger sister (8 years younger) who taught me a lot about childcare, fun, and selflessness. I’ve babysat for my neighbors in the past and would like to also tutor. I’m vaccinated with Pfizer! In addition to babysitting and tutoring, I can house sit, help out with chores, cook, etc. Just ask me. I love reading, drawing, painting, anything creative. I also speak French fluently and can definitely help with homework. I’m a bit of a nerd at heart. I don’t currently have a car, though I do have a license.
