Rebecca $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is becca and I am a 23 year incoming first year medical student. I have been babysitting since I was 10, starting with my youngest brother being born, and continued watching toddlers and school aged children throughout high school and college over weekends and summers. I love engaging in games and crafts, and can help out with meals and clean up. I myself have a 2 year old French bulldog, giving me much experience and care in high maintenance dogs. Before starting medical school, I have had jobs as a Certified Nurse Assistant on a cardiology and observation floor, college biology and chemistry tutor, clinical volunteer for senior patients, and participated in clinical research with a focus on pregnancy. Currently I am a medical assistant at a dermatology clinic.
Panmela $25 per hour for 1 child
I'm a loving, joyful, and energetic person with a strong drive and a true passion for childcare. I have experience with children of all ages, including three experiences caring for baby twins and one experience with older twins. I'm responsible, patient, and always attentive to the unique needs of each child. Whether it's playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I bring positivity and dedication to every moment. I also have a reliable car, which allows me to manage school runs, extracurricular activities, and family errands efficiently. I'm currently majoring in Nursing, which has strengthened my knowledge of child development, health, safety, and patient care. I'm fully committed to providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your children.
