Hi! My name is Maria P. I’m 24 years old and a certified flight attendant with CPR and First Aid training. I have experience caring for children of all ages; from infants to teenagers. I’ve also worked as a soccer coach and participated in summer camps, supporting kids in a fun, safe, and active environment. I’m responsible, energetic, and very proactive. I love keeping kids engaged through games, sports, and creative activities. I’m also very organized and always willing to help families with whatever they need to make their day run smoothly.

$18 per hour for 1 child

I am currently a freshman at Elmhurst University in Illinois, and play for the volleyball team. I am studying marketing. I grew up in Las Vegas and attend Bishop Gorman High School. I come to Vegas during school breaks and work there as well as in Elmhurst. My older sister has two kids that I have been helping with since I was 11. They are now the ages of 7 and 1. I drive now so I take them to their extracurricular activities and entertain them with fun activities including crocheting, knitting, painting, coloring, playing outside, as well as cooking. I am super comfortable helping with running errands and cleaning around the house. I have 2 cats and 3 dogs so working with animals is no problem! I love playing with animals as well as taking them out for walks!

Hello! My name is Amber, and I am currently a college student working on her pre-nursing requirements and finishing an environmental science degree while maintaining a 3.48 GPA. I mention this only to say, yes. I can help with that pesky homework question. I have enjoyed providing a safe and friendly environment for toddlers to adults since middle school. I enjoy doing arts and crafts as well as losing at games and playing catch. I can provide light housekeeping with supplies provided and basic, healthy meals. I am certified in CPR as a licensed EMT-Basic and am pet-friendly and a non-smoker.

I'm a loving aunt to several nieces and nephews, as well as a big animal lover with two cats of my own! I love engaging with children's curiosity and interests. More than that, I love teaching them about all sorts of things, and learning from them in return. I particularly enjoy cooking and baking. I'm happy to meet with you and your family to find out if I'm a good fit for you!
