Natalie $25 per hour for 1 child
My background in childcare includes having 7 children of my own who are grown now. While they were growing up I had a licensed daycare home for 9-10 years, in Colorado and Kentucky. I loved and miss working with children, and all my grandchildren live out of state now.:(
Hallie $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Hallie, a caring, dependable, and energetic caregiver with experience working with children in both professional and personal settings. I currently work with young children and have experience creating fun, engaging, and age-appropriate activities while maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s individual needs and routines. I enjoy helping children learn, play, and grow through creative activities, outdoor time, reading, and hands-on play. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident when leaving their children with someone else, and I strive to provide dependable, trustworthy care while keeping families updated. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide a fun, safe, and positive experience for your little ones!
amanda $15 per hour for 1 child
Helloo !! My name is Amanda , I've always watched my younger siblings for my mother whenever she was busy, tired, or didn't have anyone to watch them. I didn't have a job at the moment but there was this small daycare near our home and that was my first ever job and I love working with the children. I am still currently working at this job I've been at this job for about two years now and I still enjoy working here I am also in school at the moment to get my degree I plan on becoming a pediatric nurse after my courses in college. I enjoy working with kids because I'm able to learn new things from a different perspective, I get to come up with fun activities for the kids, I'm able to also build a connection with the child. In my spare time, I like to go on walks or spend quality time with my family and friends. One thing you should know about me is I have a bubbly personality and once I put my mind to something I am very determined, I am not disrespectful and I am very hard working.
