As a nanny with over 5-10+ years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with several amazing families. One memorable experience was with the Jones family, where I cared for their two children, aged 10 months and 6, for five years. My responsibilities included creating engaging activities, preparing nutritious meals, and ensuring their safety and well-being. I developed a strong bond with the children and became an integral part of their daily routine. I also assisted with homework, transportation to extracurricular activities, and organized playdates. I maintained open communication with the parents, providing regular updates on the children's progress and addressing any concerns promptly. Additionally, I utilized my creativity to plan educational and fun outings, fostering their curiosity and love for learning. My time with the Jones family was incredibly rewarding, as I witnessed the children grow and thrive under my care.
“Cinthian is thoughtful, kind, and the kids really enjoyed playing with her, they didn't want her to leave.”
Hello! My name is Sharai and I am a kid-loving care giver, artist and educator! I have experience working with infants to teenagers, and have continued my passion of caring for kids and fostering their growth and knowledge both in an outside the classroom. With kids I love being active, doing art and imaginative play, and outside of work I love to ride my bike, read and bake.
Hi there! My name is Noor, and I’d love the opportunity to help care for your little ones! I have experience babysitting children of different ages, along with 2 years of experience as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). My experience as an RBT has given me lots of experience working with children, understanding their individual needs, and creating a fun and supportive environment for them. I’m CPR certified and always make safety a top priority. I love keeping kids engaged through play, activities, and simply making sure they have a fun time while they’re in my care. I’m patient, caring, and dependable, and I want both you and your children to feel comfortable and happy while you’re away!
Hi! I’m Amelia, I am currently a college student studying psychology and an associate teacher in an early childhood care center. I’ve spent years working with children of all ages; infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school‑age kids, through babysitting, teaching, youth leadership, and community programs. I love getting to know each child’s personality and creating an environment where they feel comfortable, supported, and excited to be themselves. With infants and toddlers, I’m confident with feeding, diapering, soothing, nap routines, sensory play, and early developmental milestones. I’m calm, patient, and very comfortable reading cues and creating a predictable, nurturing space. With older kids, I enjoy homework help, creative projects, outdoor time, structured activities, and supporting emotional regulation and independence. I adapt easily to shy, energetic, sensitive, or spirited kids and meet them exactly where they are. I’m passionate about helping children explore the world around them. Whether that’s going outside, doing hands‑on activities, or finding small everyday moments that spark curiosity and joy. Families describe me as warm, reliable, organized, and easy to communicate with. I value building strong relationships with parents and keeping communication clear and consistent. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, don’t smoke, and happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and maintaining routines. My goal is always to create a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and grow confidently. Please be sure of your hours before booking. You are responsible for the full hours listed, even if you arrive home early. I’m more than happy to extend hours as long as there is clear communication ahead of time. This helps me plan my schedule and ensures I can give your family the best care possible.
