Hi, My name is Laura, and I am a mother of three daughters and a grandmother of five grandchildren. I have raised/cared for children for 35 years. I enjoyed being a Sunday school teacher for young toddlers for two years, as well as leading a preschool class for two years. I have also worked in the home care industry for several years, enjoying the companionship and rewards of working with the elderly. I am a young-at-heart 57 year old mom/nana, who will bring a nurturing environment to children, as well as to the elderly. I am currently looking for part-time work, possibly leading to full-time. Thank you in advance for your consideration
Hi my name is Moideen! I’m a recent university graduate of the University of California, Berkeley. On the theoretical side, I studied the sociology and psychology of family dynamics and early childhood development. On the practical side, I have much experience sitting for the kids of my friends and friends of my parents and years of experience babysitting dozens of my cousins! I offer care for children, seniors, and pets and can also manage household tasks like cooking, and cleaning as well as other miscellaneous tasks!

"She was so flexible and came last minute to help out. The house was really neat when I got home and both kids were asleep. Two thumbs up!"

"Thrisa was amazing! Came over last minute and took amazing care of our 11 month old - including bedtime - she's coming back tomorrow :)"
