Hi! My name is Gloriahna. I have a passion for childcare and have a care for all children, especially the ones that I work with. I have worked with kids for 9+ years now. The most current position being a teacher at New Creations Child Care Learning Center. I have also worked as a family babysitter, a church daycare teacher, and a camp counselor for multiple age groups. I make it a priority to provide the best care and attention of any child that is in my care. I believe in this next generation and want to help the kids grow up the best way that they can! Added bonus: I also have years of pet care experience, so I’m here for all childcare and/or pet care needs!
Hi! My name is Camilly, and I have experience caring for children of different ages. I’m responsible, patient, and love creating a fun and safe environment for kids.

I’m passionate about child development and always strive to make every day enjoyable for the little ones. Looking forward to connecting with a great family
I have always been said to have a gift for caring for babies even when I was a baby myself. I have always wanted to help others which is why I am headed for the medical field. I am currently pursuing a BSN in biology with a minor in psychology, child development is something I have always been amused by and I find it an honor to be a part of a child’s development. Growing up the legal working age was 16 so I was babysitting for friends and family from ages 10-15. I still offer my services to this day. I have been a tutor to older kids, and a caregiver to their younger siblings while keeping the house tidy. At most I have cared for 3 siblings all at different developmental stages (ages 1-9). I have cared for newborns as well. I am a direct care professional for adults with special needs half time, I was also a PCA for elderly memory challenged clients.
Hi, I’m Harmony, I’m 23years old, I am a student, I love working in the community and working with families and children! I have lots of experience working with children in different fields, nursery, summer school, church nursery, youth group. I look forward to working with a family soon :)
Hi! My name is Hamdi, and I have several years of experience working with children in both school and one-on-one settings. I have worked as a Special Education Paraprofessional and currently provide one-on-one care as a Personal Care Assistant (PCA) for an individual with autism. These experiences have taught me patience, compassion, responsibility, and the importance of creating a safe, supportive environment where children can thrive. I enjoy helping children learn, play, and build confidence through engaging activities, homework help, outdoor play, reading, arts and crafts, and positive routines. I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to provide care that meets each family’s individual needs. Families can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and caring. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while ensuring their children feel safe, happy, and valued. I look forward to becoming a trusted part of your family’s support system!
