"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

I am a pet-sitter, experienced with cats and dogs of all ages. I am happy to house-sit as needed, available most hours of the day otherwise.
Tamara $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi parents! I’m a 4th grade teacher with over 10 years of childcare experience, and I absolutely love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from infants to pre-teens — and I bring my classroom experience into every sitting job, whether it’s helping with homework, reading together, or keeping little ones engaged in creative play. Along with childcare, I’m also experienced in household management, including light cleaning, laundry, organizing, and running errands. Families describe me as responsible, patient, and reliable, and I take pride in building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and parents. Looking forward to meeting your family!
