"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 have a passion working with children, helping them to grow, develop and learn by considering each child's uniqueness. I have been providing guidance and support to children. I have been babysitting and working for childcare over two years. My role involves taking care of youngest to older children , serving meals, changing diaper, clean after eating, putting for nap. I also took care of my mother in law for several years. I make sure to maintain good communication with families about their children's progress. I like to create fun activities to get children engaged. I am all about improvement in the workplace and integrity and fairness is very important to me.

Hello! I was an elementary school teacher for 4 years, but I have now started law school in Greensboro, NC. I love working with children of all ages, and have experience with babysitting at home, picking-up and dropping-off, teaching, tutoring, and field trips. I love caregiving because I am young at heart and am able to connect well with children. Additionally, I love seeing them grow and making an impact in a child's life. Something personal about me is that I have a dog whom I love with my whole heart, and I am also a classically trained singer. I look forward to potentially working with your family.
“Gabby was very professional, caring and easy to work with. She cared for my daughter (8) several times and each time has been on time, engaged and responsive. We would be happy to work with her again”
