"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."

Booked by 1 family in Ozone Park, NY
Hi, I am Pema! I have been working with children ages 4-11 for the past three summers at Tree Frog Treks, a science and nature focused summer camp in San Francisco. In my role as Naturalist, I led groups of children in full days of exploring, productive play, and hands-on inquiry-based learning about science and nature in Golden Gate Park and throughout the city. I recently earned my Bachelor's degree from Wesleyan University with high honors in Dance and Environmental Studies and I am excited for the opportunity to continue my passion for working with kids beyond the summer season. I am passionate about the environment and love engaging with kids outside. I also love anything creative, with a background in visual arts and musical theater, in addition to dance.
“Pema was punctual, friendly and a great sport playing with my toddler.”

Jordan $25 per hour for 1 child
Hello parents and caregivers! I'm Jordan, a NYC–based caregiver with a passion for childcare! I'm a recent UC Berkeley alum who has spent countless hours through education-centered coursework and hands on experience investing in the bright minds of tomorrow! My experience includes working with children in both formal household settings, as well as in educational environments (through tutoring and volunteering at school events). I bring a thoughtful, attentive approach to caregiving that prioritizes safety, creativity, and emotional awareness. Beyond childcare, I have experience assisting with pet care and household tasks, and I’m happy to support busy families with errands or light upkeep as needed. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of each family’s values and routines. Whether it’s keeping kids entertained off-screens, helping them learn or simply making sure they feel safe and heard, I aim to create a calm, positive environment parents can trust!
