Hello! My name is Chandra or Chan Miss Chandra or Miss Chan. Caring for children isn’t just my job, it’s truly my passion. I’ve been a paraprofessional for 7 years and have spent my career supporting and nurturing children in both classroom and home settings. I worked as a 4K teacher assistant for 4 years, where I helped create a safe, engaging, and positive learning environment for young learners. I also helped run my church summer camp for 3 years, planning activities, supervising groups, and making sure every child felt included and cared for. In addition to working with many wonderful families as a babysitter, I’ve also helped raise my younger brother and my nephew — experiences that have shaped my patience, compassion, and understanding. Children hold a very special place in my heart, and I would be honored to be part of your child’s world, supporting their growth, celebrating their milestones, and providing dependable, loving care every step of the way.
Hi! My name is Sorayah, I’m currently studying Early Childhood Education at York Tech. I have hands on experience working with young children through my coursework and childcare labs. I’m patient, caring, responsible, and enjoy creating a fun and safe environment for children. I’m comfortable helping with playtime, routines, and keeping children engaged. I also have experience caring for pets since I have a cat, and I’m comfortable with simple meal preparation, light cleaning, and helping around the home. I’m dependable, organized, and always willing to learn and help wherever I’m needed.
Hi! My name is Emmalee, and I am currently working as a medication technician while continuing my education in healthcare. I am offering child care, senior care, and household assistance. I have a strong passion for caring for others and hope to work closely with children in the future. While most of my experience has been in healthcare, I have developed valuable skills such as patience, responsibility, and the ability to stay calm in stressful situations. I am CPR certified and confident in handling emergencies if they arise. I am happy to help with daily routines such as meal prep, light housekeeping, activities, and keeping children engaged and safe. I enjoy creating a positive and comfortable environment for the families I work with.
I’ve been a nanny for 8 years, during which I’ve had the privilege of caring for children of all ages and abilities, including those with special needs. My background in healthcare, having studied at Carolina College of Health Sciences, has given me a deeper understanding of children’s health and well-being. I’ve also worked in a pharmacy, which enhanced my attention to detail, responsibility, and ability to manage care routines effectively. Throughout my nanny career, I’ve been committed to providing exceptional care, ensuring that children feel safe, supported, and stimulated. I engage children in educational activities, including early language skills like teaching Spanish, reading, and sensory play. I also enjoy planning outdoor outings and ensuring they have a balanced daily routine with meals, naps, and interactive play. My experience working with diverse families and special needs children has allowed me to develop patience, empathy, and strong communication skills. These qualities, combined with my medical background, make me a compassionate and capable caregiver.
