Jameila $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! my name is Meila. I’m currently a junior at SFASU getting my bachelor degree in Social work. I’ve been working in childcare for about 5 years now. I’m currently a Pre-K teacher at merit children’s academy. I have been babysitting my former students for about a year now. I love being around my kiddos, helping them learn, giving them love and watching them grow! Most of my experience are with 4s and up but i am open to any age. I’m a pet lover (dogs) so i am comfortable being around them. I also can do any household work that is needed (:

Lavonda $14 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Lavonda and I am a former caregiver/child transportator. I am offering child care services to loving families within a safe environment. I have enjoyed providing families with support with watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and school age kids (including twins!) I have provided care for a long time especially raising children of my own. I like to work and help in a clean environment and provide tidiness during the sleeping hours. I am allergic to cats and I have a a phobia of dogs due to a dog bite. If your house fits this criteria, i look forward to serving!
