"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."

Jasmine $20 per hour for 1 child
My name is Jasmine I’m looking for part time job right now as I have a full time job Monday through Saturday (every other Saturday ) I have been taking care of children since I was 15 years old. I have experience with newborns, toddlers, middle aged kids. I have a lot of patience for children and enjoy teaching new things. I don’t have any kids of my own yet but hope to some day. I enjoy pets but am allergic to cats. I can run errands and do light house keeping.
Anita $30 per hour for 1 child
Lead with love , Serving with purpose. I am grateful to walk in a calling, not just a job. I believe the world becomes better; one tender moment at a time when we lead with compassion, empathy, and love. That is my north star. I’m a technology delivery leader by day and a lifelong servant at heart, I bring the same precision and warmth to a boardroom as I do to a bedtime story. I have cared for little ones who test every boundary (and every snack supply) and for seniors who deserve dignity, laughter, and patient companionship. My service looks like showing up fully, that is, homework help, diaper diplomacy, medication reminders, and the art of making grilled cheese exactly right. I do not just mind your family, I steward them. 😊
