Katelyn $10 per hour for 1 child
I worked at a daycare for about 6 months, and those were some of the best months of my life! I am able to work under stress well, and follow directions. I am the oldest of 6 siblings! Being able to provide a safe space for your children is my highest priority! I am most comfortable with infants and babies. I'm patient and kind, and open communication is very important to me!
Jaina $18 per hour for 1 child
I grew up taking care of my little brother who is on the autism spectrum. I’ve lived with and bred both dogs and cats, so I know my way around taking care of them.
Brooke $18 per hour for 1 child
I am dependable, patient, and caring, with experience working as a nanny and a lead CNA. My nursing education has taught me how to stay calm, pay close attention to safety, and respond responsibly when unexpected situations arise. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and making sure they feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I’m responsible, organized, and able to follow each family’s routines and instructions closely. I’m comfortable helping with playtime, meals, naps, homework, and bedtime routines. I also speak both English and Spanish. Most importantly, parents can trust that I will treat their children with kindness, patience, and care.
Betzi $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Betzi, and I'm a caring, reliable, and experienced nanny with over 3 years of hands-on experience working with children of different ages. I create a safe, fun, and structured environment where kids can feel happy, learn, and grow. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children through creative play, outdoor activities, and age-appropriate learning. I'm fully bilingual in English and Spanish, and I love helping children naturally develop language skills in both. I can also assist with homework, daily routines, and building positive habits. I'm known for being patient, attentive, and trustworthy. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and at ease, so I always communicate clearly and provide dependable, consistent care. I would love to support your family and be someone you can trust with your little ones I am also certified in CPR and First Aid.
Chaya $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi Everyone! I have worked with kids of all ages (as young as 4 weeks old), a variety of special needs children, and up to 8 children at one time. I have my Early Childhood Education degree and have been working with children for 17+ years! I love taking the kids outside to the park, for a walk, or a bike ride when it's nice. But when it's not so nice out, I like playing board games, coloring/crafts, reading books, having dance parties, making forts, or doing puzzles I have my own transportation as well.
