Michele $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Michele. I’m a caring and dependable professional with years of experience supporting people of all ages. As a proud mother of three grown children and a Certified Medical Assistant, I’ve provided compassionate care to children, seniors, families, and terminally ill loved ones. I have worked in many professional positions, but I always return to caretaking — it truly feels like what I’m meant to do.

Hi there! My name is Diana, and I have 12 years experience in childcare, I've worked with kids from newborns to high-school age. I was an Au Pair for one year and a half and I had the opportunity to work with kids of different ages, not only that, but I also have experience doing overnight and date-night sitting. I have taken the CPR and first AID course, because it was a requirement to be an Au Pair. My connection with children has always been great. I love working with them, and we always have a blast. Not only I do enjoy reading with children, but I love activities outside, go to the park or to a local library, making up fun games - whether it be a puppet show or hide-and-seek and I like cooking as well. What will I do with your children? It depends on them and what they like to do. What I will tell you is that I will work to keep them busy and constantly engaged. Sometimes it's great to stay at home, build a fort, bake some goodies, and have a movie day. However, sometimes it's great to go outside and take the train or drive to different parts of the city and visit every park you pass, local libraries or museums. There are so many things, places, and people to learn from in this world. Please contact me if you have any questions! Thank you for take the time and read a little more about me, I hope hearing from you!!

“Diana was excellent and I would recommend her totally!”

Hello Families! My name is Sara. I have both professional and personal experience in caring for children of all ages. I am CPR and AED certified. I am trilingual with fluency in English and Amharic, and limited working proficiency in Spanish. I also have previous K-5 tutoring experience and as a college student myself, I understand the value of education. I am very active and have no problem playing with little ones for long periods of time. I am open to offering homework assistance, teaching practical skills, taking children outside or to practice, helping within the house (cooking, laundry, errands, planning, light tidying,etc) and anything else you may need in between. I also have experience in pet care (dog-walking and cat-sitting). I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and supportive. It would be my pleasure and goal to help make your daily routine easier in any way I can.
