Elizabed $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Liz, and I have over three years of experience caring for children from infants to 8 years old. I've worked with multiple families, including children with autism, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where every child feels comfortable and cared for. I'm patient, dependable, and love keeping kids engaged through crafts, outdoor play, reading, educational activities, and imaginative games. I'm also happy to help with meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework, and maintaining daily routines. I speak both English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate with a variety of families. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, and I always strive to provide reliable, compassionate care while building positive relationships with both parents and kids. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and help your little ones learn, grow, and have fun!

I'm patient, responsible, and very easy to communicate with. Whether it's homework help, creative activities, outdoor play, or keeping a consistent routine, I'm someone who makes sure kids feel safe, supported, and engaged.
