I have over five years of experience working with children through both babysitting and classroom settings. I started as a babysitter, caring for children of various ages, which helped me develop strong skills in creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments. In addition, I worked in an elementary school where I assisted in a two-year-old classroom. There, I supported daily activities, helped with learning routines, and encouraged social and emotional development.
Hello, It is very nice to find you here. I began my childcare, elder care, and pet care services as a teenager, and I am now in my mid 50s. I love caring for others and making them feel supported. I have worked with children from infants through high school. As a teen, I was the neighborhood babysitter :-). After I finished college, I became a substitute teacher for grades K-12 and subsequently an elementary school teacher of 2nd grade. Kids are great little people! During my high school years, I was the neighborhood pet sitter. Currently I am able to go to the pet's home to make sure they are taken for walks and fed along with other needs. Dogs, cats, pet rabbits, and other furry creatures are little bundles of love. :-) My elder care experience began with my grandmother who developed Alzheimer's nearly 10 years ago. I took care of her daily living needs, cooking, errands, and social events. I have since had a number of elder care clients who need support in their living space. It gives me great pleasure to know I've made someone else's day better with my caring skills. Looking forward to chatting with you.
“Tanya has helped me run my household several times in a few different capacities over several decades. She was an excellent baby sitter for my son, and I also have trusted her with house and pet sitting. Tanya is reliable, honest and a real pleasure as a person. She is kind, compassionate and attuned. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
Hi my name is Hannah(Han-yuh). I am offering childcare, household services, and pet care. I have nanny experience with toddlers and babies. Babies were 5 months-9 months and the toddler was 2-4 year old. I also babysit have been babysitting ages 3-12 since I was around 12. While nannying I also did household chores like dishes, laundry, cleaning the floors, and making food for the children. I work as a surf instructor at a kids camp working with up to 28 kids ages 6-14 which allows me to have experience with many age ranges while working in a higher stress environment with children.
Looking for a part time or full time nanny/babysitter? I have a master's degree in child development, along with over 11 experience working with infants, toddlers, and children in a variety of settings. I love to share activities like stories, art, music, yoga, cooking, and other enriching activities. I also have a degree in music and can incorporate piano, guitar, ukulele, etc. :) I also have excellent references.

I have experience working with children through volunteering and tennis camps, where I helped teach skills, supervise activities, and support a safe, fun environment. I’ve also volunteered with a non-profit organization supporting children through engagement and care. I have experience with pets through volunteering at animal shelters and from owning a dog. I enjoy caregiving because I like creating a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment for children and pets. I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure. In my free time, I enjoy staying active, especially through sports like tennis.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
