Sophia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Sophia, a behavioral aide at a therapeutic day school who is passionate about supporting children’s growth, learning, and well-being. I’ve been babysitting and tutoring since I was 14 years old and have experience working with children of all ages, from newborns through teenagers. In addition to childcare, I have worked as a family assistant, helping with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, running errands, and caring for pets. I enjoy being a dependable extra set of hands and helping families keep their busy lives running smoothly. In my current full-time role, I work with elementary and middle school students who have a variety of learning disabilities and mental health challenges. This experience has made me especially comfortable working with neurodivergent children and supporting kids in educational settings. My strengths include creating consistent routines, planning fun and engaging activities, helping with homework and academics, and building positive, supportive relationships with children. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and help create a safe, fun, and engaging environment for your children!

Michelle $45 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Michelle :) I am currently a graduate student enrolled in a school psychology program. I have 7+ years of working with children (2-18y) with special needs in private settings and schools. I’ve also babysat for family members and friends. I am offering childcare and household services, such as laundry, school pick-ups and daily errands. I love music ( I’ve taught my sister how to play the piano!) and all things sports. If you’re looking for someone who’s very involved with play and conversation, comfortable with behavioral needs, or someone who can be kind yet firm, I’m the one for you!

Lena $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi I'm a mother of three and grandmother of two--and my daughter in law is also expecting baby #3! I'm offering child care. I owned and operated my own shipping and packaging service center- and then became a full time stay at home mom! Currently, I am a teacher's aide and noon/lunch duty supervisor and babysit part time, via app. I'm very allergic to cats, and I never use harsh chemicals or scents (sensitive to these) in my home cleaning. I'm available on a part time basis while my children are in school or afterwards, as well as Saturday/Sunday. Currently, while my 13 yo daughter is on summer break I'm available mornings and afternoons and she would love to join me in babysitting.
