Tashionna 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Tashi, I’ve been working with children and seniors for about a decade. I’m a total people’s person so I absolutely love what I do. I know that it is imperative to help the children are seniors that I’m working with to challenge themselves every day. I can help with a variety of things, cooking, cleaning and errands.

“We've met a number of different childcare providers, but no one like Tashionna. Our kids LOVE her! She is so good with them, our youngest always asks "when is Tashionna coming back?!" As parents, we appreciate that she is always reliable and professional. She also helps us out when we need a little extra flexibility. Every parent knows the value of that! Tashionna is bilingual and has been teaching our kids some Spanish. That was something we hadn't thought about, but the educational value of it was a nice surprise. Our oldest is in high school now and he really excels in his foreign language class, I know she was a big influence. She's a fantastic care-giver, we highly recommend her. - Claire”

Jessica $20 per hour for 1 child

I have a full time office job but have free time in the evenings and weekends. I helped raise my sister while my parents worked since I was 13 so I do have experience just not professionally. I used to dog-sit for a couple of years before I moved back to my hometown.
