Scherly $23 per hour for 1 child

I’m a mother of two teenage boys and a graduate student with a background in history, which has helped me develop strong organizational skills and a calm, patient approach to caregiving. I also have experience working as a nanny, where I cared for both a toddler and a six-month-old baby who truly thrived under my care. I enjoy creating a warm and engaging environment for children, with plenty of hands-on activities, reading time, simple learning games, and outdoor play. I’m committed to making sure kids feel safe, supported, and encouraged to explore. With a mix of real parenting experience and professional childcare work, I bring reliability, kindness, and a genuine care for children.
