Aaj $18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Potomac, MD

Hi! I’m Aaj, a 20 year old junior currently studying at American University. I’m offering childcare services. I love being with children - my mother has run a preschool for the past 21 years, and I spent many years volunteering and interning with her, as a TA in classes and organizing Sports Days. I have also been involved in numerous charities that work with impoverished children in Nepal, where I used to run weekly activities that benefit early childhood development (reading/writing, arts and crafts, sports etc.). I have also completed an Early Childhood Montessori Education program, as a supplemental to my time at the preschool. I grew up with 5 dogs, and I love all sorts of pets!

I love being a sitter because I enjoy spending time with children, helping them learn, have fun, and feel safe. It makes me happy to support their growth and create positive experiences for them. I am a qualified teacher and I have experience working with children of different ages in educational settings and childcare. I have also worked as a babysitter, caring for children, organizing activities, and helping with daily routines. I have strong communication skills, patience, creativity, and responsibility. I enjoy planning fun activities such as arts and crafts, storytelling, educational games, outdoor play, music, dancing, and creative learning activities based on each child’s age.

Hello! My name is Shamaine and I’m a warm, energetic, and nurturing caregiver with a passion for creating safe, fun, and engaging environments for children.

I’m known for being creative, responsible, and dependable, with a playful spirit that kids love. I’m happy to help with light meal prep, tidying up, bedtime routines, and keeping things in order while you’re away. I’d love to be a reliable helping hand for your family and a positive role model for your kids!
