Abeer $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Abeer, and I’m currently an Optician student at City Tech. I’m offering reliable and caring childcare services. I’ve been babysitting since middle school and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. As a single mom myself, I understand the joys and challenges that come with caring for kids and keeping them happy, safe, and engaged throughout the day. I enjoy cooking, tutoring, and doing fun arts and crafts activities with children. I also have a valid driver’s license and can assist with transportation if needed. I’d love the opportunity to provide a safe, caring, and enjoyable environment for your little ones! 😊
