Hi! My name is Saroya, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who truly enjoys working with children.

Azaria $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Azaria! I'm 25 years old. I have over 11 years of experience caring for kids through babysitting, camp counseling, and my professional career. I've had the opportunity to work with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers! Working with children has always been something I'm passionate about. I'm patient, nurturing, creative, dependable, and attentive to each child's individual needs. My background in mental health has helped me develop strong communication skills, an understanding of child development, and the ability to create a safe, supportive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I love finding fun and engaging ways to keep kids entertained, whether through arts and crafts, imaginative play, reading, games, outdoor adventures, or other age-appropriate activities. I also enjoy helping children express their emotions, build confidence, and navigate big feelings in a supportive way. I'm happy to assist with meal and snack preparation, bedtime routines, homework, and maintaining your family's established routines. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and building connections with families in my community. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their little ones in someone else's care, and I strive to provide that peace of mind through compassionate, responsible, and attentive caregiving. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and help create a fun, safe, and positive environment where your children can feel happy, supported, and cared for!

Cheyenne $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cheyenne, and I’m a caring, reliable childcare provider with a strong background in early childhood education. I’ve been babysitting since I was a teenager, which gave me an early foundation in responsibility, patience, and working with children of different ages and personalities. Professionally, I started as a substitute teacher in a daycare setting, which allowed me to gain experience across multiple classrooms and age groups. From there, I was promoted to a Pre-K assistant teacher and later worked as a school-age teacher, where I continued building meaningful connections and supporting children’s learning and development. I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable being themselves. Whether it’s helping with early learning activities, homework, or just making sure your child has a great time, I bring patience, structure, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your children, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care you can feel confident in.
