Hi! My name is Jazmin, and I’m a dependable and structured college student with a strong sense of responsibility and care for others. I’m very organized, attentive, and calm under pressure. I naturally create a safe and positive environment while keeping routines consistent and structured. I understand how important trust is when it comes to childcare, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m comfortable helping with homework, reading time, light meal prep, creative activities, and maintaining bedtime or after-school routines. I value respect, patience, and clear communication β€” both with children and parents. My personality is calm, observant, and encouraging. I believe children do best when they feel safe, heard, and guided with consistency. You can expect me to be punctual, reliable, and fully present. I look forward to meeting your family!

Hi! My name is Maddy! I have past experience working with kids, and I really enjoy spending time with them! I'm CPR trained and always make safety a priority (while still keeping things fun and positive). I have my driver's license and my own car, so I'm flexible and can help with things like school pick-ups or errands if needed! I'm also super comfortable with pets, so that's never an issue! I try to create a relaxed, fun environment while still sticking to routines and helping out wherever I can. I'd love to be someone your family can count on!
