Hi! Iโm Bekah, a senior in college at RIT. I have one more year left for my Masterโs program, and Iโm looking for a good way to spend my summer! I love kids and would love the chance to help out in any way I can! I have a lot of experience in childcare, from volunteering in the church nursery with infants & toddlers, to counseling preteens at summer camp, to babysitting for family friends. Iโm great at keeping kids of all ages entertained with fun activities and could also help with any tutoring or schoolwork if needed (although thereโs probably not much of that in the summer). Iโll be between Rochester and Buffalo throughout the summer, so if you are in either location and need someone for a few days a week, Iโm your girl!

My name is Tiffany but my family calls me โLolaโ. I am a 25 years old Jamaican girl currently studying to become a nurse. I am also a compassionate and dependable caregiver with hands-on experience working with children and families in both professional and home settings. As a Certified Nursing Assistant, I am trained to be patient, attentive, and safety-focused while supporting the emotional and physical needs of others. I enjoy creating a calm, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, respected, and encouraged to be themselves. Families can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and attentive to routines, rules, and individual needs. I take pride in providing care that gives parents peace of mind and children a positive, supportive experience.

Iโm currently a sociology major, and Iโm passionate about helping children learn, grow, and feel supported in a safe environment. I bring a fun, patient, and energetic personality to every family I work with. I enjoy engaging kids in creative activities like arts and crafts, painting, drawing, dancing, and board games, while also encouraging learning and positive behavior. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and able to adapt to each childโs unique needs.
