As a certified early childhood educator with over nine years of experience, I specialize in providing high-quality care and education for infants through preschool-aged children.

Elyza Sharai
Hello! My name is Sharai and I am a kid-loving care giver, artist and educator! I have experience working with infants to teenagers, and have continued my passion of caring for kids and fostering their growth and knowledge both in an outside the classroom. With kids I love being active, doing art and imaginative play, and outside of work I love to ride my bike, read and bake.

Lorein
Hi! My name is Lorein , and I’m a warm, dependable toddler teacher with several years of hands-on experience caring for infants and toddlers. I absolutely love working with young children during these important early stages of development, and I focus on creating a nurturing, calm, and stimulating environment that supports their growth and milestones. I’m fluent in Spanish and happy to incorporate language learning into playtime, reading, and daily routines if that’s something your family values. Whether I’m soothing a newborn, managing nap schedules, introducing sensory play, or helping a toddler build confidence and independence, I approach each day with patience, love, and attention to detail. Parents I’ve worked with often describe me as trustworthy, gentle, and highly communicative. I’m also CPR/First Aid certified or have other relevant credentials

Maia
I have limited but meaningful, informal childcare experience, including babysitting a coworker’s three-year-old child. Through this, I’ve developed basic skills in supervision, safety, communication, and age-appropriate care. I am currently enrolled in an EMT course, which is strengthening my responsibility, situational awareness, and ability to remain calm in dynamic environments. I am eager to gain additional hands-on experience working with children and to continue building skills in caregiving, safety, and support.

Hi! My name is Grace and I’m a senior nursing student at Northeastern University. I’ve completed Pediatric and Maternity clinicals and currently help in a middle school health office doing school-nurse triage, caring for students with minor injuries and illnesses. I’m CPR certified, great with pets, and have babysitting experience with a sweet 3-year-old girl — including school pick-ups and in-home care in a house with both a dog and a cat. I’m patient, reliable, and love creating a fun and safe environment for kids of all ages. Excited to meet your family!

Emily
Hi! I’m an energetic soul who loves music and crafts. I approach children with compassion and understanding, though I will not hesitate to put my foot down when it comes to safety. I love encouraging movement and creativity, I find they are the best ways to promote independence, confidence, problem-solving, and connection while releasing their energy in a positive way! I’ve worked in schools with children ages 1 to 7 and am finishing up my associates degree in elementary education in the fall.

I love working with children because they are creative and smart in there own way, that they have taught me a lot about myself.

Rachel
Hi! I’m Rachel. I grew up as the middle child with an older brother and a younger brother, so taking care of kids has pretty much been part of my life from the start. I spent a lot of time helping with my little brother, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to handle the unexpected. I also have a dog at home, so I’m super comfortable around pets and love having them around while I’m babysitting. Last summer, I worked as a camp counselor at a drowning-prevention camp in Uganda, where I helped kids ages 4–12. It was one of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had, and it really strengthened my ability to work with different personalities and energy levels. I currently tutor a few middle schoolers in science over Zoom and have experience teaching a student with ADHD, so I’m familiar with supporting different learning needs. I also help my friends’ younger siblings with homework pretty often. Overall, I love being around kids, staying engaged with them, and creating a fun and safe environment. I’d be excited to get to know your family!
