We’re a women-owned and operated app committed to helping parents, preschools, and religious organizations find child care when they need it most. What started as a babysitter’s club in Atlanta has grown into a trusted network across the nation.

I have over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience working with children of different ages, from infants to school-age kids. Throughout the years, I have supported families with daily routines, homework help, meal preparation, playtime, and maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. I am patient, responsible, and very attentive to each child’s individual needs. In addition, I have 2 years of experience working as a substitute teacher, which has strengthened my skills in classroom management, lesson support, and engaging children in educational activities. This background helps me create structured, fun, and age-appropriate activities while also ensuring children feel supported and encouraged. I am reliable, caring, and committed to providing high-quality care that helps children learn, grow, and feel safe.
