Meet Shahara

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi families! My name is Shahara. A little bit about me: I absolutely love working with kids! I am a firm believer that our youth are not only the future; they are the present. Kids are a fascinating group of little people with so much knowledge and skill sets that make them just as a capable as us to change the world today--they just need adults who believe in them and their interests…& that is where I come in :) I am former middle school science teacher. I taught 6th and 7th grade science for 6 year, and am certified in Elementary Education (K-6). I can certainly provide tutoring in multiple subject areas if needed. My babysitting experience entails sitting for over 10 families, with children ages ranging from 7 months - 11 years old. Children under my care say that I am loving, patient, organized, and fun! I can Read more handle preparing meals for children of all ages, bed time routines and helping with chores around the house (i.e., dishes, laundry, light cleaning). I am open to some household duties, like housesitting, tidying, running small errands, and tutoring/support with school work. Thank you for considering me for the opportunity to serve your family--I look forward to meeting you all!

We hired Shahara to provided childcare for a large party with multiple families that we hosted. She was positive, flexible, helpful and wonderful with kids! There was a last minute change, and we were very thankful that Shahara followed through with helping us on such short notice. We were grateful for her teaching experience with multiple age groups, and can-do attitude when asked to assist with a few things at the party outside of childcare duties. We felt confident in her attentiveness and engagement with the children who had so much fun playing games with her. We would happily hire her again!
