Hello Parents, Yissell was a amazing with my son! She was a regular nanny/babysitter 3 days for my 15-18 month old. I had gone through a couple other people and was immediately impressed by how natural yissell was with my son on day 1. She stepped in like it was second nature. She not only fostered a relationship with my son where he jumped up everything she arrived ready to go play but she created an environment where my son could grow. I work a lot and yissell ensured my son socialized, went out, learned new things and sent pictures back home. She was less like a nanny and more like my sons advocate. I say this as she would tell me what new toy at the park he really liked or let me know she'd text me if she saw something somewhere she thought he'd enjoy. She also helped us prepare for daycare and ready my son for new experiences. I cannot speak highly enough about yissell. If I could of I would prefer her caring for him full time while I was working. I'll also note that she provided so much assistance to my family in staying late some days, filling cars up with gas, walking the dog during naps, basically filling all the gaps that she can. She is so much more than just a sitter. As a first time mom having her help my son with speaking, sign language, and helping cleanup was more than I could have dreamed of. I watched him grow so much under her care. He started communicating more, signing consistently, sharing and engaging with kids.

We reached out Riley for a last minute request to babysit our 18 month old daughter. Riley arrived on time and immediately connected with our daughter. She played with our daughter throughout the day, helped feed her, and kept her entertained. We had a really great experience with Riley and we highly recommend her to other parents. We look forward to inviting her back in the future.

Mayte L.
- 10 years paid experience
- 5 miles
Hello, my name is Mayte, I am a college graduate and have an associates degree in Liberal Arts. I have over 15 years experience in caring for small children ages 4 months to 12 years old. I worked at the Boys and Girls Club for a little over a year and enjoyed being a group leader, I was in charge of a group of 20 kids and had to follow a daily curriculum. I currently work as a instructional assistant, and have experience with children from elementary to high school. I work with kids with special needs mod/severe. Additionally, I have volunteered at a preschool in which I supervised the children during play time, helped them get to sleep at nap time, assisted them at lunch, and anything else the teacher needed assistance with. Lastly, my earliest experience would be taking care of my three nephews and one niece all at once, I changed their diapers, fed them, and kept them entertained. I am a kid at heart and I would enjoy doing any activities your child may like, from watching cartoons to playing video games, board games, playing outside, arts and crafts, you name it. I have been hired by different families in the past where I have changed baby's diapers, bathed, fed, put them to bed, picked them up from school, entertained them, getting them ready for school, and everything in between. Since I work from 8am to 3pm I am available for after school care, date nights, school holiday breaks, and most weekends. (I am willing to undergo a background check) Thank you.

Antigone helped with our 3 school age kids at the hotel resort 2 days in a row. The kids really enjoyed her and were glad to have her back. She entertained them in ways we hadn’t even considered. Traffic in this area along with road work is an issue but we had given ourselves a cushion for time and parking. She followed directions well. Would definitely hire again.
