My name is Rahela Torno, and I want to tell you why you’ll be glad I’m taking care of your children. I have over ten years paid experience, including families with children ranging from newborn to nine years old. I have great child skills combined with ability to expose children to new cultural experiences. My most recent position is with a mom of two boys – a newborn and just under three years old. She is a professional analyst working from home, so I have to be conscious of her need for undisturbed work time throughout the day. From 8 am to 4 pm, the children spend their time playing games, enjoying age-appropriate activities, and having homemade lunches. My client often expresses her appreciation for my adaptability, enthusiasm, and ability to handle any situation. My prior clients were a professional family with two children which grew to three while we were together. In addition to the activities above, I was responsible for picking up the older boy from pre-school, and when the third child was born, helping with infant care, and taking care of the two older boys when one of the parents wasn’t home. I normally worked afternoons/early evenings Monday thru Friday, and occasionally took on a Friday or Saturday evening when the couple wanted a “date night”. I think that children are central to a happy family life, and I practice love and positive reinforcement techniques when caring for my charges. I appreciate any potential client taking the time to consider my application. I believe that children, starting from newborn, need freedom to explore from a feeling of being loved and protected. I enjoy sharing new discoveries with children and encouraging them to grow and learn in happiness. You can contact me with any questions. I would love to work with your family and get to know your children. I have certified in both Infant First Aid and CPR

I’ve always loved being around children I’m the oldest of 4 kids so I’ve grown up watching my siblings and babysitting at a very young age. Moved in to having my own children in my earlier 20’s and also being nanny and raising my two daughters. I’ve worked in healthcare so my love for caring for people is very high. And now I get to be around all my very young nieces and nephew and take care of them as well. I absolutely love the energy and joy of children and glad that now that my youngest is 14 I get to be around all my family and watch them grow!! I hope you consider me I would love to be able to help out your family and give and give you so much needed time to share or get away with the ability to feel that they are in great hands!

Hi! I’m a warm, attentive childcare provider with nearly 3 years of experience working with young children, including time as a preschool teacher and a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). I care for children ages 2 months to 5 years, with infants being my absolute favorite- I’m often affectionately called the “baby whisperer.” I have a very calming, intuitive presence and love tuning into each child’s unique needs. I’m patient, gentle, and highly attentive, whether that means soothing a newborn, supporting a bedtime routine, or managing multiple little ones with ease. I’m very comfortable with bottle prep, diapering, naps, bedtime routines, and creating a peaceful, secure environment where children feel safe and cared for. I also have about a year of experience working with children with special needs, which has deepened my sensitivity, flexibility, and ability to meet children where they are developmentally and emotionally. I currently work full-time at a preschool, so I’m available for evening care, weekend care (Saturdays before 4pm and Sundays after 3pm), and I’m also open to overnight care. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, and have reliable transportation. Caring for young children- especially babies- is something I genuinely love. I aim to provide the kind of nurturing, steady presence that gives parents peace of mind and helps children feel deeply secure and comforted.
