Hello! I am 17. I can drive myself to and from your house most of the time. I cannot care for non-potty trained children. I can cook kid-friendly and filling meals, read to your children, clean up any child detritus, take them outside and basically just entertain. I am happy working alone or with you in the house. I always listen to house rules and prefer a scree-free environment while I am supervising your children. I can do simple first aid. I love being outside and am happy to teach your kids how to safely be in nature. I can do english and science tutoring. I can also do wind-downs and put your kids to bed, including brushing teeth.

My rate is 12 dollars/hr for one child, 14 dollars an hour for two children and 17 dollars/hr for three. My age range is 4 to 12 years. I need the kids to be potty trained, and I cannot bathe your children. I also will need to be able to leave around nine, but that is adjustable with communication.

I live in charlotte and can’t really make it unless you’re within about 40 minutes of me. Please message me so I can check if I can make it. Huntersville is about as far as I go.

I can care for autistic and other special needs kids as long as they are potty-trained. I have some experience handling autistic kids. I love hearing about special interests and I like to keep a quiet, routine-driven environment.

I appreciate being filled in on household rules and routines. I always observe these rules. If I have free time I can do chores such as laundry (as a rule I get the house back to the same shape as when I arrived), and if I’m putting your kids to sleep I am happy to do some housework after they’re down.

My skills and interests:

  • Music
  • Singing
  • Reading / storytelling
  • Drawing / painting
  • Arts / crafts
  • Swimming
