Hi! My name is Heaven, and I’m a passionate, reliable, and energetic caregiver with years of experience working with children of all ages. From museums to summer camps to after-school programs, I’ve supported kids in creative, safe, and engaging environments that help them grow and thrive. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, have worked as a Child and Youth Program Assistant for military families, and I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Museum Studies with a focus on education and youth programming. Whether it’s helping with homework, leading fun activities, or just being a supportive presence, I love building meaningful connections with the children and families I work with.
Hello! I am Raina, 16 years old and a highschooler. I have a plethora of experience working with children, from infants to little children of ages 4-6. I speak English and French and I am open to learning a third language, or the basics, if it would be preferred. I do not work at night but I am available on week days to work for a few hours from afternoon to evening during this summer break, part-time. I find leisure in several activities, indoors or outdoors such as music, writing, singing, drawing and painting, hiking, sports - like soccer, tennis, volleyball and more. It would be an absolute pleasure to make your acquaintance, as I am a fast learner and I adapt to new situations with relative ease.
