Experience: 20 yrs
Nurturing a child's growth is my greatest passion, and I have dedicated the past 20 years to providing reliable, high-quality care with a 13-year-old son of my own. My approach is rooted in patience and creativity, ensuring that every child feels supported and inspired. I am comfortable caring for up to four children, ranging from infants to pre-teens. Whether we are playing outdoor sports, solving puzzles, or engaging in educational games, I strive to make a positive impact every day. I am happy to assist with light housekeeping, crafts, and swimming supervision. I follow your lead on household rules and adapt my communication style to your preference, whether through verbal updates or text. I am also very comfortable with pets. Ultimately, I am eager to bring my experience and warmth into your home to help your family thrive.
Betina was/is the perfect fit for our family. She is thoughtful, kind, responsible, extremely flexible, and (confirmed by my kids) really fun to hangout with! I cannot recommend her enough if you’re looking for someone trustworthy to put your mind at ease when you are away. We hired her to pickup our two elementary aged daughters - in 2nd and 5th grade - from school and bring them back to our house multiple days every week (until we’re able to get home from work). We are a multiply-neurodivergent family, and my girls aren’t happy with just any adult. And yet- I have never seen them happier when I get home from my job. They have had all of their needs so wonderfully met after a long school day, that for the first time (maybe ever), they are completely content when I walk in the door, and just tell me about the wonderful time they had with Betina.
