A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a junior at Duke University and a thoughtful, dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys connecting with kids and supporting their growth. I worked at a summer camp last year, where I learned how to balance fun, creativity, and structure while staying attentive to each child’s needs. I also have tutoring experience and enjoy helping kids build confidence in their learning in a patient, encouraging way. I bring a calm, flexible presence and am happy supporting everything from activities and playtime to homework and daily routines. My goal is to create a safe, engaging environment where kids feel supported and comfortable being themselves.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Kaiyah (Kai-yuh). I’ve always loved working with kids and have experience caring for children of different ages. I’m patient, responsible, and great at keeping kids engaged—whether that’s helping with homework, playing outside, doing crafts, or just making sure they feel safe and happy.

I build strong, trusting relationships with both kids and parents, and I always try to create a fun but structured environment. I’m also reliable, communicative, and take my responsibilities seriously.

For me, babysitting isn’t just about the job—the best part is getting to connect with the kids and be someone they enjoy being around and can depend on.

A little bit about me

I’m hardworking and ambitious. I have been taking duel enrollment courses for 2 years, and had all of high school credits by the end of my first semester junior year. I did chose to not graduate early though because that gave me the opportunity to get closer to earning my bachelor’s degree. I enjoy work that involves human connection and giving back to my community. Furthermore, I work with a non-profit that helps run a program called The Strengthening Families Program. In this program we break down lessons week by week for different age groups (toddlers, childrens, teens, and adults). I help out in the kids (5-12) class with teaching and assignments. We cover ways to healthily manage emotions and promote positive connections in family spaces in an age appropriate manner. (This is a commitment I have until the end of May on Tuesday nights.) I'd love to be your helping hand! Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

"Ella is a family friend. Not only is she a mature and respectable young lady, she also has a natural way of connecting with people. Me and my husband have know her since she was toddler and even at a young age she'd try her very best to take care of those around her. She is great with cooking, and baking! Honestly freshly baked treats are the real service. The childcare is a bonus! Ella also works well with animals. So well in fact I worry my cats like her more than me! I would trust this chick any day of the week. Her drive to help her community is admirable, and I'm sure you'd love to get to know her."
