A little bit about me

I am the mother of a 4-year-old boy. I am looking for a job while my son studies. I am new to this country and have no experience in this job, but as a mother I do it great. I love children. I am loving, protective, and empathetic. I know that as mothers we want our children to be cared for as we would, so I would do this job with all the love in the world.

I don't know much English, I'm studying to learn it better, but I have the desire and the disposition to do my incredible job.

I don't have any certifications. I'm just looking for an opportunity. Thank you very much.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Rebecca Bekele! I’m currently pursuing my Master of Public Health in Community Health Science at Tulane University and have over five years of experience working with children in both academic and community settings. I’m passionate about creating supportive, inclusive spaces where kids can grow, feel confident, and stay healthy—whether that’s through education, physical activity, or mentorship. I’m also certified in Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED and a licensed Community Health Worker. I’ve worked as a tutor, mentor, and program coordinator, and I love bringing energy, creativity, and care into everything I do. I’m fluent in Amharic and always excited to connect with families and communities from diverse backgrounds.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Emiaya, and I'm originally from Oakland, California, though I recently moved to Houston, Texas, to attend Texas Southern University. I'm a full-time student and athlete, and while I’m focused on my studies, I also have a passion for childcare.

Growing up with four siblings (and eventually six), I was the second-born, and though my oldest sibling wasn't around much, I quickly found myself stepping up to take on more responsibility. From a young age, my family ran a daycare, so I’ve had experience caring for children since I was about 8 years old. What started as babysitting grew into a genuine hobby, and I’ve come to love the balance and joy that taking care of kids brings—despite the challenges it can sometimes present.

That's why I’ve chosen to continue pursuing this path, and I’d love to help provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your little ones!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Jessica Lee! I am about to graduate with my B.S. in Kinesiology. I love exploring the city by finding spontaneous things to do like Pilates in the park or going to a flea market. When I am not busy being a student, I love dancing, watching the sun set, playing board games, and volunteering at my church. I have three younger siblings all under the age of eight and have a heart to pour into the next generation. I believe that you can find joy in anything. I hope to be a blessing to your family and help however you see fit.
