Hi, I'm Rachel! As a parent of four wonderful children-aged 14, 9, 7, and 2. 5-I have extensive hands-on experience caring for kids of all ages. Additionally, I've had the privilege of working as a school bus driver, which has given me even more experience in ensuring the safety, well-being, and happiness of children in my care. From keeping toddlers entertained, helping with homework for school-aged kids, to ensuring teens stay on track, I've seen it all! My experience as a bus driver has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to manage diverse groups of kids while keeping a calm and positive environment. I'm passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging space where children can grow and learn. With me, your children will be in caring and reliable hands. I'd love the opportunity to bring my experience and warmth to your family! Feel free to reach out with any questions.
Rachel arrived at our house on time, was very respectful of our house rules, got along great with the kids, and was flexible when our date ran fifteen minutes later than we anticipated. I would definitely hire her again!
