About Caruxa

Experience: 6 yrs

I'm a dedicated childcare provider with over six years of experience supporting children in their everyday routines. I truly enjoy helping kids feel safe, cared for, and comfortable, especially during after-school hours when they need a balance of structure and downtime. I focus on creating a calm, organized, and nurturing environment where children can unwind after school, complete homework with support, and enjoy meaningful play. I'm very comfortable reinforcing household rules and routines while keeping things positive and consistent. I prioritize open communication with parents and believe in regular check-ins so families feel informed and confident. I bring a patient, dependable, and warm presence into the home and always aim to give children a positive, enjoyable after-school experience.

Catuxa was the most responsible, firm, kind wonderful babysitter. She supported the kids with all of their after school and summer activities, and helped us transition from coming home from work and jumping into carting kids to their activities, continuing the homework/practice or dinner and chill. We love her enthusiasm, her maturity and her warmth with the children, while remaining an authority and guiding them to be the good people she and we know them to be. She is wonderful. The best you will find.
