About Dorcas

Experience: 7 yrs

Nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's a genuine passion. My seven years of experience caring for children aged newborn to 11 have solidified my commitment to fostering their growth and development. I am a certified teacher with a college degree, and I hold current First Aid Training and CPR Training certifications. I enjoy engaging children with outdoor activities, board games, and educational games. I am patient, creative, and friendly. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and always prioritize open communication with you, using your preferred method. Beyond childcare, I'm happy to help with cooking, carpooling, and light housekeeping. Knowing I can make a positive impact on a child's life brings me immense joy, and I would love to bring that joy to your family.

Dorcas is very nice and polite. She came to help when our son’s daycare was closed due to weather. We walked through our son’s routine quickly before work and she was able to do them well accordingly. She even helped with some housework during our son’s nap time. We really like her and would definitely hire her again next time.
