Meet Marhyah

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi future family! My name is Marhyah. I am sure you will come across several profiles of individuals I am sure can provide the basics of your need. With me I come with a little more. I am not just a caretaker to your family but a role model, a mentor, an extension of you when you are not there. I genuinely care about every single child and their family whether it is meeting them at a public park or getting paid for it. I am a certified Recreational Therapist in which it is second nature to assess the wholistic needs of each child and set goals to help them become the best versions of themselves. Having 2 elementary age children, 3 years of elementary school teaching experience, and being involved in youth events I know how to deescalate emotional outburst and speak to children as people. I give a Read more balance of autonomy and supervision, education and fun, and always align a child's age to what milestones they should have mastered. I run a business called “Need -A- Break” where I do just as it sounds- provide a break! From child care, elder care, or simply for a breath of fresh air! My aim is to not just watch your child but to teach safe social interaction skills, teamwork amongst the community, and of course to have FUN! Contact me to start a conversation and to see if I am a good fit for you and your needs.
