Experience: 10 yrs
With over 10 years of experience working with children and teens, I bring a warm, engaging, and educational approach to childcare. My experience working with diverse families has shaped my flexible, culturally aware approach to caregiving. With a degree in Psychology, my understanding of child development, learning, and social-emotional growth is fundamental to my services. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where children feel seen, respected, and excited to learn. Whether we're reading stories, practicing a new language, exploring outdoors, or getting creative, I believe learning should feel natural and woven into everyday life. I'm trilingual in English, Somali, and Spanish, and my background as an English and Spanish language educator allows me to naturally incorporate learning into everyday activities. I'm also available for tutoring, homework help, and language enrichment, making me a great fit for families seeking dependable childcare and academic support.
Zuhra watched my niece and nephew (8 & 11) over the summer, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly patient, attentive, caring, and intentional with them, and it was clear how comfortable and safe they felt around her. One of the things that impressed me most was how naturally she incorporated learning into their time together. Their Spanish improved so much over the summer, they honestly picked it up better than I ever did! She made learning feel fun rather than like a lesson, and they were always excited to tell me the new words and phrases they had learned. I also noticed such a positive change in how they interacted with each other. It was really sweet to see them become more caring, patient, and loving toward one another would. I recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for someone who will not only take great care of their children, but also positively contribute to their growth.
