Hi! A little about me- I'm 30, teach high school, and am very laid back and like to have fun! My general availability will be the same as the Hawaii DOE schedule. My husband (who is an elementary school vice principal) and I moved to Hawaii about 8 years ago from Chicago, but I am originally from Texas. I love Hawaii and everything that it has to offer, and I love being outside. I am willing to travel pretty much anywhere on this tiny island, but would prefer to stay close to town for repeat jobs. I don't have military base access. As far as specific info about babysitting/nannying, I have experience with premature infants, toddlers and adolescents, as well as children with severe allergies and special needs. I have a Bachelor's of Fine Arts with emphasis in art education and love to do art with kids! I am totally Read more open and willing to learn what works best for you & your children! :) Thank you!

I have been meaning to log in for ages and give Chela a review. She watched my daughter from age 2 thru 4 while I was at classes in the evening, date night, and other times while we lived in Navy housing - we moved off island this past summer. Chela was my go-to sitter, and my daughter absolutely loved her. You will not be disappointed if you hire Chela!!! She would take my daughter to the playground in the afternoon, and I frequently got comments from neighbors about how great she was (these are fellow military spouses who would have also spoken up if they saw something of concern - a positive review from these folks was like gold). We miss you so much Chela - Miss L still mentions you, and has the picture you gave her of her name hanging outside her bedroom in our new house.

My son and I were visiting Waikiki while my husband was on military business. We wanted to have a couple date nights while we were there, because it was during my husband's deployment and I wouldn't see him for a while after our visit. Chela was on time, very friendly and confident in her skills as a caregiver; you could tell this wasn't her first rodeo! She was awesome with my son and he even woke up when she left to wave "bye bye" to her down the hallway. I could tell that he had a great time with her. I recommend Chela whole heartedly if you live or are visiting the Waikiki area.

Chela was very responsive to our job request and was great with our four children. She was flexible with our plans as we ended up leaving later than expected, and so friendly we chatted with her for a while after we got back. As she says in her profile, she doesn't have base access but the guest pass process is quick and shouldn't dissuade military families from hiring her.

Chela has watched my 4 yr old boy on several occations. She shows him great interest in his play and encourages him which he loves. She has been great about getting him to bed for the nights we have been out late. Recently, she was available quite often and at last minute which helped alot. I recommend Chela!

Chela was very warm and kind with my son. She was friendly and arrived on time ready to work. I felt comfortable leaving my son in her care.
