About Simin

Experience: 3 yrs

For the past year, I've cared for three children - ages 1, 4, and 13 - handling daily needs across all ages: cooking, keeping an organized home, homework help, errands, and driving to activities. I'm a safe driver with a clean license and reliable vehicle. I hold a master's degree and have 15 years' experience as a substitute teacher and math tutor, supporting both learning and daily care. I also coach chess, building kids' focus and problem-solving skills while having fun. I raised my own child and ran my household independently until he left for college, giving hands-on understanding of what it takes to keep a family running smoothly. I'm dependable, organized, and love helping children grow. Happy to provide a reference from my most recent family, and I stay in close communication however works best for you - text, calls, email, or app. I'd love to bring that same care to your family.

Simin was prompt, knowledgeable, and helpful. I appreciate her quick replies and her responsible nature. If you are looking for someone who understands the trials and tribulations of parenting herself and shares her wisdom from raising her own son to an accomplished adult, I would highly recommend Simin.
