Reliable and responsible 18-year-old college student at Arizona State University available for part-time nanny and babysitting jobs. As the oldest of three, I’ve spent years helping care for my two younger siblings (now 12 and 9), so I’m comfortable with homework help, school routines, meals, and keeping kids entertained without constant screens. I’m punctual, patient, and easygoing, and I take safety seriously. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, rides to activities, and pet care as needed. Looking for occasional or part-time jobs that fit around my college schedule. References available.

I can cook for the childern following their personal diet restrictions. Follow medication schedule they may have. I help encourage the kids to keep things tidy while also cleaning after them. Watch behavior ques and try to help solve not desirable behavior. Time out time if needed and nap times. Sleep at a schedule time.
Hi! I’m Rachel! I am in my last semester studying Elementary Education at Arizona State University. I am currently student teaching in Kindergarten at a school in Paradise Valley and therefore trying to earn some money in evenings/weekends. I have been working with kiddos for many many years now! I have been a summer camp counselor, after school staff, dance class teacher for little ones, and many years of babysitting/nannying. I have worked alongside the ASU preschool psychology classroom as well for 90+ hours. I am CPR certified and have my Arizona State IVP Fingerprint Clearance card as well. I am more than happy to help with chores around the house, as well as help your kiddos with homework!
Hi I’m Skye! I am 18 years old and am ready for a job! It’s hard to find a job as a college student because I have not had a job in the past due to a busy schedule in high school and most jobs require past working experience. I would say I’m friendly and respectful and like to get the job done! I’m currently a student at Arizona State who is majoring in English but maybe child development in the future! I am looking to occasionally babysit only because I go back home to my home state for winter and summer break so keep that in mind! I think I want a job where I can pick up kids from school and watch them for a few hours or when parents want to go on a date night!
I have extensive experience caring for children from 2½ months to 17 years old through professional nannying, babysitting, tutoring, and working in both home and school environments. I earned my degree in Elementary Education with minors in Special Education and English as a Second Language (ESL), which has given me a strong understanding of child development and how to support children with a wide range of learning styles and abilities. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with children with and without disabilities, providing individualized care, academic support, and creating fun, structured environments where they can thrive. My experience includes classroom support, tutoring, homework help, planning engaging activities, preparing meals, maintaining routines, transporting children, and supervising outings and field trips. In addition to childcare, I have experience teaching swim lessons and coaching water polo, helping children build confidence, develop new skills, and stay active. I love spending time outdoors and enjoy taking kids on adventures like hikes, trips to the park, nature walks, and other activities that encourage curiosity, learning, and exploration. Families describe me as dependable, patient, energetic, and compassionate. I believe in creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel supported, valued, and encouraged to grow. My goal is to become a trusted part of your family’s team while providing exceptional care and giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are happy, safe, and well cared for.
