Booked by 1 family in Paradise Valley, AZ

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!

Steve $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Steve! I live in the Moon Valley area of Phoenix, and I love dogs. My wife and I have said that we'd love to be able to make a living just being able to have fun with dogs everyday, though for normal life that generally isn't practical! :) Well, these days I have a chance to offer some doggy love for the furry hour legs when their people need someone to take care of them for a time. I've had dogs from a young age, from experiencing litters of puppies, to training just one, to helping them through later part of life, and to the point of having to say goodbye to more than one of my friends before. I've always related to dogs and most dogs like and trust me very readily. I'll be happy to make sure your pups, both young and old, are happy and well cared for and happy while you're not there to do it yourself.

Megan $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am a certified school counselor and work at a small title 1 school in downtown Phoenix. I am going on my 6th year at the school and work with ages ranging from preschool-8th grade. In my teenage and college years, I also babysat and nannied for multiple families in those age ranges. I love children and am always excited for hands on learning, playtime, crafts, and as a counselors love to focus on the social emotional aspect as well. I like to live a healthy and active lifestyle and tend to stay off technology and screens for as much as I can. I am really looking to connect with families that need more weekend care or care during school breaks! I am very loyal, responsible, and passionate about my career and would love to support more children and families in need!

I've been babysitting and nannying for 7 years now. I'm currently in school part time and aside from my morning nannying job, my schedule is relatively free. I have experience caring for up to 4 young kids at a time, babies over 4 months old, twins as well as children with special needs. In addition to caring for your child(ren), I will gladly do light chore work, can take your kids to and from activities, and cook. I've also assisted in online learning myself, and can help your child with their school day or offer tutoring services while they're completing their school work. My special skills include conflict management, and having done extensive research on emotional development, I consider myself to be very knowledgeable in that area of care. I will treat your kids like my own, and will be responsible, communicative and diligent while caring for your child.

Lily is so sweet. My son loves playing with her on the days I've been able to book her. I will definitely hire her again.
