Zaira $17 per hour for 1 child

Hiii! I grew up in a divorced household with mostly just my dad around. I was left unattended a lot with my older sister and I always felt unsafe. Now as an older teenager, I just want to provide that safety and comfort of having someone there to children. I really want to be a teacher for younger kids, that’s why I try to babysit to get as much experience as possible. I love to do hands on interactive activities and I also love to be outside. I can also cook, bake, and clean!!

Adrianna $20 per hour for 1 child

I'm passionate about nurturing and caring for children, a passion that grew over my 6 years of volunteering, nannying and babysitting in childcare. The excitement on the children's faces and the trust their parents had in me solidified my desire to make a positive impact on the lives of children and their families. I am CPR certified & First Aid trained. I also have my fingerprint card! With 6 years of experience caring for children of various ages, I'm adept at creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for them to thrive. My patient and calm demeanor, coupled with my creativity and imagination, allows me to connect with children effortlessly. I believe in open communication and building strong relationships with parents, ensuring that I follow their preferred communication method and collaborate closely with them to address any concerns or issues that may arise. Whether it's engaging in outdoor activities, crafts, or exploring games that promote learning, I strive to make playtime both enjoyable and enriching for the children in my care.

Booked by 3 families in Peoria, AZ

Hi! My name is Keilynn and I just graduated with my bachelors of science at Grand Canyon University and currently working for the university as an assistant resident director. I got my degree in justice studies with a minor in forensic psychology and biblical studies. I grew up in a household that took in foster children so I have always been like a big sister of taking care of the kids and bonding with them. I often helped them with homework, learning to tie shoes, feeding, teaching them simple motor skills, driving them to their extracurricular after school or to just spend the day with them, etc. I’ve handled 13 days old- 13 year old children both at home and as a job position when I was a program instructor for my own 5th and 6th grade classroom. I truly enjoyed this position so much and it made me desire to work with kids even more. I love hikes, church, scenery, art, and more. Can’t wait to work with you and your children and feel free to ask any questions you desire!!

Keilynn was absolutely wonderful! Great communication, so kind and flexible, especially when we needed to extend our timing. Most importantly, my girls absolutely loved her! We would definitely have her babysit again and highly recommend her! ❤️
