Booked by 1 family in Tempe, AZ
Hi there! My name is Hannah, and I’ve been nannying on and off since high school (I’m 28 now) and my most recent nanny position wrapped up last year. I’ve also spent several years caring for infants and toddlers at my local church. My siblings have five kids ranging from 2 to 9, so I’ve always been surrounded by little ones! I’d describe myself as caring, fun, and creative. I love coming up with activities that spark imagination and curiosity. I’m also adventurous and enjoy spending time outdoors, whether that’s exploring a park, doing crafts outside, or going on little adventures. At the same time, I’m responsible, timely, and dependable - qualities I know parents value. I truly enjoy helping kids learn, laugh, and grow, and I’d be so happy to care for yours!
“Hannah was an incredible help over the past few weeks, and we could not have been happier with her support. She was reliable, thoughtful, and consistently brought a high level of attention to detail to everything she handled. She made our day-to-day much smoother. Her communication was excellent and she approached every task with professionalism and care. We truly appreciated her help and would highly recommend her!!!”

Hi, my name is Serena! I am currently a student at Arizona State University. I am pursuing a degree in Tourism Development and Management. Throughout my upbringing, I have frequently babysat friends and family’s children. I have also taught as a swim instructor for Lifetime Fitness for over two years. I have an updated CPR, AED, and First Aid certification. I am passionate about children because I am able to positively contribute to an environment where they can grow. I understand the importance of strong communication in order to develop safe yet fun experiences for the whole family. I look forward to discussing ways I can be of help!
Autumn $19 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Autumn and I offer childcare, cleaning, and household services. I have a structured yet easy going/patient personality. I have been taking care of kids (of all ages) since I was 16 and have a professional medical background. I also provide household assistance, such as cooking, cleaning, running errands and will happily work with any pets. :)
Martha $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Martha. I’m 46, I have been working with children professionally since I was 15, and have experience as a preschool teacher, autism therapist, school aide, and more. I’m CPR and First Aid certified along with several other credentials. I come prepared with activities, toys, and games! If this is your first time leaving your child, I understand how difficult that can be. I have experience supporting families through separation anxiety. I will comfort your child, validate their feelings, and try to help them work through it. I also prioritize keeping parents at ease—I’m happy to send updates, texts, and photos throughout our time together. I currently have a day job that I love, so I’m looking for part-time or occasional work. I’m also fully certified for respite care. Let's connect!
