During the last few years of my life, I have babysat my own family and worked at an elementary school. I worked with grade levels k-3. I worked as a teachers assistant on my days that I didn’t have work. I worked and still do work at chilis. Since I love working with kids and taking care of kids inside and outside of school I want to put my experience to work and help out those who need it. I love taking care of any family friends children or my cousins. Anything you need I can be there for you😊.

Hi! I’m Amy. I’ve been babysitting kids between the ages of 8-15, mostly my younger cousins, so I’m very comfortable keeping them engaged, safe, and supported. I’m looking for a part-time babysitting role with a kind, respectful family. I’m dependable, patient, and easy to communicate with. If you’re looking for someone warm, responsible, and good with kids of all ages I’d love to connect.

I have over six years of experience providing dependable childcare, including with newborns, children ages 2–8, and kids with special needs. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology, am working toward my doctorate, and have completed coursework in Early Child Development. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, which ensures safety in my care. Families describe me as patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I love engaging children in outdoor play, sports, games, and puzzles that encourage both fun and learning. I’m comfortable caring for up to three children, and I always follow household rules and communicate clearly with parents. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with cooking, meal prep, and light housekeeping. My goal is to support children’s growth while bringing peace of mind to families.

Hi , I'm 28 years old. I am patient, responsible, friendly, funny and honest person. I was an au pair in Florida for 2 years, I was take-caring 4 children at the same time, they gave me the best experience of my life. I have experience with newborns, toddlers and kids (6-7yo). I like to play with them, paint, draw, go to walk with them, crafts, etc. I have a clean driving record. I'm pet lover. No smoking. I can help you with kid's laundry, putting them in naps, prepare their food, clean up their toys and everything about your kid. My native language is Spanish, so if you are comfortable I can teach your kid a little bit Spanish, in the same way I learn from them, I'm still improving my English .
