$22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Sophia, a Social Work student with hands-on experience caring for children from infants to teens, including current work as an after-school program teacher and previous experience in daycare settings. I’m CPR certified, extremely reliable, and have a warm, patient, and emotionally supportive approach with children of all ages. I’ve also assisted with companion care for individuals with developmental delays, providing medication reminders, errands, and uplifting daily support. I’m a huge animal lover with professional experience in dog daycare environments, pet sitting, dog walking, and caring for a wide range of pets — including cats, dogs, small animals, and reptiles. Additionally, I enjoy organization, household maintenance, event planning, and helping families stay on track with daily routines. I can also help as a personal assistant. I’m flexible, friendly, and genuinely love making life easier, happier, and more comfortable for the people and families I work with.

Hi I am Shelly! I am 19 years old. I have experience with kids ages 5-12. I was a camp counselor for 3 years. I am able to cook and clean. I am also able to drive the kids to wherever they need to go. I grew up babysitting my younger cousins which grew my love for taking care of kids!

Devon Oak Park
$27 per hour for 1 child

I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to hang out with your kiddos for occasional nights out, adult weekends away, or busy days to get errands done. I spent almost 5 years teaching toddlers and preschoolers, ages 18-months to five-years-old, before becoming a full-time nanny for a four-month-old and a five-year-old. When the infant was old enough to attend school, I stepped into an assistant director role at a preschool in my hometown, which is my current full time position. I am CPR and first aid trained, mandated reporter certified, and I obtained a teaching certificate along with 30 child development units, and a degree in social and behavioral sciences. Early childhood education is my passion and I would love the opportunity to help your young ones on their social and emotional development and academic growth!
