Cyntia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Cyntia! I'm a Fair Haven mom of two — a fun 2-year-old boy and a newborn baby — looking for babysitting in your home, with my little ones tagging along. My son loves playmates his age, and my baby mostly sleeps and feeds. I'm also a local pet groomer, so I'm used to responsibility, patience, and keeping little ones safe and happy. Happy to serve meals and snacks you've left prepared, and I bring food for my own little ones. Available Saturdays and Sundays, and I can also do weekdays for a couple of hours at a time.

Rebeca $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a Professional Nanny with over 15 years experience taking care of children of all ages, including multiple siblings at the same time. I take care of all children as if they were my own. I am nurturing, caring, and will always have their best interest in mind. I always look forward to meeting with parents to truly customize the experience, after all, no 2 kids are the same! Discussions include food preferences, personal habits, restrictions, etc. Maintaining a safe and positive environment is very important to me. I enjoy preparing various activities, playing games, and meal preparation. I can be available to help with laundry, grocery shopping, assist your children with their studies as well as assist in pick ups and drop offs as needed. I know it's not easy to leave your children alone with someone new, but rest assured, they will be in great, comforting, and patient hands. I look forward to meeting with you and your family soon!

Danelle $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a loving mother of two boys and a devoted wife, and I know firsthand how hard it can be to leave your children in someone else’s care. As a stay-at-home mom, I understand the trust parents place in a caregiver and take that responsibility to heart. I am patient, nurturing, and committed to creating a safe, happy, and supportive environment for children. I also love to cook and enjoy preparing warm, home-cooked meals that bring comfort and joy to the whole family.
