Bella $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi I'm Bella and I'm currently a freshman at FIU. I am offering childcare, dog and house sitting. I love spending time with children and have been babysitting since I was 13. I am the second oldest of six kids and grew up around infants and toddlers long before I began babysitting. I am allergic to cats but would love to work with dogs or hypoallergenic cats.

Isabella $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Isabella, I’m 21 years old, and I plan to attend Florida International University in January to study Management Information Systems (MIS). I offer childcare, pet care, and household help. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15, although childcare has been part of my life for much longer. My mom has been a full-time nanny my whole life, and growing up I often went with her to work, so I learned a lot about caring for children from an early age. At 15, I spent a summer caring for two boys, ages 6 and 8, preparing meals, taking them to the pool, and keeping them entertained throughout the day. At 17, I babysat a 4-year-old girl and planned activities such as crafts, outdoor time, and walks with her dog. Since 2022, I worked consistently with one family for about four years. It was originally my mom’s full time job but once she moved I took over. I started by walking their dog several times a week and also babysat their son, who was 10 when I began. Over time, the family trusted me with much more, including pet sitting, house sitting while they traveled, running errands, making returns, and helping with anything they needed while they were away. I continued helping their family until this year, and I really value the long-term relationships and trust I’m able to build with the families I work with. I’m also very comfortable with animals of all sizes. I have experience with Saint Bernards and Golden Retrievers, as well as smaller pets, including a bunny. I’m a huge animal lover and have cats of my own. I’m responsible, dependable, caring, and comfortable taking initiative when needed. Whether you need someone to care for your children, pets, home, or help with everyday errands, I’d love the opportunity to become someone your family can rely on.

Melany $20 per hour for 1 child

Throughout middle and high school, I spent a lot of time volunteering to take care of kids, whether it was helping out at summer camps, after-school programs, or babysitting for family friends. I also work at a daycare. Those experiences sparked my passion for working with children and taught me how rewarding it can be to be a positive part of their lives. I’ve always made it a priority to create a safe, welcoming environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for, while also making sure they’re having fun—whether that means turning everyday tasks into games, coming up with creative activities, or just being someone they can laugh and talk with. I bring a bright, upbeat personality to everything I do, and I love being the kind of person kids can look up to and trust. For me, it’s not just about keeping kids safe and entertained—it’s about making them feel seen, valued, and excited to be themselves.

Isabella $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person with experience taking care of children and pets. I have a 14-year-old sister whom I have helped care for since she was a baby, so I’m comfortable with children and understand the importance of patience, attention, and responsibility. I also have a cat and two dogs of my own, and I absolutely love animals. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for pets, as well as keeping them safe and comfortable. I also serve in the Air Force, which has helped me develop strong discipline, responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail. I would love the opportunity to help families with their children, pets, or home and provide trustworthy and caring service.
