Jeamy $16 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I'm Jeamy! I'm a dedicated mom and dog lover with a deep passion for caring for others. Originally from the Dominican Republic, I have experience looking after my own daughter and pets, and I truly enjoy providing attentive, loving care. Currently, I work as a front desk supervisor, but I'm looking to do something extra—something I love and comes naturally to me: taking care of children and pets. When you trust me with your loved ones, they become part of my family too! What I Offer: Child Care: I have experience with kids of all ages and love engaging them in fun and educational activities like reading, arts and crafts, singing, dancing, and helping with homework. Pet Care: As a devoted dog mom of two, I understand the importance of proper care, whether it’s walking, feeding, administering medication, or just giving them plenty of love and playtime. Senior Companionship: While I don’t have formal experience in senior care, I’m eager to learn and provide companionship and support. If you're looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver for your child, pet, or loved one, I’d be happy to help!

$15 per hour for 1 child
Hello my name is Geminiaya, I have worked with kids of all ages. I was a summer camp counselor for kids in 5-8 grade and I also babysit my little cousin who just turned 5. I love taking care of children because I always get to see a smile on their face.
“I couldn't have asked for a better babysitter! Geminiaya was absolutely wonderful with my sweet angel. She was kind, patient, and kept my little one entertained the whole time. From fun activities to making sure bedtime went smoothly, everything was handled perfectly. My child couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had! I felt completely at ease knowing that he was in such great hands. I will definitely be booking Geminiaya again. Highly recommend!”
