Alison 2 reviews
$15 per hour for 1 child

I have a good experience with child care I have been a babysitter for 2 years. and above all because I love working with children, it is something that I am passionate about. I have been with needy children as a volunteer and I have done everything with love. I think that love and commitment to children is a reason that makes me a good babysitter . I would also like to mention a little about my responsibilities I have taken care of children from 1 years old to 12 years old. It is also important to mention that I am a responsible girl and that I know how to manage my emotions. Most people say that I am very loving and that everything I do is with love. I want you to know that I am a good babysitter because your children will always be well taken care of by me and I really know the value of family , I would like them to learn a lot from you. I am available every weekend at any time if you contact me beforehand and during the week from 11-2

“Alison is an exceptional caregiver. She demonstrates excellent responsiveness when planning and punctuality. She proactively asked me about my son‘s interest. With this information, she engaged my son and his favorite activities rather than Screen Time. Alison is highly intelligent and takes pride and her work. It is clear that she loves kids. My son thoroughly enjoyed his time with her and I highly recommend her to anyone.”

Katherine $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a responsible and caring nanny. Spanish is my native language, and I understand English very well. I am currently improving my English speaking skills to become more fluent. I am patient, reliable, and committed to my work. I enjoy planning fun and educational activities for children, including creative and hands-on play, not only technology-based activities. I also love pets and feel comfortable in homes with animals. I like to follow parents instructions and routines carefully, while also being proactive and suggesting positive ideas and activities for the kids. I enjoy seeing them learning, grow and the capacity to discover new things. I like to support their creativity providing a safe, caring and positive environment, where they can feel happy, confident and comfortable. One thing families should know about me is that I am respectful and I can be serious when needed, but I am also very sweet, caring, and enjoy connecting with children.

Karen $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi – My name is Karen, and I’m currently on a gap year from the University of Michigan. I’m using this time to work and save up before returning to finish my degree. I love working with kids and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’ve helped my aunt with her nanny job and also worked at a home daycare, caring for children of different ages. I’ve also cared for my nieces, so I’m used to keeping things fun, patient, and organized. I can cook, help with light cleaning, and assist with household tasks. I don’t drive, but I’m reliable, always on time, and prefer families nearby or accessible by public transit. I’m also comfortable working with dogs and enjoy creating a warm, positive environment for families.

Ruby $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my names Ruby, I used to babysit a lot in high school before I moved and thought it was so fun! I mostly worked with two kids aged 2 and 4, and babysat them for almost a year. I’m a first year college student so babysitting is a great way for me to make money while still having time to focus on school work. I’m also an artist although I’m still working towards making a living off that. But if your kids enjoy to draw I’ll probably end up teaching them a thing or two too!
