Sage $18 per hour for 1 child

I'm an outgoing, energetic, friendly person who loves children! I'm an outdoors kind of girl, I love sports and playing outside as well as spending my time crafting, and reading. I'm happy to help with any household chores, errands, travel, cleaning and more! I've always worked with kids. I started working with an after school care program and loved it. From there I have worked with various family in my area with children ranging from 9 months to 12 years old, so I have a well rounded experience in child care. I am not only fun, but pride myself in being responsible and reliable, I'm able to provide a supervised, safe, and stable environment for your little ones!

Ashley 1 review
$17 per hour for 1 child

I am currently a junior at Michigan State University studying psychology with a minor in human behavior and social services. I have had numerous jobs working with kids including being an elementary school kids club assistant, lifeguard, babysitter, and research assistant for a research project that teaches healthy eating and physical activity to middle schoolers. I’m honest, dependable, hard-working, and I love kids.

Ashley is an exceptional individual with a warm and personable nature, making her an outstanding choice for those in search of a reliable babysitter. Her invaluable advice, unwavering support, and extensive background in child care set her apart from the rest. Ashley's ability to brighten kids' days is truly commendable. I wholeheartedly endorse Ashley as a babysitter—she's a stellar choice, earning a 100/10 recommendation!

Amara $15 per hour for 1 child

Hey you :) My name is Amara and I have recently moved back to the US after working abroad for 2 years. Professionally, I am a Mechanical Engineer, but as I am considering a life/career change, I am temporarily looking for part time work. I am an aunt to 4 boys and 2 grand nephews, a cat mom and have had a lot of experience over the years caring for children and different pets (cats, dogs, hamsters, even a bearded dragon!). I have cared for children within my family as well as for non family members. (infants, toddlers, young children, 10+) I am a great home cook (one of my passions is food/cooking). I also have about 5 years of experience with math tutoring and general educational guidance/coaching (mostly for grades 6 through college, but willing to tutor lower grades as well.) I am very creative and love crafting as well (art, sewing, crochet, etc) I am a big DIYer I would love to connect and discuss how I can help you or your family!

Gabriella $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Gabriella - Brie for short. I am a Junior at Michigan State University double majoring in International Relations and Supply Chain Management. I am from the Washington DC suburbs and am here for school. I offer childcare, pet services, and household services. At age 12 I began mother's helping in my neighborhood, advancing to babysitting and petsitting at 14, by 16 I added housesitting, driving children to and from school and activities, and tutoring to my services. I have both house sit and pet sit overnight, I always encourage families to hire a live-in pet sitter while gone rather than a day walker or boarding so your pet is used to them and has a routine in a safe and familiar place. I love sports, reading, walking when the weather is nice, games and cards, and am generally a chatty person. I have been described as warm and bubbly, while also being able to adapt to a child's temperament and mood needs. I do ask a lot of clarifying questions because I never want to overstep your role as a parent or pet parent, so open and clear communication is a must for me.
