Anna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm a happily married dog mom and love kids and care taking in general. I grew up in MN and got my master's in business at the U of M. I love the outdoors and often spend my free time hiking or gardening. I also enjoy intellectual and creative pursuits, including playing the violin and guitar, singing, dancing, reading, sewing, crocheting, and much more. I encourage curiosity and play while maintaining a safe environment, which I believe is vital for a caregiver. I have experience watching infants during church services and spent several years working with toddlers creating and teaching world religion classes. I also regularly care for school aged kids of friends and family. Senior care is also in my purview as I cared for my mother during her time in hospice. Please reach out if you think we would be a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you! CPR & First Aid Certified in 2026 for infants/children/adults.

Booked by 1 family in Brooklyn Park, MN

Hi! My name is Cailey and I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable babysitter with 4+ years of childcare experience working in a daycare setting. I enjoy working with children and creating a safe, fun, and welcoming environment where they can learn, play, and feel comfortable. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m experienced with caring for children of different ages (and multiples) and helping with daily routines, meals, activities, and bedtime. I’m patient, and dependable, and I always prioritize the safety and well-being of the children in my care!

“Cailey was absolutely wonderful! She was comfortable with our son right away, and because of her childcare experience, we really didn’t have to give much direction at all. Our son had such a great time with her, and we felt completely at ease leaving him in her care. We’d love to have her back and any family would be lucky to work with Cailey! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
