$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Castle Rock, MN

56 year old retired mother of 2 adult children and small dog looking for some extra cash and getting out. I’m very experienced neurotypical kids but also with autism/spectrum disorders, ADHD, anxiety and mental health challenges kids sometimes face. They don’t phase me! 20 years of meditation has cultivated a calm, loving and patient perspective in me. Modeling this helps deregulated kids and even seniors who can get easily overwhelmed by life. Let me help them and cover for you while you take care of errands, appointments or yourself! Looking forwards to meeting you!

“Lisa was a great calming presence and did great with our son, we would love to have her back again!”

Julianna $14 per hour for 1 child

Hiya! I'm currently in college for Elementary Education, and with my 6 years of experience babysitting, tutoring, and working in a Montessori daycare center, I know that childcare is where I am meant to be. I am certified in Adult, Child, and Infant CPR and First Aid. I have experience with all ages 4mo-15yrs, and while littles are my favorite, I love spending time with kids of all ages! I am happy to help care for pets, from cats to dogs to hamsters or fish, and adore cooking/meal prep. When I'm not working, I love to spend my time outdoors, whether that's swimming with my little sister, exploring the woods with friends, or biking to town, and I could also talk your ear off about ECE pedagogy! Can't wait to meet you (:

Leeya $17 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Castle Rock, MN

I’ve always had a natural affinity for children, having cared for my younger siblings and cousins since I was little. Being CPR certified gives me the confidence to ensure that every child feels safe and secure in my care. I love to create fun and engaging activities, whether it’s arts and crafts or imaginative games, while still maintaining a structured environment. I pride myself on being patient, attentive, and nurturing, always going the extra mile to help children feel comfortable and valued. My ability to connect with kids, combined with my experience and vigilant nature, has made me a trusted and beloved babysitter in my community.
