Lily $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Lily! I go to Wellesley College and am on the tennis team. I'm from Minneapolis, MN and home for the summer (looking for work)! I have a lot of experience with childcare and tutoring. I have been babysitting for 5 years and have been online tutoring kids for a year. I also had the honor of going to Guatemala to tutor kids English in 2022. I am outgoing, hardworking, responsible, and fun. I love being around kids: I love thinking on my feet and coming up with engaging activities. I also am experienced in taking care of dogs as I have raised puppies and dogs growing up.

Lisa $15 per hour for 1 child

My name is Lisa and I'm approaching my senior year at UMD. I study biochemistry and potentially want to work in the chemistry and/or neuroscience field. When I was in high school, I worked at Color Me Mine and I had to run many children's birthday parties there. I'd like more experience in babysitting and working with kids because it would open my perspective about working with different age groups related to my future career. I've had cats and dogs throughout my life so I'm comfortable with pets. I've gotten into baking and I know how to make basic meals. I also have a basic life support (BLS) certification and planning to get my advanced life support (ALS) certification soon. If you need someone to step in during a night out or to help out during a busy schedule, let me know!

Leticia $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi - my name is Leticia and I’m from Brazil. I’m currently studying business at MCTC. I already have a full-job but they’re leaving for spring break (03/24-03/28) and I am looking for child care, pet care, or household services for the time period. I love babysitting and has been my main job for the last five years - and my secondary job since I was 18. From infants to teenagers - including twins and multiple kids. I have had many types of responsibilities during this time - driving to/from activities, meal prepping, helping with homework, crafts, etc. I’ve also worked as household assistant, helping with errands, light cleaning, some cooking. I love to work with dogs and cats and I'm super comfortable around them. Hope to hear from you soon! Thanks :)

Charlotte $18 per hour for 1 child

I've been a childcare provider for over seven years, motivated by my passion for fostering children's growth and development and my positive experiences in previous babysitting roles. I believe in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for children to learn, play, and grow. As a patient, calm, creative, and friendly caregiver, I enjoy playing various games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that enhance their learning. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I'm comfortable caring for up to four children simultaneously and am available to provide references upon request. I hold CPR and First Aid certifications, and I follow the parents' preferred communication method to keep them informed about their child's day or any issues that may arise. I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and learning more about your childcare needs.
