Hi! My name is Logan. I have had many years of experience babysitting children from newborn to ages 10+. I not only enjoy being around kids, but I also put a lot of effort into giving them appropriate support. My main goal is to provide a safe environment for your child (both physically and emotionally). I work full time during the day but have flexible availability over the weekend, in the morning (before 8:45am) and in the evenings (after 5:00pm). I look forward to hearing from you!

Tiera $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Tiera and I have experience working with kids for 5+ years. My first job at 15 is where it all started when I worked the summer in the youth care program for one of the Minneapolis parks and Recreation. Following up I worked at Great wolf lodge in the water park area from 16-17 years old and even though that’s not hands on with kids I still count it because it was my responsibility to help keep it safe for them. Once I turned 18 and graduated high-school I began working for the new horizon company working with the ages as young as 6 weeks up to the age of 5yrs ,but, main group with the ages of 18 months- 3yrs. I am currently in process of getting my CDA which is an early education associates. I am licensed certified in First aid & cpr. I believe in the conscious discipline method and that’s how I am with the children in my care. I’m also skilled in the creative curriculum area so I’m comfortable enough to say I CAN help your child meet there milestones. I appreciate you for taking the time to read my intro and if you made it this far I would like to end with my personality and why i am here for you. I feel I have a bubbly goofy and open but could be quite quiet . I’m very understanding and patient and empathetic. Im also very creative so im always got an activity planned. Im here for you and your child to just be an extra hand you count on. Im here to help!

Maddie $16 per hour for 1 child

Welcome to my profile! Over the years, I have gained invaluable experience in various fields, including tutoring for three years and working with people with disabilities for four years. As a former community mental health worker, I deeply value the importance of providing the best care possible. I believe that every child deserves to be nurtured in an environment that encourages their growth and self-expression. With my energetic nature and creativity, I love coming up with engaging games and activities to keep those I work with engaged. I am in my final year of completing my undergraduate in youth studies. I am committed to understanding the unique needs and challenges young people face. I am excited to share my knowledge and support their journey. In pursuit of furthering my impact, I am attending a master program next summer, working towards becoming a high school social studies teacher. If you're seeking a babysitter who embodies compassion, enthusiasm, and a dedication to creating a safe and inclusive space, please reach out!
