Sidney $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I have been taking care of folks my whole life. I began with helping my aunt through her cancer treatments. As an adult, I've worked as a Nanny teaching French, a babysitter for multiple children and most notably Adult Foster Care & Nursing Homes. I'm passionate about helping kids in particular. I love to see them grow and learn about the world, a child's curiosity is unmatched! I'm well versed in a variety of abilities and disabilities, as well as kids just being kids. I'd be honored to help your family <3

I’m a responsible and caring sitter who enjoys working with kids and creating a fun, safe environment. I have experience babysitting family members and teaching children ages 5–9 at my church, so I’m very comfortable keeping kids engaged and active. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting jobs, such as date nights or weekend help, and I’m happy to assist with things like meals, light cleanup, and bedtime routines.

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.
