Hello! I live in the Linden Hills neighborhood (South Minneapolis) and I’m looking to be a nanny/babysitter/ personal assistant also a house and dog/cat sitter. I have many references and have done this for many years . I would like to work in my neighborhood or no more than 30 minutes drive. I am CPR certified and I have taken additional classes with the state of Minnesota to also be a substitute preschool teacher. I am looking to work part time, flexible or occasional along with house and animal sitting for a period of time as you are away from home. Please consider me! I have many referrals. Thank you, Twyla
“Twyla has been an AMAZING for our family. She has supported with a sick baby home during the weekday, and a sick baby + toddler together. The kids gravitate to her, she’s great with them, and brings a positive, can-do, calm attitude. She’s also been so helpful in our home - tidying, dishes, and laundry during nap times. Very grateful we found her and plan to continue to us her regularly!”

Hello! My name is Brigid and I have been working with Kids for over 5 years! I have my Bachelor’s of Science in Education and two teaching licenses in Prek- 12th grade education! I am a full time nanny currently but am always looking for some part time/occasional nannying or babysitting. I have over 5 years of experience with children as young as newborns to early high-school! Kids are my life and bring me so much joy. I have two younger siblings, (shown in my profile picture) 8 and 10, one with autism, that I have taken care of since they were born. Due to a difficult parental situation, I had lots of experience early on for caring for them as infants and toddlers, and let that carry me into working professionally with children since I was 15. I have great child care references I can provide and many past nanny/sitter familes I am still on great terms with and even visit for fun when I am back in my hometown! I am interested in all types of jobs, so feel free to reach out about anything! I make it a priority to make any space a child spends with me a safe one, and I encourage families of any and all backgrounds to not be shy to reach out, as I have grown up with a very mixed one myself:) Thank you for your consideration of me.

Hello! My name is Randi. I’m originally from California, and lived in San Francisco for about 9 years before moving to Minneapolis this past March! I work full time in Human Resources for a tech company, but I’m remote 2 days a week and have a fairly flexible schedule for evening jobs.

I love working with children, and part time childcare work is the perfect fit for someone like me who needs a more flexible work schedule!
