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.
Hi there! My name is Jamie, and I have a passion for working one on one with children ages 0-5. I graduated with my Bachelor’s in Family and Human Development in 2025, and have three years combined professional experience working in child care settings.
Hello! My name is Bekah and I am a NICU nurse. My journey to nursing is rooted in my desire to care for others and integrate my background in sociology with hands-on work. I grew up caring for my siblings and cousins, always wanting to take part in things like diaper changes and bottle feeding, even when I was a bit too young. I am instinctively attuned to the needs of others which lends itself to my future career and to caregiving in general. I specialize in over night newborn care and being a “mother’s helper.” I can assist with feeding, lactation, sleep, and other newborn needs!
“Reliable and good with kiddos. Would recommend”
Hi, I’m Fadumo I am excited to start babysitting toddlers and teens are my specialty and bring my strong background in childcare to families in need of reliable support. I love driving and walking to parks and having long car drives. I also enjoy braiding hair and styling, it’s so peaceful to just bond over hair. I have a fear of cats but I have an even bigger fears of dogs. Growing up in a large family with many siblings, I gained extensive hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I consistently took on responsibilities such as supervising daily routines, helping with homework, and creating engaging activities that promote both learning and fun. This experience has not only strengthened my ability to manage multiple children at once, but also taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and clear communication. I am confident that my nurturing personality, dependability, and proven childcare experience make me an excellent fit for families seeking a trustworthy caregiver.
I have been babysitting for over 7 years working with children as young as 6 months up to age 10. I aspire to be a teacher and have received teacher training, so I know how to make learning fun and keep kids engaged. I love to sew and do arts and crafts, read, and play outdoors. I have a car for easy commutes and am very flexible to meet your childcare needs.
