Rayah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Rayah and I just graduated from nursing school. I grew up babysitting various ages for family friends and neighbors. I am a pretty outgoing person who loves to be outside! I love creating fun, safe, and engaging activities—whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or helping with homework I have two dogs of my own so I am very comfortable around pets. I’m also certified in CPR/First Aid and comfortable with things like meal prep, bedtime routines, and light household tasks. Families can count on me to be responsible, dependable, and caring. Babysitting is something I truly enjoy because I love being a positive part of a child’s day. I’d be excited to meet your family and help make things a little easier for you!
