priya $30 per hour for 1 child
Hi there! I’m a registered nurse, aunt, and a proud dog mom! I began my healthcare career as a CNA in a nursing home while in nursing school, where I learned the importance of patience, compassion, and hands-on care. After becoming an RN, I worked with psychiatric patients and also completed training as a school nurse, giving me valuable experience caring for children and managing their health needs in a supportive & structured setting. Currently, I work at a medical spa, but nurturing others will always be close to my heart. Whether it’s soothing your baby to sleep, sparking imagination through stories, helping with homework, exploring the outdoors, or sharing laughter over something silly. I’m passionate about creating a safe, uplifting space where kids feel loved, confident, and free to grow. I’m also passionate about shaping the future generation and enjoy guiding kids through challenges with patience and empathy. I’d be honored to bring warmth, reliability, and genuine care into your home. 💕

Elizabeth $24 per hour for 1 child
Hi everyone! My name is Elizabeth, and I am a warm, reliable, and creative caregiver with over 10 years of babysitting experience working with children of all ages. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame ('24) with a BA in History and Political Science, and I just recently completed a Master of Philosophy in History from the University of Cambridge in the UK this past summer! I started babysitting at the age of 12 and have since developed a strong ability to connect with kids, keep them engaged, and create a safe, positive environment. In addition to babysitting, I spent nearly 5 years as a gymnastics coach for children ranging from preschool through 8th grade. Being a coach enabled me to build patience, adaptability, and a knack for balancing fun with structure, whether that’s leading active play, helping with homework, or managing bedtime routines. I love planning creative and engaging activities like arts and crafts, outdoor games, and imaginative play, and I always aim to tailor my approach to each child’s personality and interests. I am more than happy to support educational activities as well. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, engaging care for your children!
