Jade $17 per hour for 1 child

Hello everyone! My name is Jade. I have a passion for working with children and pets and would love to be able to offer my services to you and your family. I graduated in spring of 2025 with my Bachelors Degree in Psychology and currently starting my masters in Social Work in the fall. I am currently in a position where I work with adults with autism. I really enjoy helping people in general and knew from a very young age that was always something I wanted to do. I have experience with all ages of children ranging from infant all the way to school age. I worked with school age children (Prek-5th grade) for about 3/4 years, through a summer camp program. We did lots of fun stuff including, taking the children on field trips, pool days, and other activities. I would love to be able to do all of that again if that is what your child enjoys! On the flip side, I also have experience with infants and toddlers. Anywhere from just a few months old to 3 year olds. I worked at a daycare part time throughout college and loved it. And if you are wanting pet care, I also have lots of experience specifically with dogs. I have experience with lots of types of dogs. Anywhere from high energy, to anxious pups, or just calm couch potatoes. I have two dobermans, a yorkie, and two black mouth curr mix rescue pups!

Sarahgrace $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sarahgrace, and I have about 4 years of experience babysitting, house sitting, and dog sitting. I recently graduated college with my Associate of Science and am now attending cosmetology school! I’m CPR certified and have references available. I’ve always loved working with kids and hope to have a family of my own one day! I’m currently hoping to find a family who needs help with school drop-offs/pick-ups or afternoon care. I’m also happy to occasionally help with date nights, weekends, or as-needed childcare. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be someone you can trust and rely on! 💕
