Booked by 1 family in American Fork, UT

Hi my name is Hercy! I have experience taking care of kids between 6 months old to 10 years old. I took care of 3 beautiful girls for almost 3 years. Also I used to take care of a baby boy for 6 months, he was 5 months old then. I can take them to different activities. Also I love dogs so if you have one I will feel comfortable and happy as well around them. I speak Spanish so I can teach them some words if you want me to do it!

Our boys loved hanging out with Hercy! They talked about all the fun things they did, from playing with toys to building things to going sledding. Hercy was also flexible when we were running late. Would definitely recommend Hercy!

I was born and raised in Utah! I go to the university of Utah and I go to school Monday Wednesday and Friday just from 2-4. I used to nannie a little boy from 4 months till he was a year and a half. But I have little cousins that I used to baby sit all the time! I love babies and toddlers. I will have fun with the kids and do activities with them. I am reliable, I have a pretty open availability besides when I have school, I am patient, and my top priority is making sure the kids are safe and well taken care of:). I have lots of experience in taking care of pets! I was a dog/cat sitter for a lot of people for a couple years and i loved it! I also have a dog of my own that I take care of. I really enjoy cleaning as well. And would be happy to help with any chores or running errands that need to be done.

I spent this past summer being a live in nanny for a NYC family with children of 3 month old boy, 6 year old boy, and 9 year old girl. Responsibilities included: overnight 24/7 care for the 3 month old baby, cooking meals for the family, keep the baby on a schedule with feedings and naps, laundry, driving the kids to sports camps, taking the kids on the bus to school in the city, playing games with the kid to keep them active and off technology, help as a family assistant for the parents. Before that I had a consistent family I nannied for at least 3 days a week during college. I started with the family when the little boy was 2 and the little girl was 3 months old. I was with them until she was 4 and he was 6. I kept them engaged in activities and learning as well as feedings and naps while the mom worked from home. It was so sad to say goodbye to them, they were like family to me. I also babysat for other families for date nights or weekend days. Ages ranges from 3 months to 10 years old. Before that I babysat at least once to three times a week during high school. I looked after children anywhere from one month old to 13 year olds. Responsibilities included: overnight stays, pick ups from school, drives to sport practices, chaperone playdates, cook meals, help with homework, take after dogs, drive family's car to activities, drop off and pickup from airport, and any household activities.

Mariah $16 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m finishing up my last year of high school, with a part time job on the side. I’m 18 years old, and have been licensed for 2 years. I’m happily looking for more experience working with kids. My range age-wise in children is currently 3-8 years old, but I am also willing to watch older than that. Right now I occasionally babysit another family with 3 children, so I have skills with dealing than more than one child. I’m happy to engage and have fun with the children I currently sit! I’d love to put my full attention in participating in activities, from doing schoolwork, going out, teaching them new skills, to playing any game they come up with. I can adapt to different personalities and rules as well. If there’s any other requests you’d like met, I’ll make sure it gets completed!
