Hello! I am transplant to Utah and enjoyed babysitting as a hobby in DC before my move! I am very much so a people person I spend lots of time networking and performing on stage in front of hundreds of people. When it comes to kids they tend to love me because I am high energy, funny, creative, but also very responsible. While making sure kids have fun I also make sure they are in a safe environment and doing things that promote good behavior. For instance, playing games such as Simon Says, Follow the Leader, Obstacle Course, Reading. All those games are fun but they also learn problem solving. I also have plenty of experience babysitting and working with children. Since the age of 10 I started a mothers helper business with the moms in my neighborhood. As I got older I began to babysit children on my own between the ages of 1 to 10. Along with being a babysitter I also served as a camp counselor for four years teaching acting,singing and dancing to five and six year olds. So by the end of the night your kids may want to put a show on for you once I leave. I truly love spending time with children as they are the hope for a better society. Hopefully you see my application and you can tell that I am serious and ready for the job! Hope to hear from you soon. PLEASE NO DIRTY HOUSES! Please do not request a booking if time is under 3 hours and hourly compensation is less than 20 dollars. If their is not ample unrestricted or free parking. Parking compensation is requested. Best,

I look forward to meeting you and your family! I am a kindergarten teacher on summer break. Due to travel and other commitments over the summer, I am not available for a consistent babysitting schedule. I am looking for one-time babysitting opportunities for the months of June and July. I will not have any babysitting availability after July 31st. I moved to Salt Lake City from Vienna, VA in January 2020. As the oldest of seven children growing up, I have lots of experience with kids of all ages. I have current CPR and First Aid certification, valid through May 2028.

Jessica was very responsive, kind, and flexible to adjust her timings with us. We would book her again in a heartbeat!

I’m 59, a non smoker, CPR and first aid certified, plus I am a Mom myself. I started babysitting again about 5 years ago. I missed having children in my life, especially since my son doesn’t have children of his own. I am now a regular sitter for multiple families here in Salt Lake. I have been with some of them for several years. They would be happy to provide references. I love to color with children and do arts and crafts. I like all kinds of board games. If you need meal preparation, I'm an excellent cook. I have a Chihuahua of my own so I am animal friendly. I even have experience caring for bearded dragons!

Hi! I'm Claire & I've been a nanny for the last 20 years, working with 15 families & 24 kids between the ages of 8 weeks & 16 years. My favorite age to work with are toddlers-they're so curious & constantly learning! I strongly believe in teaching kids to express their feelings in healthy ways, while treating the others around them with kindness & respect. I'm enthusiastic about outdoor adventures, creative indoor activities, & learning through play! Pets are important members of families & I'm very animal friendly! However, I am allergic to cats & have a hard time working in homes especially with multiple cats &/or longhairs for extended periods.

Claire is a warm and caring nanny! She is dependable and reliable. She cared for my children starting when they were newborns and is still a trusted adult for my 18 year old. She's wonderful with kids of any age and very patient with kids who have high needs (like my neurodivergent youngest child).

Skilled in overnight care, live-in support, household management, meal preparation, and routines.

She will be an invaluable presence in any family’s life.
