Emily $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi I’m Emily and I’m a mom of 2 children and a dog. Before I became a mom I babysat children for over 10 years. I have also been a nanny in the past and worked at a daycare for several years. I love children and animals. I have a dog and I love taking care of other people’s dogs and cats. I treat other people’s pets as my own. Same goes for children! I’m happy to babysit for an occasional date night or come pet sit for you while you are away!

My name is Kaia and I’ve been responsible for taking care of and looking after children in various capacities. Whether it be my baby cousins, the neighborhood toddler, youth camps, or VBS I’ve been able to keep kids entertained and orderly. I’m good at arts and crafts, reading in different voices, creating dance routines, and playing pretend. Additionally, I have a French bulldog that has required a number of medical needs and attention. For 8+ years I did commercial cleaning services.
