Rose $20 per hour for 1 child

I absolutely love working with children! I have been babysitting for six years now and have worked with all ages. I am more than willing to keep them entertained, especially when screens are off limits. I love anything creative, and I am also good at cooking if the little ones need a meal. I also love pets and have a dog of my own.

Hi, my name is Allison and I'm currently working at a local bakery. I'm offering childcare and pet care, with light household services up for discussion. I have been watching children from newborn to elementary school age since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included meal prep, bedtime routines, outside and park play, assisting with organizing kid's rooms and toys, reading time, and general playtime. I am happy to work with families with dogs or cats.

“Allison is great to work with! We have hired her multiple times. She is friendly and kind, working hard to engage the kids. ”

Hello! My name is Lisa and I am 26 years old. I have been working on and off as a nanny and house manager since I graduated high school about 8 years ago. I have had a lot of experience being around children since I was young because my mother had an at-home daycare for 15 years. I helped along side my mom with many of the kids ranging in age from 10 weeks old to about 12 years old. Along with that I also have babysat for many families for the past 12 years. I would say most of my experience is with toddlers but I've also watched after kids up to the age of 15. I have done extended overnight stays(up to 2 weeks), vacationing with families and have experience driving to and from school, friends houses, or sports practice. I’ve also helped families with groceries, meal prep, household chores, doctors appointments and other miscellaneous errands. I have had my license for 10 years now and have a clean record. No accidents or tickets. I have my own car and insurance. Some activities I enjoy doing with kids are reading books, playing at parks or just outside, coloring, helping with homework, playing with Legos or just toys in general, and doing arts and crafts. Before the pandemic, I also worked at a children's gymnastics gym and play-place for a few months before the location I worked at sadly had to close down due to COVID. While there I learned some developmental activities for the kids I specialized with. The age group I focused on while there ranged in age from 14 weeks up to about 4 years old. I’m also fully vaccinated and adult and infant CPR and first aid certified.

Tae $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm an experienced and caring childcare provider with over 3 years of babysitting experience working with multiple families. I also have experience working as a toddler teacher and teaching children in Taiwan, which has helped me develop strong communication, patience, and classroom management skills. I genuinely enjoy working with children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, explore, and grow. I love keeping children engaged through creative activities, games, reading, and age-appropriate learning experiences. I'm dependable, responsible, patient, and attentive to each child's individual needs. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in someone's care, and I always strive to build that trust with both parents and children. I look forward to meeting your family and providing quality, attentive care!
