Hannah $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi my name is Hannah! I have a lot of experience with babysitting and pet sitting. I currently work in Phoenix as a babysitter but I fly home this April and will be home until September so I wanted to use this app to find opportunities near me! I’m known to be very fun, caring, responsible, quick-witted, and flexible. I’ve been babysitting for the past 8 years (unless you count babysitting family) and absolutely love it! I’m currently studying at Grand Canyon University to become a teacher and I can’t wait to finish school and start my career. So excited to meet you and your little one(s)!

I’ve worked as an au pair, nanny, and provided after-school care, including homework help, school pick-ups/drop-offs, and engaging kids in fun, safe activities. I would describe my style as structured, calm, and fun. I enjoy creating routines, doing crafts, outdoor play, and helping children learn and grow. I’m comfortable with newborn care, diapers, meals, and bedtime routines, and I’m open to overnight and night nanny support.

Hi I’m Sara! I have a natural passion for helping others, which is why I find joy in babysitting. With multiple years of experience caring for children, I strive to provide more than just supervision—I aim to be a supportive mentor and a helping hand for your family. Whether it’s assisting with homework, preparing healthy meals, or engaging playtime, I am dedicated to making sure your children feel safe and happy. I love baby sitting because I get to hear all of the cute things kids say and watch them learn. I have over 10+ years of customer service experience and love to cook!
“Sara responded to our last minute posting, and did a great job taking care of our 5 year old, who requested that we have her come back. She was very professional, helpful, got all of our daughter's bedtime routine done, and conversed well with her. We would recommend her to other parents, and plan to ask her to come take care of our daughter again. ”
