Reheal 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m passionate about ensuring children are well cared for, and I work at a nonprofit dedicated to helping families experiencing homelessness. In my day job, the team and I teach classes to families and work with children of all ages while supporting parents. This has deepened my commitment to helping families and children thrive. As a babysitter, I create a safe and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I believe families are the pillars of the community, and I’m excited to help your little ones feel happy, supported, and confident!

Reheal and I became friends when we worked together in the social service field. She is someone I have trusted to babysit my 2 year old daughter with the past, as she is great with children, kind, and responsible. Can’t wait to have her babysit again soon!
