Will Little Rock
$15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Will and I'm a librarian here in town and a student at UALR. I'm offering evening and weekend childcare, senior care and petcare! I have experience working with a wide variety of ages, and have worked as a summer camp counselor for ages 6-16. I can cook, clean, run errands and drive to or pick up from classes depending on my availability. I am also comfortable working with seniors, and am happy to take them on excursions or just chit chat about their lives. I am happy to work with pets, but am allergic to cats (and horses).

Alexis Little Rock
$13 per hour for 1 child

I’m Alexis but everyone calls me Lexi, I’ve been a certified babysitter since I was 13, I’m 18 now. I’ve been CPR certified, and am working on my infant certification. I have a basic understanding of Spanish, and German. I do immense research on child psychology, and behavior, and multiple types of parenting techniques. I’ve worked with children of all ages infants to preteens. Even handle multiple at once, which I actually found entertaining. I’m good with emotional outbursts, meltdowns and find myself to be a calm, grounded person. I love running, and outdoor fun, as well as board games and arts. Like singing, drawing, and dancing. I graduated early, so I am very good at tutoring, and homework. I’m an excellent cook, and fairly good baker. I also have a spotless driving record. I believe that structure and rules are important, but a fair amount of play is also necessary for childhood development and growth.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 34 families in Little Rock, AR

Hello! My name is Zara. I am 27yrs old and a professional dancer. I moved to NYC from the SF Bay Area as a freelance dancer, and now pivoting from my dance career into administrative roles. While I’m job searching, I'd love to take care of your precious kiddos. I am available for occasional sittings. I graduated from Dominican University of California in 2020 with a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree in dance through Alonzo King LINES Ballet in San Francisco. Throughout my time in college and after graduating, I sat for various families in the Bay Area. I’ve now acquired 7 years of experience. I am originally from Columbia, Maryland, and I am one of 9 children. I grew up with many pets, including cats, guinea pigs, a bunny and bearded dragon, so I am very comfortable with any of your pets. I started with occasional sittings, then transitioned to part-time work as a nanny for a little 5-year old girl in San Francisco Fall 2019. Following, I worked in San Rafael Sep 2020-Feb 2021 as a nanny part-time for 5yr and 3yr old boys. Afterwards, I worked as a live-in nanny in Kailua, HI Feb-June 2021. During my time in Hawaii, I looked after 9yr and 3yr old sisters full-time, as well as occasional sittings for the other children who lived on our lane. Ages range from 6 months-9yr. I now continue occasional sittings. I have created some long-lasting connections with the families I've sat for. It is a joy to get to know the kids, and I make it a priority to address the children's needs first, to serve as a role model and be a positive influence, and have fun! Please don’t hesitate to reach out, I am happy to provide any references and speak with you and your family.
