Booked by 1 family in Carefree, AZ

Hi my name is Victoria and I am an ASU graduate who is also currently an ASU employee. I graduated with honors and bachelors of science in Biology and Psychology with an emphasis in Neurobiology. After focusing on my studies for so long I am taking this time to enjoy life by traveling, spending time with friends and family, and exploring new hobbies. In addition to my current part-time job, I would like to earn some other money on the side through helping families watch their most precious loved ones. I have plenty of previous experience taking care of children! I used to be the neighborhood babysitter when I was in junior high and high school, taking care of my next door neighbor's two children (starting at ages 3 and 7), and my other neighbor's daughter (aged 6-10). In addition, I was a volunteer and staff member at the local rec center for 6 years. There, I was in charge of running sports and arts and crafts activities for children aged 5-12. They also had me work our cool kids club where I watched children aged 2-5 while their parents worked out or took a trip to the library. I also have an abundance of experience in watching peoples' pets. I have taken care of the furry friends of neighbors, friends, and family for as long as I can remember! I have grown up with family dogs and know the amount of responsibility it takes to make sure they are loved and living an enriched life. Currently, I take care of my roommate's dog on a regular basis, and she frequently has dogs over for overnight stays, where I assist as well. In college, I was a research assistant in the Canine Science Collaboratory, where we ran behavioral studies on dogs. Through that experience, I can effectively determine a dog's temperament and any special needs they may need to feel comfortable. Though most of my experience is with dogs, I also feel comfortable with cats and other pets and love them just as much! I am just an animal girl at heart. I am willing to take on any cleaning or household tasks that families may need help with as well. I just love staying busy!

I am a mother of a three year old. I am 25 years young but have a handful of years of experience taking care of children from 1-17. I’ve gained this experience taking care of/ babysitting my three year old, and 3 younger siblings. My siblings range from 11-21, and I have younger cousins I helped raise as well. I am able to relate with kids because my experience with my siblings have proven to be positive, and growing. I am caring, understanding, and know how to cook amazing food if need be!

Maya Phoenix
$18 per hour for 1 child

I’ve always had a passion for working with kids and hope to become a pediatric occupational therapist. I started babysitting at 13 and have cared for children of all ages through babysitting, nannying, and volunteering in church nurseries. For the past two years, I’ve been working as a nanny and currently care for a 2-year-old and an 8-month-old, which has given me valuable experience with routines, developmental milestones, and infant/toddler care. Families describe me as compassionate, patient, creative, and dependable. I love engaging children in fun and enriching activities, while also providing a safe, nurturing environment. As a full-time student and nanny, I mainly pick up extra babysitting shifts on weekends and occasional evenings, so parents can enjoy reliable help when they need it most. It would be an honor to support your family and care for your little ones!

Hi! My name is McKenzi, and I’m a high school senior offering childcare and household services!
