Hi my name is Lexi and I am 25 years old. I just moved back to Scottsdale after being on the east coast for a year! I graduated from Arizona State University with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN, RN) in May 2023. That being said I am CPR/BLS certified and am a RN (Registered Nurse) with a year and a half experience working at a Level 1 Trauma Center in the Emergency Room and now working in a surgical setting at a Level 1 Trauma Center. I work 4 days a week M-F and am occasionally on-call for weekends and nights, so I have occasional availability! I grew up with two younger siblings and have been watching over them from a young age. I have had several babysitting jobs throughout the years and still continue to do it for my love of the job. I have experience watching ages ranging from 4 months-11 years old. I am a reliable, friendly, caring, and look forward to meeting your kids! :) Please feel free to message me with any questions!

I am a native Spanish speaker and understand very little English, which makes my services a great fit for families who prefer to communicate in Spanish. With over 10 years of experience caring for children, I’ve developed strong qualities such as patience, reliability, and attention to detail. However, I now focus exclusively on household cleaning and related tasks — I no longer provide childcare services. Over time, I discovered that household cleaning is truly my specialty. I genuinely enjoy it, and it motivates me to bring out the best in every home I care for. I’m extremely detail-oriented and thrive on keeping spaces spotless and organized. My strong sense of order means I notice the small things others might overlook, and I take pride in going above and beyond to maintain a fresh, clean, and welcoming environment. Families I’ve worked with appreciate not only my reliability and efficiency, but also my very high standards of cleanliness. Household work is where I excel most, and I’m motivated by the satisfaction of creating a home that feels comfortable, peaceful, and well cared for. ----------------------------------- Hablo español y entiendo muy poco inglés, por lo que las familias que se sienten cómodas con el español encuentran en mis servicios una excelente opción. Tengo más de 10 años de experiencia cuidando niños, lo que me ha hecho una persona paciente, responsable y atenta. Con el tiempo descubrí que la limpieza del hogar es realmente mi especialidad. Me gusta mucho, me motiva y me da satisfacción poder sacar lo mejor de cada casa en la que trabajo. Soy extremadamente detallista y me gusta mantener los espacios impecables y organizados. Mi fuerte sentido del orden me permite notar hasta las cosas más pequeñas que otros pueden pasar por alto, y me enorgullece ir más allá para asegurar que el ambiente sea fresco, limpio y acogedor. Las familias con las que he trabajado valoran no solo mi confiabilidad y eficiencia, sino también mis altos estándares de limpieza. El trabajo en el hogar es donde más destaco, y me motiva la satisfacción de crear un espacio cómodo, tranquilo y bien cuidado.

Timely, kind, responsive, great work!

I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary and Special Education, and a Master’s in Instructional Design. I've been a first-grade teacher for the past 8 years, and I’m passionate about working with children and animals. I began babysitting as a teenager and continued through college. Today, I’m a trusted caregiver for the children of close friends, and I fully understand the importance of creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment. Outside of teaching, I volunteer with local rescues and foster dogs, providing them with a loving temporary home. I'm professional, friendly, and reliable—and committed to caring for every child or animal as if they were my own.

Michelle is excellent with children. She is compassionate, kind and enthusiastic. Her caring personality, positive attitude, and reliability make her a good choice for a babysitter.

Hi! My name is Kaley, and I'm originally from Omaha, Nebraska. I'm currently seeking babysitting opportunities as I explore my next career move. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders from the University of Nebraska Lincoln. Childcare has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember, I started babysitting and nannying when I was just 12 years old. Over the years, I've gained extensive experience working with children of all ages, including roles at daycares throughout high school and college and as a summer care provider for elementary-aged kids. I'm dependable, enthusiastic, and ready to help however I can. Whether you need childcare, meal prep, light housekeeping, or help running errands, I'm happy to lend a hand. I'd love the chance to support your family and make your day a little easier!

Kaley was extremely helpful and my daughter had a great time with her. She is professional, reliable and I hope to have her back again! Thank you!
