Hi my name is Alex, I have been working at a daycare for the past 2 years and I absolutely love working with kids of all ages. I love the one on one time with the kids the most and that is why I am looking for a change of pace. I absolutely love the great outdoors and doing creative things to help further the children’s development. I’ve been wanting to spend more one on one time with a few kids at a time so that I can really connect with them and watch them grow as little humans.

Hi! My name is Teresa. I'm looking to take on sitter jobs this summer. I can help with: • Child care • Pet care • Household help Ages: I'm happy to babysit children ages 4 through the teen years. I also have my own car and can help with school pick-ups, drop-offs, sports practices, tutoring, errands, or other activities if needed. Grace Period: I understand that delays happen. If you arrive later than the agreed-upon time, I'll round your return time down to the previous half hour. For example, if we agree on 6:30 PM and you arrive at 6:59 PM, I'll still only charge through 6:30 PM, giving you up to a 29-minute grace period for traffic or other unexpected delays. I'm happy to work with families nearby. Feel free to message me with any questions or if you'd like to see if we'd be a good fit!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
