As a mother of four sons, with two still at home, I understand the patience, love, and dedication it takes to care for children of all ages. Raising my boys has been the most rewarding experience of my life, and I truly enjoy watching children grow, learn, and gain confidence. I am a dependable, caring, and nurturing caregiver who creates a safe, fun, and supportive environment. Whether it's helping with homework, planning engaging activities, driving children to school, playdates, or sporting events, or simply being a positive and reliable presence, I'm happy to support your family's needs. I believe every child deserves encouragement, kindness, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with them. I look forward to building a trusting relationship with your family and providing the same level of care I have always given my own children.

Shelly $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m a proud mother of two grown daughters and a loving grandmother to four wonderful grandchildren, ages 8 months to 5 years. Caring for little ones has always been a big part of my life — I regularly babysit my grand kids in the evenings and handle everything from story time to bedtime with ease and patience. I truly enjoy creating a calm, safe, and nurturing environment where children feel happy and secure. With years of hands-on experience caring for infants and toddlers, I understand the importance of routines, gentle guidance, and dependable care. Whether it’s dinner, playtime, or bedtime, I’m comfortable managing multiple children and keeping things running smoothly. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and family-oriented to look after your little ones as if they were my own, I’d love to help.
