Roxanne $20 per hour for 1 child

Flexible college student with multiple years of caregiving experience. I have gained most of my experience babysitting for family members. I now volunteer with children regularly, both shadowing pediatric therapy and as an overnight camp counselor for foster youth. I am able to quickly and calmly navigate a range of situations, my main goal always being safety, growth, and fun. Open to both one-time and regularly occurring positions. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Maria $20 per hour for 1 child

Iam a responsible and caring babysitter who has a background in performing arts, meaning I have a strong knack for creativity as well as lots of patience for activities. It is quite easy for me to engage with kids in terms of storytelling or imaginative play. I would have course prioritize the safety of the kids, but ensure that we are still expressing ourselves in a creative manner. I have been babysitting for 5 years, and I have babysat anywhere from infant children, to children in elementary school. I have been teaching and helping children with homework since then as well. I enjoyed babysitting because eventually when I have a more professional job, I want to be a child psychologist as I love working with children and providing whatever support I can.

"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!"

"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
