Daejon $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! We're a babysitting couple dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children. We offer more than just supervision—we create a structured, daycare-inspired experience right in your home. Our activities may include: 🎨 Arts and crafts 📚 Story and reading time 🧩 Educational games and learning activities 🎵 Music and movement 🧸 Free play and imaginative play 😴 Nap and quiet time routines 🍎 Snack and meal assistance 🌳 Outdoor play (with parent permission) We believe children learn best through play, creativity, and positive interaction. With two caregivers present, your child receives extra attention, engagement, and supervision throughout the day. Our goal is to help children feel comfortable, happy, and excited while giving parents peace of mind. We look forward to caring for your little ones and creating a fun, enriching experience for every child! Please send your child with any preferred snacks, drinks, meals, diapers, wipes, formula, or comfort items they may need during their stay. We may occasionally provide simple snacks and treats, but parents are responsible for supplying their child's primary food and drink items. This helps us accommodate allergies, dietary restrictions, and personal preferences while ensuring every child has what they need throughout the day. 📸 Parent Updates We love keeping parents involved throughout the day! With parent permission, we take photos and videos of activities, crafts, learning time, outdoor play, and special moments to send directly to parents. This allows you to see what your child is doing, celebrate their accomplishments, and stay connected while you're away. Your child's safety and privacy are important to us. Photos and videos are shared only with the child's parent or guardian unless additional permission is given. We're a babysitting team with 5+ years of childcare experience and previous daycare assistant experience. We provide a safe, fun, and structured environment for children with crafts, story time, learning activities, music, free play, outdoor time, and naps. We believe in strong communication and keep parents updated throughout the day with photos and activity updates (with permission). Parents should provide snacks, meals, drinks, diapers, wipes, and any personal items their child may need. Our goal is to give every child a fun, caring, daycare-style experience with personalized attention from two dedicated caregivers.
