Sheryl $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Sheryl, and I have a natural love for caring for children. While I don’t have formal babysitting experience, I’ve spent plenty of time looking after my younger cousins, helping them with homework, organizing fun activities, and keeping them safe and happy. I’m patient, dependable, and great at creating a positive, engaging environment for kids. I’m eager to bring the same care and dedication to other families, ensuring children feel loved and supported while parents have peace of mind.

Mia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mia and I am 20 years old. I just earned my Associates Degree and am looking to continue my education in nursing. I am offering childcare and light household services. I currently work part time as a nursing assistant at Baptist Hospital in the postpartum unit, where I get to work with newborns and their families every day. I also have experience working at a summer camp with children ages 3–6, which I absolutely loved! I’m very patient, caring, and easygoing, and I love keeping kids entertained with fun activities, games, and crafts while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m responsible and attentive, but I also want kids to feel like they can be themselves and have fun with me. I’d love to help make things easier for your family and make sure your little ones are taken care of.

"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!"
