Genesis $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello everyone! my name is Genesis and I'm 32 years old. I have lived in the United Estates for three years and I have worked for five years as a babysitter. I also have 4 wonderful nephews and I took care of them since they were babies. I am a kind and sweet person. I love music, yoga and being in nature. I am currently doing my CPR and first aid certification and also I have medical background because I have a bachelor’s degree in Histotechnology ( I graduated in my home country) so I have an strong sense of responsibility and safety. Working with children is a very rewarding job for me because I have an opportunity to be creative and joyful. I like to have a good communication with the parents and I always follow the rules of the house. I'm currently improving my English, but I'm putting all my effort :) feel free to contact me with any question. thank you!!!

Makenna $16 per hour for 1 child

I have formal hands-on experience working with young children as a Student teacher at the Little Lions Preschool early childhood elective program, where I assisted teachers with daily routines, supervised activities, and kept the space organized and safe. I’ve also spent multiple summers volunteering for Vacation Bible School leading group activities. My personal babysitting experience comes from my young cousins, ranging from infants to middle schoolers.

Booked by 38 families in Lake Monroe, FL

I'm a mother of two children myself but they are all grown up one of them is 35and the other one is 27 I love to be around small children and having fun with them by making them smile I’m also a grandma to a 8 old granddaughter and a 6year old granddaughter who I adore very much.

“Denise was very communicative, and even shared her location with us when she was en route to meet us at our hotel. She listened to our instructions and followed them exactly. Usually our daughter freaks out when we leave her with a new sitter, but the second time Denise watch her, she didn’t cry or fuss at all at drop-off, which is always a great sign. ”

Lisa $21 per hour for 1 child

I’m a warm, dependable, and experienced caregiver with a lifelong passion for working with children and supporting families. I grew up on Long Island, New York, with my parents and brother, and from a young age I was very active in dance, gymnastics, skiing, ice skating, and soccer, which I continued through college. Staying active and enjoying the outdoors are still a big part of my life today. For the past 24+ years, I’ve been a devoted stay-at-home mother raising three children while also volunteering at school, coaching soccer, and assisting with other youth sports. We currently have two boys in college and an 11th-grade daughter attending Bishop Moore Catholic High School. I’ve been happily married for 27 years and truly value family, health, nutrition, sports, swimming, outdoor adventures, and creating a positive home environment. My childcare experience began around age 10 as a mother’s helper, and I worked closely with several families from ages 18–30. Caring for children has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely love spending time with little ones. I’m positive, easygoing, patient, consistent, and enjoy laughing, playing, crafting, baking, reading, and making everyday moments fun and engaging for kids. I also have personal experience parenting a high-functioning autistic son, now 24, which has given me added patience, understanding, flexibility, and compassion when supporting children with different personalities and needs. While I’m not overly focused on technology, I appreciate the ways it can be useful and prefer building real, meaningful connections with children and families. My goal is always to provide a safe, nurturing, active, and dependable environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for.

"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!"
