Ashley $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ashley, I’m going into my junior year of college next semester, and I’m 20 years old. I’m looking to babysit/nanny/dog sit this summer! I dog sat and occasionally baby sat for a family my first year of college but I have never formally had a job as a babysitter- however I’ve had jobs and done volunteering that have dealt with kids. I worked in a uniform clothing store last year. The clothing store had uniforms for many private schools and I would help children pick out their uniforms. I volunteered for 6 years every summer for vacation bible school and was in charge of a group of kids each week. I can drive kids (I have a car), am very good at arts and crafts, can tutor, and I’m athletic so I like outdoor activities. I am very patient, caring, kind, respectful, and easy to work with. I have a lot of free time this summer and would love to help babysit/nanny children!

I am 46 years old and have over 20 years of experience working with children from infancy through age 17. My background includes serving as a Prevention Specialist, where I taught Interpersonal Cognitive Problem Solving (ICPS) skills to preschoolers ages 3 and 4. I also hold a bachelor's degree in human services and am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, nurturing environment. Whether you need an occasional date-night sitter, girls night out, run some errands or a safe and reliable support for your family, I am committed to providing quality, dependable, and compassionate care. Additionally, I am certified in child and infant First Aid and CPR giving parents an extra peace of mind. I would love to connect with you and learn how I can support your family's childcare needs.

Hello! I am currently studying for medical school and am working as a scribe full-time, but am looking for some extra work hours. I recently graduated from USF with a Master’s degree in public health. I have my BS in psychology/pre-med from Northwestern University. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old when I received my safe sitter license. I am certified in CPR as a certified nursing assistant and lifeguard. I have watched children of all ages and abilities, and really value all that I have learned from them. Outside of watching children, I have skills in communication, cooking, tutoring, and cleaning.
