Samantha $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Samantha, and I’ve been working with children and families for 15+ years through babysitting, tutoring, youth programs, and personalized family care. I currently support 38 families and love creating a fun, safe, positive environment where kids can learn, laugh, and feel encouraged. I enjoy arts & crafts, reading, outdoor play, creative activities, and helping children express themselves in engaging ways. Alongside childcare, I also help protect families as a licensed field underwriter agent, which has strengthened my passion for supporting families in meaningful ways. I’m also happy to assist with light housekeeping, organization, and pet care when needed. Families describe me as warm, dependable, patient, energetic, and nurturing. I truly love what I do and look forward to supporting your family!

Shaniya $10 per hour for 1 child

I was a junior volunteer in the children's ministry at my church for 2 years when I was in high school. I'm currently a student at Jacksonville University where I also volunteered at the on-campus daycare center. I'm a Dance major so I'm very active and in shape. Being able to teach young children to dance would be a plus!

JANAEA $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Palmetto, GA

Hello! My name is Janaea, but I go by Ms. Jaye. I am a CPR-certified childcare professional with over 20 years of experience working with children from infancy through high school. I am currently a K–12 substitute teacher in Fayette County, Georgia, and previously worked in Los Angeles, California as a preschool and kindergarten teacher, as well as a K–12 substitute. I am known for being warm, nurturing, and dependable, with a natural ability to balance fun, structure, and learning. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and encouraged — and I bring that mindset into every home I work in. Whether it’s imaginative play, homework support, reading time, or calm routines before bed, I meet children where they are while maintaining clear boundaries and gentle discipline. Parents often appreciate my calm presence, strong communication, and educator’s eye for development and behavior. I look forward to supporting your family with attentive, trustworthy care.

Hi! My name is Keila! I am offering part-time care for children as well as tutoring services. I am Educated, Fun, and Totally Love Children! This has been my field of expertise for over 10 years! It's who I am! Children are my vibe! They keep me youthful! I have been working with children in private and public, and church settings my entire life!

She was early and very engaging. My two year-old daughter loved her. She even brought her own toys to play with my daughter who is active and full of energy. She was very professional and made it very comforting to leave my toddler in her care ,

Andrele 1 review
$18 per hour for 1 child

My name is Kelly and I'm currently a Special Education teacher and athletic coach. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 12 years old. My responsibilities have included crafts, tutoring, and athletic coaching skills. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I’m a great game partner, reading partner and a great listener! I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs.

Andrele's an amazing sitter & person in general! To make things even better she's a SPED teacher and was able to give me some wonderful tips of support for my son & worked extremely well with my son. She's a blessing to these kids & parents. Andrele's kind, patient, has a great personality and very flexible. She was even willing to travel a couple hours away for me to sit with my son, but my event was canceled last minute for whatever reason that I'm still clueless & upset about. Nevertheless I'd definitely use her again & again & would recommend her for your next sitter.
