Sheila $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello there! My name is Sheila. I’m a middle-aged spinster auntie getting back into the babysitting game. I work a part-time remote job with very flexible hours and I’m looking for some equally flexible income on the side. Because of this, I’m not looking for part-time or full-time positions. But if you’ve got a date night, a day event, or a sick kid and need coverage, I’m your gal! I’m mature enough to handle difficult situations but silly enough to get down on the floor and play right alongside your kids. I’m an experienced storyteller, and I can whip up an interactive bedtime story on the spot. I have a shiny, red, reliable car to get me to your place and back and for school pick-ups as needed. Let me know what your needs are and let’s see how we can work together. :)

sophia $14 per hour for 1 child

Hey! I’m a 20 year old creative writing student at GSU. I have a younger sister (8 years younger) who taught me a lot about childcare, fun, and selflessness. I’ve babysat for my neighbors in the past and would like to also tutor. I’m vaccinated with Pfizer! In addition to babysitting and tutoring, I can house sit, help out with chores, cook, etc. Just ask me. I love reading, drawing, painting, anything creative. I also speak French fluently and can definitely help with homework. I’m a bit of a nerd at heart. I don’t currently have a car, though I do have a license.

"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!"
