Hello, my name is Megan. As a caregiver I am fun, attentive, and patient. I treat children with kindness and the utmost respect. I love the outdoors, music, and literature. I am energetic and enjoy playing games and going on outdoor treks and adventures. I love to play guitar, piano, and sing. I know a lot of kids songs, including a few originals. I have a great deal of experience of caring for children, ages 6 months - 11 years old. I have earned 30+ units of early childhood education credits and am CPR and First aid certified. I get an extreme sense of joy spending time with children and seeing them grow into their own unique person. Positive reinforcement and providing opportunities to succeed are, I believe, the key to witness a child thrive. If you give me your email address I can send you my resume. Thank you for your time I look forward to connecting with you.
Hi! My name is Alexey and I am a 25 year old artist living in New Orleans. Caring for children has always been an interest of mine. I taught swim lessons to children back in my home town and I have also volunteered once a year at orphanages in underprivileged countries for the past 5 years. Pets also have a special place in my heart because I come from a family of farmers and grew up on a ranch. I have 2 kitties of my own now! In my grandparents final years I took them to appointments, took care of their home, and loved spending time with them and hearing their stories. I have a lot of free time so if you are in need of a care giver of any kind, at any time- I’m your girl! :)
I am an experienced pet sitter and house sitter living in the Seventh Ward of New Orleans. I primarily take care of dogs and cats, but I have also cared for guinea pigs, rabbits, and one very large Vietnamese pot belly pig. I am available for walks if nearby, but I primarily do overnights and stay with the animals in their own home while their people are away for work or vacation. I also take care of looking after the household while you are out of town.
“Katie is an absolute gem of a pet sitter! She recently cared for our two Pomeranians, Loki and Watson, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, healthy, and loved while we were away. From the moment we met Katie, her warmth and genuine love for animals were immediately clear. She took the time to understand their routines, quirks, and personalities, which put us completely at ease. Loki and Watson can be a bit high-maintenance, but Katie handled them like a pro. She sent us regular updates with photos and videos, and it was so comforting to see how happy and relaxed they were in her care. It’s clear she treated them like her own pets. When we returned, they were calm, content, and even better behaved—Katie’s care and attention made all the difference. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pets as much as you do, Katie is the one. Her reliability, kindness, and professionalism deserve more than five stars! We’ll definitely be booking her again!”
I have been babysitting for over 15 years and have experience working with children of all ages. I am CPR and Red Cross certified. I truly love working with kids, as I also have 6 years of experience as an elementary school teacher. I am caring, hard working, and patient. My goal is always to make sure children are well taken care of, but that they also grow, learn and have fun.
Hi! My name is Cate, and I am currently in my first year of law school. I’ve been babysitting, tutoring, and working as a camp counselor for over ten years. I babysat regularly during college in Baton Rouge and wanted to continue babysitting while I am in New Orleans. I love working with children, so please consider me for your next babysitting job!
“We are from out of town, and needed a babysitter for one evening when we attended an adults-only event. Cate was perfect! She did a video call with us so we could get to know her. She gave us her cell phone number so we could keep in touch with her and confirm the babysitting job in the days leading up to it. She arrived on time, and was gracious and lovely with my 9yo son. While we were gone, she ordered a pizza for the two of them, and sent occasional photos of my son so I could see how he was doing. My son had a great time with her. And Cate also made it super convenient by accepting payment via Venmo. We recommend Cate completely.”

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
"Hannah was awesome. Went above & beyond to help me with a last minute emergency. She was really sweet & great with my 16mo old. Highly recommend!!"
