Hi there! I’m a dependable and nurturing caregiver with years of hands-on experience across childcare, pet care, and home support. I’ve helped raise my younger siblings and cousins from a young age and have babysat for families throughout Canton during high school and middle school. I’m especially experienced with toddlers and kids (ages 2–12), including those with autism and ADHD — my own little brother and cousins have given me firsthand insight and patience in neurodiverse care. I’ve studied psychology and sociology in school, so I understand not only how to care, but why children need the right kind of attention and emotional support at every stage. Parents have called me mature beyond my years, with a natural ability to make kids feel safe and heard. I’m currently an intern at a real estate agency and on track to receive my Michigan license this year — a path that’s helped sharpen my professionalism and organization, while still allowing me the flexibility to do what I love: caregiving. As for pets — I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my current shih tzu who’s been with me over 10 years. I’m also no stranger to cleaning; I’ve maintained large family homes (like my dad’s in Ypsilanti), helped my aunts around their houses, and take pride in keeping a tidy, welcoming space. Whether you’re looking for a sitter, pet companion, or just an extra set of reliable hands — I’ve got you covered. I show up with care, calm, and a whole lot of heart.
Hi — my name is Rhyan and I have a background in biology, with a degree from North Carolina Central University. I’m currently working toward a career in healthcare, so I have a strong science background along with patience and attention to detail that comes from working with people and families. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age kids since I was a young teenager. I’m comfortable managing daily routines — feeding, naps, playtime, and keeping things calm and safe whether it’s one kid or a few.
Hi. My name is Kenzie and I will be attending Michigan State University in the Fall majoring in Biology. I am offering occasional babysitting for work and/or date nights. I love being a babysitter and have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 13 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from various activities, crafts, and helping with homework after school. I am currently babysit for a family with multiple children where one of my responsibilities is to drive one of the children to dance weekly, where I am also an Assistant Teacher.
I am a full-time registered nurse, looking for extra work in the evenings during weekdays with a little more flexibility on weekends. I have a strong background in caring for children and elderly. I am an extremely kind and compassionate caregiver who takes pride in the successful outcome of my patients. I am a mother of four adult children and also have many years in pediatric care, as well. I am looking to find a family who has strong values in the care of their loved ones and is looking for compassionate and thorough care that meets the needs of the families I work for. As a nurse, I am experienced in all age groups and have worked in a variety of nursing settings. I also am a very strong animal lover, who believe that pets our family and would care for years as if they were my own. Please reach out if you are interested in learning more about me.
Hi my name is Patty I'm a tutor in the Birmingham/Bloomfield Hills MI area. I have a graduate degree from Michigan State University in Special Education with an endorsement from the state of Michigan in learning disabilities. I focus primarily with K-8 students in reading, writing, and math.
“Patty had been tutoring my son for 3 years and we absolutely love her. She is a teacher in Birmingham schools where she specializes in working with children who have learning challenges. She has helped my son with reading fluency, comprehension, and math skills. I highly recommend her for supplemental educational needs.”

"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!"
