Madeline $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Madeline. I am 21 years old and a recent college graduate, looking to do short term work as I apply for jobs in my field. I have five years of work experience as a lifeguard and swim instructor, where I worked with, cared for, and taught children ages 9 months to 15 years. I have informal babysitting experience through family and friends, and I am First Aid/CPR certified through the Red Cross. In my time instructing I often worked with children with disabilities, and would also be comfortable caring for nonverbal children. Aside from kids, I have experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds, and fish! At the moment, I am free to work any day, any time :)

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Anoka, MN

Hi, I’m Giulia. I’m 23 years old and I’m from Italy. I’ve been working as a nanny for over a year and have experience with newborns, toddlers, and preschoolers. I also worked in summer camps (6-12yo kids). I’m a very sociable and friendly person who enjoys working with children. I am a caring, energetic and dependable nanny who loves spending time with children. I enjoy helping them learn new things, be creative, and have fun while making sure they feel safe and supported. I don’t have any problem with pets (I have a dog and two cats!)

“Giulia was punctual, kind, and easy to work with! Our son had a lot of fun with her. We’d be happy to have her babysit again! ”

Acacia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Acacia and I am a mom, entrepreneur, and avid animal lover. I have a great deal of experience with children of all ages. This experience comes from raising my own kids and from giving a helping hand to siblings and friends when they have needed it. In my early twenties I also worked for a year as a personal care attendant mostly with seniors, but also with a few children who had disabilities as well. In addition to this, I have also cared for my own grandparents in times of need and my father when he was fighting cancer. I grew up on a hobby farm which fostered a huge love of animals in me. I have a lot of experience with a large array of animals and currently own my own business in petcare that I do during the week. I am comfortable with most aspects of petcare and I am currently certified in pet first aid and CPR. Thank you so much for your time and I look forward to getting to know you and your loved ones better!

"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!"
