Hello, I am Raelyn and I am currently a college student looking for some summer jobs. I have worked at a child care center for almost 3 years as a floating teachers. I have worked mostly with infants and toddlers, but have little experience with the older kids. I have a reliable vehicle and am willing to help out with extras such as rides, tutoring, chores, and pet care if needed!
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 :)
Hello! My name is Miranda, I am 20 years old currently getting my Bachelors of science, studying Exercise Science with a minor in Psychology. I have been babysitting/working with children since I was 12 and I really enjoy it. I worked as a certified paraprofessional at a Charter school for children with disabilities for a little over 1.5 years. My future goals are to go to grad school and become an Occupational Therapist! I enjoy going on adventures, reading, and meeting new people. I would love to meet your family and become someone reliable during times of need:)

"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."
