I have been babysitting/nannying since I was 13 years old (so decades at this point!). I am a classroom teacher (certified in EBD, DD, and SLD) and have taught all grade levels for over 14 years. I also taught K-5 gym and yoga for 4 years. I love playing with kids, being silly, singing, dancing, and spending time outside. I love cartoons, toys...and well, I'm a kid at heart! My priority is your child's well-being and safety. I have cat and dog sit and have spent considerable time with seniors either through social events or teaching yoga.
Hello! I am in my freshman year of college and I’m studying to become a teacher. I grew up with 5 siblings and took care of them usually. I also babysat for children around the neighborhood when their parents were away. I love taking care of children and work with all ages! I can clean. I have also worked in a senior home so I am available to work with seniors as well!
Hello! My name is Grace and I'm a student at the University of Minnesota! I work with kids for my university job and am frequently responsible for their care. In high school I also babysat for as young as 3 years old around my community. I am a good cook, love to hang out and play games, and have animals at my apartment so I'm more than comfortable with a few furry friends :)
Hi, my name is Princess! I recently graduated from Augsburg University with a Biopsychology Pre-Med degree. I currently work at Children’s Minnesota as a Genetics Clinic Assistant and have experience in childcare, tutoring, after-school programs, and senior care. I’m certified in BLS and enjoy helping people of all ages feel safe, supported, and confident. I offer child care, tutoring/homework help, after-school care, senior care, and household assistance. I can also help with light cooking, errands, and companionship. I have two years of experience working with toddlers, preschoolers in daycare, and have also worked as a middle school tutor and after-school teacher. I enjoy fostering learning, confidence, and creativity through crafts, reading, games, and educational activities. I have experience caring for family members and assisting seniors with daily routines, companionship, and household support. I enjoy making a positive difference in their day and creating a safe and welcoming environment. I am BLS certified and have professional experience in child care, tutoring, and clinical support. I am allergic to cats and dogs

"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."
