Taylor $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Taylor! I am an artist and an enthusiastic, positive person. I have some education in early childhood education with an art degree. I love to have fun and have no issue getting on the floor to play with your children. I have a background in arts facilitation and programming with children's age groups and adults/seniors with disabilities. I have experience with all age groups and began babysitting at 12. I now have 5 nieces and nephews ranging from 1-12 years that I get to care for frequently. I have experience watching twins as well. I am patient, fun, and dependable. I am looking for work outside of my Tuesday-Friday job. I am happy to help out here and there or discuss something more permanent. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family!

Brianna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi Families, I may be new to this app, but I am definitely not new to child care! I got my first job at a child care center in Rosemount when I was 16 years old working in the infant room. I worked there for a year and a half, then spent a year in the toddler room (changing more diapers than I could possibly count). I continued to work there while I was in college, and became the “lead teacher” of the preschool room! During this time I spent two summers nannying for a family that had two identical twin four year old boys, and an 8 year old girl two-three days a week. I also had countless babysitting jobs on the weekends! I eventually had to leave my kids at that day care when I was 20 years old because I got a job at the university of Minnesota’s Child Development Center working with the 4 and 5 year olds. I also was involved in a research project called Chicago Longitudinal Study promoting early education for low income neighborhoods around this same time. I graduated with a Developmental Psychology degree (also knows as Child Psychology) and began my Masters program in Clinical Social Work with a speciality in family and children. I now work at a elementary school in Hennepin county as the school therapist for the children! I’m looking to use my experience to make some extra money to pay off some of the student debt. I’ve always loved working with kids, and I have the experience and education to back it up! I have experience with all ages, and I’m happy to answer any questions you may have! I’m willing to negotiate on pricing depending on the situation.

"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!"
