Kelly $25 per hour for 1 child

I have over 25 years of experience in early childhood education and hold an Early Education Certificate from Rasmussen College. I’ve cared for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years in childcare centers, as a nanny, and through babysitting. I love bringing arts, crafts, STEM activities, and games to make learning fun. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable driving, cleaning, caring for multiple children, and love animals. I’m very communicative and always follow each family’s routine and preferences.

Hannah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Hannah, a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) who genuinely loves spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun. I believe the best babysitters do more than keep children occupied, they create experiences. Whether we're making art projects, exploring nature, building forts, reading stories, playing imaginative games, or inventing our own backyard adventures, I love finding creative ways to keep kids engaged, active, and smiling. Building strong rapport with children comes naturally to me, and my professional background has given me extensive experience connecting with kids of all ages, personalities, and abilities. When you hire me, you're not getting a teenager parked on the couch scrolling TikTok while the TV babysits your child. You're getting a master's-trained Speech-Language Pathologist with years of experience working with children in educational, therapeutic, and recreational settings. I bring patience, creativity, reliability, and a genuine passion for helping kids feel confident, heard, and valued. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and enriching environment where children can be themselves, try new things, and have a great time while parents enjoy peace of mind.

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!
