Booked by 9 families in Southaven, MS

Hello, my name is Kayla and I am a student at The Ivy Institute of Esthetics. I am offering child and pet care. I currently work at a daycare and would like to provide care during my free time. I have also tutored kids kindergarten through second grade. I do have experience with taking care of pets as well.

Kayla did great with our 2 y/o daughter! She is reliable, flexible, and punctual. Her approach is very soft spoken and gentle. She’s reserved but you can feel her calm, patient presence. My little one quickly became comfortable with her and that stood out. We will be booking as a recurring family!

Hi - My name is Mo and I'm a nanny & home organizer. I am mainly offering weekend household services at this time. I do occasionally accept child care requests. I have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, etc. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. My daughter is well behaved and will sometimes accompany me when I babysit.

She was reliable and great with kids.

"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!"
