Hello. My name is Jordan and I’m 22. I have two siblings aged 18 and 11. I have experience babysitting children from the age of 4 months to 12 years old.I also have experience babysitting children with special needs. I’m also very experienced with having more than one little one running around. I have had groups of up to 6 in my private sitting experience. As well as my private experience I also formerly worked as an After School Counselor for the YMCA and as an After School Teacher at Thales Academy (Private school). I’m also a very experienced pet sitter so if you have furry friends I’m all about it too. These are the basics and I’d love to chat with anyone who may have questions!

Jordan was so kind and friendly with our baby girl. We booked with her twice and both times she arrived early and was respectful of our home. We especially appreciated her responsiveness during the booking process and her ability to communicate with us when we had questions or wanted to check on our little girl!

40/M/Apex - I grew up with a Golden Retriever named Fenway, a Vizsla named Punkin, and now I have a 4 year old, 6lb Yorkie named Mosby. I have successfully watched a French Bulldog on a few occasions and have been referred to as the BryMCA...so there's that.

Hello! My name is Ada, and I am a warm, dependable, and bilingual babysitter who speaks both English and Spanish. As a mother, I understand that trusting someone with your children is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make. My mission is to give parents complete peace of mind by providing a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where children feel secure, valued, and genuinely cared for. Every child is unique, and I love getting to know their personality, interests, and routines. Whether I’m caring for a newborn, an energetic toddler, or a school-age child, I strive to create a calm, joyful atmosphere filled with kindness, patience, encouragement, and fun. From reading stories and creative play to bedtime routines and healthy snacks, I focus on making every moment meaningful while ensuring your child feels comfortable and happy. I know that life can be busy, and every parent deserves time to reconnect, recharge, and enjoy life’s special moments. Whether you’re planning a date night, celebrating an anniversary, attending a wedding, working late, traveling for business, or simply taking a well-earned break, you can leave knowing your children are in caring and capable hands. My goal is not only to care for your children, but to become someone your family can trust and rely on whenever you need support. I want you to enjoy your time away with confidence, knowing your children are safe, loved, engaged, and treated with the same care and respect I would give my own family. I believe the best childcare is built on trust, communication, patience, and genuine compassion. I would be honored to care for your little ones and become a trusted part of your family’s support system. I look forward to connecting with your family and becoming a trusted support for your little ones.

Incredibly professional, friendly, and detail oriented!
