Hi! I’m Priya and I’m 18. I don’t have any paid babysitting experience yet, but I really love being around babies, especially infants. I’m super gentle, patient, and I’m happy to help with things like feeding, diaper changes, or bath time. I’m also totally fine following whatever routine you already have. I’m just here to make things easier and keep your baby happy and comfortable. I’m available part time, and I’d love to help out if you need someone!

Priya is very good with kids especially babies. She babysit a friend’s baby once and did a very good job. The baby was feed, cleaned and in a good mood.

Paula $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m excited to share a bit about myself. I have over 10 years of childcare experience, rooted in my upbringing in a large Mexican family. As the oldest cousin on both sides, I've been surrounded by kids my whole life. My mom is one of seven, which means I have 25 cousins on her side alone, plus 8 more on my dad’s side! Growing up in this vibrant family environment instilled in me a deep love for caring for children. From babysitting my younger cousins to organizing fun activities, I’ve learned how to adapt to different personalities and needs. I believe that every child deserves a safe, nurturing, and fun atmosphere, and I strive to create that in every interaction. I’m passionate about fostering creativity, encouraging curiosity, and making lasting memories. I look forward to the opportunity to connect with your family!
