Hi, I’m currently finishing up my masters in OT! I have childcare experience ranging from 6 m.o. to 10 y.o.! I love working with kids of all ages and once I finish my program I hope to work with pediatric! I also have experience working with children with special needs!
I'm a dedicated and energetic babysitter with 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I have a military background, which has instilled in me discipline, reliability, and strong organizational skills. I love working with kids, creating fun and engaging activities, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I have CPR and First Aid training (in progress), and I'm comfortable driving, assisting with homework, and helping around the house with light housekeeping. I'm available for part-time and/or full time positions and bring enthusiasm, patience, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. Your children's safety, growth, and happiness are my top priorities!
“Frances came through for me on short notice to babysit my son before school started. And she dropped him off safely as well. Thank you!”
I have worked in childcare for the last 3 years. Throughout my experience I have learned to supervise children effectively to foster a safe and nurturing atmosphere while promoting developmental growth. Supported parents with guidance and resources to enhance their parenting skills and strengthen family dynamics. As a lifelong animal lover and responsible caregiver, I offer dependable, loving, and personalized pet sitting services. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight care, or just a walk and some playtime, I treat every pet like my own with kindness, patience, and lots of love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats with all kinds of personalities. I understand how important it is to maintain routines.
I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old, caring for families with anywhere from one to four children ranging in age from newborns to 12 years old. I also have a one year old of my own and bring a strong educational background to my childcare experience. I’ve been a teacher for nine years with a focus in special education and have taught Kindergarten, 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. I’m very hands-on and love engaging kids in both indoor and outdoor activities, from creative crafts to active play. I’m also happy to help with homework, chores, and daily routines. I can prepare meals, tidy up, and ensure the kids stay on track while having fun. In addition to my love for working with children, I’m an animal lover who grew up with dogs and currently has a chocolate lab.
“Absolutely wonderful! Courtney is engaged with my son the whole time she is here!”
Hi! My name is Shimaine, but you can call me Shi (pronounced like “shy”). I’m a loving, fun, and patient caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with people of all ages. My journey started in middle school and high school, babysitting for families in my community. During undergrad, I worked for an on-call nanny agency, gaining even more hands-on experience with children of all ages. I later worked as a CNA and direct care provider, assisting individuals with daily living tasks, light housekeeping, and meal prep. When it comes to kids, I’m all about keeping them entertained and engaged. Whether it’s playing games, doing crafts, or coming up with creative ways to make daily routines more fun. I understand that every child is different, and I know how to connect with them on their level. Currently, I’m a Registered Behavior Technician and working toward my Behavior Analyst certification, so I have plenty of experience with structure, positive reinforcement, and making learning fun. As a dog owner, I’m comfortable with pets and happy to help in pet-friendly homes. I have a reliable vehicle, CPR certification, and a strong commitment to making life easier for families. Looking forward to helping out however I can!
“I've worked with and highly recommend Shi as a babysitter! As an RBT, they have exceptional experience working with children, including those with diverse needs. Their patience, creativity, and ability to keep kids engaged make them a fantastic caregiver. Parents can trust that their children are in safe, capable, and caring hands!”

"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!"
