Sydney $16 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My Name is Syd, and I look forward to taking care of your loved one! I am currently a student at OCCC studying biology, but I will soon be transferring to OU. My experience in childcare includes babysitting, coaching soccer for ages 2-5, substitute teaching for elementary middle school, and helping with summer camps like VBS. I hold myself to a high standard of responsibility but love making sure that the little ones are having a blast with crafts, games, and lots of exercise! (Dance parties are a personal favorite.) When I was 13, my first job was a stable hand, which involved caring for many different animals. I’ve also had plenty of pets in my lifetime, some of which have had special health issues like diabetes, collapsed tracheas, cancers and skin disorders, so I have no issues caring for special needs animals. I am a very experienced cook and enjoy keeping a house tidy. As a vegetarian, I understand the importance of paying close attention to specific dietary needs, but cooking meat products is no problem and something I do often.

Booked by 5 families in Oklahoma City, OK

Hello! My name is Erin, and I am a friendly, attentive, organized and caring 35 year old in OKC looking for temporary/occasional/part-time sitting work. I have babysat and worked with kids in many of my past jobs, and am currently in the process of getting my certification to become an Art Teacher! I have always been very creative, and majored in Fine Art in college. I’m looking forward to being able to use my creative skills more again soon, and to be able to share the joy that art brings me with students in Oklahoma. I have also previously worked with dogs (doing training then as a manager at a dog park) and have 3 pups of my own. I love all dogs, and make it my mission to win over every single one I meet. In my free time I love to travel, cheer on the OKC Thunder and spend time with loved ones. Lastly, I’m very familiar with the OKC Metro and surrounding areas, and enjoy being out and about running errands etc., if ever needed as well. Housework, transporting kiddos places, homework help, pet care, cooking, laundry… I got you. I’d be delighted to meet and see how I can help your family out today! - Erin

Erin is amazing! Highly recommend- she has a gift for organizing - is very timely and professional.

Crystal 1 review
$17 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Crystal and I am looking to provide child, senior care, or pet care. I have a Bachelor’s in Sociology: Human Services and have experience working with children, seniors, and pets for over 10 years. I love caring for young children and for the last 2 years have been the primary sitter for a toddler, currently 20 months old. I also have experience with crisis intervention and mental health wellbeing of children and adults. I have worked with youth’s in crisis and seniors in a nursing home setting. In the past, I have also been a certified foster parent with OKDHS and was able to foster 2 children, between the ages 10-15. For over 5 years, I also worked at an animal hospital and I am able to provide services like dog sitting, walking, administering medication, and more. I have worked with puppies and senior dogs. I am able to assist with basic dog training commands and assist with chronic medical conditions in dogs. Unfortunately, I am allergic to cats and am only able to provide very short term care for cats. I am reliable and always flexible to adjust any needs as necessary. I hope to provide care in a respectful and supportive manner.

She is very patient, kind, and understanding. She has babysat for me for almost 2 years. My son loves her and I can tell she treats him with the best care. I get updates of how their day is going and she is very reliable. She is always respectful of our rules and boundaries.
