Lorynn $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Lorynn! I’m a dependable, patient, and safety-focused caregiver with experience caring for younger family members, including my little brother, as well as babysitting for a child in my neighborhood. I also have experience as a camp counselor. I especially enjoy caring for babies and young children and understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident in the person caring for their child. I am an American Heart Association BLS Provider, with training in CPR and AED, and I have also completed the AHA BLS Instructor Essentials Online & Core training. I’m attentive to routines and comfortable following parents’ instructions for feeding, diapering, soothing, play, and naps. My goal is to provide calm, attentive, and safe care while keeping parents informed. I’m currently looking for weekend babysitting opportunities, with a particular interest in infant care from newborn through 9 months. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming someone you can trust!

Booked by 1 family in Catawba, SC

Hey there! My name is Pamella and I am a full time pediatric dental assistant who's looking to gain more experience as a babysitter. I absolutely love children and I have been a babysitter for over 3 years now. My responsibilities have been household chores, making lunches, and driving kids to and from school. I'm excited to use my skill and looking forward to hearing from you soon!

“Pamella is kind, patient, flexible, and responsible. She did a great job taking care of our 16 month old and even did some light housework. Would recommend.”

"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!"
