Hi! My name is Shylin, I am a new college student who loves children! I’m a dependable and caring babysitter who loves creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids. With 2-3 years of babysitting experience, I’ve learned the importance of patience, kindness, and keeping children engaged through games, crafts, outdoor play, and other activities they enjoy. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, can help with meal prep and light housekeeping, and always keep parents updated. I can’t wait to meet your family! 🌼

Hi! I’m a caring, dependable babysitter with 9+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve nannied for families for multiple summers and another family for three years, and I have a degree in Child Development.

Lindsay $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m a mom, former early childhood educator, and experienced nanny who especially loves caring for babies. I have a Master’s in Early Childhood Education along with a background in Montessori education, functional nutrition, and many years of working with children and families. I’m calm, nurturing, dependable, and very comfortable with the rhythms of caring for little ones—feeding, bottles, diapering, soothing, naps, developmental play, and keeping their environment peaceful and predictable. Most recently, I cared for an 18-month-old 35 hours a week and managed his full daytime routine, including meals, naps, play, music, outdoor time, and early learning. I’m particularly interested in newborn and infant care, including overnight positions where I can support both baby and exhausted parents through those early months. I’m also an animal lover, comfortable with pets, and happy to help with the everyday tasks directly related to baby’s care. I’m currently looking for a consistent position with a family who wants a mature, experienced caregiver they can truly trust with their little one.

"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!"
