Hi, my name is Caleigh and I'm currently a student at the University of Utah. I am offering childcare and pet care. I come from a small town in Colorado where I have been babysitting since I was 11. I got my Red Cross certificate in 2017 and began babysitting right after. I babysat my sister before my parents trusted her alone, and then I moved to babysitting for teachers and my mom's friends (ages 4-10). I have three cousins in my family (ages 5, 4, and 2) and have been babysitting them since they were very little. I have babysat children of all ages, including one family with a 3 year old and 5 month old (dealt with a diaper blowout). I also have a puppy at home for whom I have cared for and I have experience in house sitting with two dogs for a week straight. I also have experience in cat sitting while a family spent 10 days in Florida, I took care of their two cats. I would describe myself as a creative person, with an imagination to fulfill toddlers dreams and games. I am funny and comforting, and can calm children down who may feel distressed being with someone new. I am very friendly and am very comfortable speaking with adults to figure out what the child/pet needs and how to continue their routine. I am very kind and patient and will sit through whatever I need to in order for a child/pet to feel most comfortable with me and/or the absence of their parents. I can drive and have a truck with a full size back seat for car seats. I am artistic, with lots of experience in drawing and writing and love to explore the creative side of children. I ski and love camping and rafting and outdoor adventures. I adore children and love spending time with them, learning about their interests and wildest dreams.

Hi- I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 and have several years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and teens. I truly love working with kids and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where they feel comfortable being themselves. I’m patient, reliable, and understanding of all kinds of family dynamics. I’m also happy to help with light cleaning, cooking, errands, and pet care if needed. I bring a positive, calm energy into every home and love building genuine connections with the families I work with.

Hello my name is Olivia! I am attending UVU in the fall and will join their elementary education program in the spring. While in highschool, I have had the opportunity to take our schools daycare class for my junior and senior year. I learned how to care for children ranging in age from 3 months to 6 years old. I eventually was allowed to create lessons for children at the preschool age and watch the children if the head teacher had to step out. I also had the experience to do an internship during my senior year with a second grade class. I was able to understand children more and it was a great experience! I am able to help children with homework and projects if needed. I was part of many extracurricular activities growing up and would love to help children excel in their hobbies. Services that I offer are cooking, dog watching, cleaning, laundry, tutoring, and running errands. My other skills include dog watching and house keeping. At my parent’s home, I grew up with dogs and know how to watch and care for them and their needs. I am also able to run errands including grocery shopping. I love to clean and keep spaces organized!

I worked at a daycare for about 6 months, and those were some of the best months of my life! I am able to work under stress well, and follow directions. I am the oldest of 6 siblings! Being able to provide a safe space for your children is my highest priority! I am most comfortable with infants and babies. I'm patient and kind, and open communication is very important to me!
