Booked by 1 family in South Jordan, UT

Hi my name is Hercy! I have experience taking care of kids between 6 months old to 10 years old. I took care of 3 beautiful girls for almost 3 years. Also I used to take care of a baby boy for 6 months, he was 5 months old then. I can take them to different activities. Also I love dogs so if you have one I will feel comfortable and happy as well around them. I speak Spanish so I can teach them some words if you want me to do it!

Our boys loved hanging out with Hercy! They talked about all the fun things they did, from playing with toys to building things to going sledding. Hercy was also flexible when we were running late. Would definitely recommend Hercy!

I was born and raised in Utah! I go to the university of Utah and I go to school Monday Wednesday and Friday just from 2-4. I used to nannie a little boy from 4 months till he was a year and a half. But I have little cousins that I used to baby sit all the time! I love babies and toddlers. I will have fun with the kids and do activities with them. I am reliable, I have a pretty open availability besides when I have school, I am patient, and my top priority is making sure the kids are safe and well taken care of:). I have lots of experience in taking care of pets! I was a dog/cat sitter for a lot of people for a couple years and i loved it! I also have a dog of my own that I take care of. I really enjoy cleaning as well. And would be happy to help with any chores or running errands that need to be done.

I was a nanny for a family of 3 beautiful baby girls. Olivia (3-6), Gabby (1-3), and Izzy (4 months-2) so I have plenty of experience with children. I also babysat for another family that has 3 children - two girls, one boy, same ages as the previous family. The third family I provide date night services for has two wonderful children - 9 year old boy and 5 year old baby girl. The fourth family I occasionally babysat for have 3 beautiful children - 5 year old girl, 2 year old baby boy, and 1 year old baby boy. Growing up I always wanted to watch my younger siblings and cousins and surround myself with babies. I have a giant heart so when I babysit I end up loving the children like they are my own and care about them tremendously. I would love the opportunity to meet your babies!

Hi, my name is Tabitha ! I am a student at Utah State University studying biology. I am offering childcare, pet care, and house care! I love spending time with kids! I have been babysitting for 5 years now, I have a lot of experience with infants- 9 year olds. During those 5 years I have done tons of crafts, dance parties, fun days at the park, field trips, and helped with homework. I can cook and bake mostly anything and I am very good working with food allergies and restrictions. I am also comfortable with bottles and formula. I have also watched countless pets including cats, dogs, fish, guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles. I can do short-term house sitting during the summer and also weekends year round. I spent most of my summer watching my nephews to get experience and I have been a sitter for a few families for 4 years straight. When I finish school I hope to be a pediatrician and getting to spend any time with kids and animals is always the highlight of my week!

"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!"
