Hello, my name is Jessica. I am a mother to a beautiful 7 month old baby girl. I have 2 dogs and a turtle and love to garden, cook, and read. I have over 25 years experience caring for children of all ages, children with disabilities, animals and the elderly.

I am trustworthy, caring, empathetic, fun and responsible!

Rachel $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m a compassionate and dependable sitter with daycare experience and a lifelong love for working with kids. I grew up helping care for my younger cousins, which taught me patience, creativity, and the importance of building strong relationships with children. As a graduate student close to finishing my Marriage and Family Therapy degree, I’m looking for small jobs to balance with my studies. I have experience working with children and teens and am passionate about creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning creative activities, or just being a supportive presence, I’m here to make sure your kids are cared for and happy. I look forward to partnering with your family!

Vallere $28 per hour for 1 child

I have three children of my own but they are older now. 😉I am an elementary teacher and enjoy being with kids. It would be great to enjoy littles outside of the school setting. I can be structured but also fun. I know how difficult it is to be a parent and I’d love to help you out with being with your littles. I enjoy being outdoors.

Hi. My name is Itu. I’m a very dependable babysitter, who knows how to provide exceptional care for your children. I have 8 years experience with children of all ages starting from infants to teenagers. I’m well-versed in creating a fun, nurturing environment that kids love and parents trust. I’m CPR and First Aid Certified. And also as all families are unique, I don’t really have a specific way of how I do things, you tell me what you need and I do just that, adding a little bit where I think it’s needed but otherwise I tailor my approach to fit your child’s needs and your household routines.. I’m dedicated to making babysitting time special for your children and stress-free for you. Thank you! Chat to you soon..

"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!"
