Elizabeth $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello folks! I am Elizabeth and am so excited to meet you! I am happy to offer child care, senior care, and household services. I have a car and am available to help with driving tasks. I have over five years of experience in healthcare. As a float pool nurse, I worked in units all across the age spectrum from adolescent psychiatry to geriatric care. Therefore, I am very comfortable working with children and folks of all ages and abilities. I have my basic and advanced life support licenses and an overall focus on the well-being and joy of those I interact with. Additionally, I have a background in outdoor education. I’ve worked as camp counselor, soccer coach, and as well as a facilitator for team building workshops. I love to be outside and I love to help others explore the world around them in order to discover and grow into themselves. Happy to work with families with dogs, but I am allergic to cats. Thank you!

$26 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old with ages 1 yr up to 12 years old. Additionally, I grew up in a big family taking care of my nieces and nephews since they were babies. I have a full time job as a behavior technician providing ABA therapy for kids with Autism and have worked in this field for the past 5 years with ages ranging from 2 years old to adulthood. I love babysitting and would love more opportunities to do so! Love engaging kiddos in crafts, homework, games, and fun activities.

“Mabel is such a caring and wonderful babysitter! She is so sweet and my 2 kids adore her. She is reliable and always on time and is flexible with her hours. She has great professional experience with kids and our children always look forward to spending time with her. I would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a dependable and experienced babysitter.”

"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!"
