My name is lola i’m 18 years old and i’ve been babysitting for over 10 years now with all different age groups starting from 1-13 years old with boys and girls and people with special needs as well. I’m a super welcoming and inviting person who believes everyone deserves to be loved and cared for.
I am a caring, patient, and responsible person with strong experience caring for children and managing a home. As a mother, I understand children’s needs, routines, and safety. I enjoy helping kids learn, play, and feel comfortable. I am organized, trustworthy, and happy to support families with childcare and light household tasks.
With a decade of experience caring for children and seniors, I have developed strong skills in providing reliable, compassionate, and attentive care. My background includes adapting to various needs, and creating safe, engaging environments for children. From managing daily routines and meal prep to organizing activities that foster learning and creativity, I am committed to ensuring a nurturing experience. In addition to caregiving, I am currently an Office Manager at a medical clinic, where I oversee scheduling, medical records, and administrative tasks. My diverse experience reflects my dedication to responsibility, organization, and providing quality care.
Hi, my name is Blanca I’m a college student looking to make some extra money for school and future savings, I’ve taken care of kids my whole life due to having such hardworking parents me and my brother were always the main caretakers for my siblings, I can make baby bottles, change diapers, bath, burp, and massage the baby if constipated, and can take care of of older kids too I don’t mind playing for long periods of time and I’m here to answer all the questions I’m asked especially from parents and young children, I’m very patient and don’t mind messes or anything you would need I’m here to help, I have 2 kittens and 1 dog at home so I’m very comfortable with pets and wouldn’t mind helping care for them and adjust to your schedule.
My name is Evie and I am a student at WWU. In high school, I had the best job at the YMCA for 2 years for elementary age kids. I also have been babysitting for 4 years. I have two bunnies, a hamster, a parakeet, and a fish at home so I am experienced at taking care of many different critters, as well as cats and dogs! I am open to many kinds of work such as babysitting, any kind of pet watching/walking, house sitting, and running errands.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
