I’m a responsible, energetic, and caring babysitter with experience working with children of all ages. I previously worked with Busy Bees Babysitting in Phoenix, Arizona, where I babysat part-time during the off-season while playing collegiate basketball at Grand Canyon University for three years. This experience helped me develop strong skills in childcare, safety, and keeping kids engaged in fun, age-appropriate activities. I recently moved to San Jose to finish my final year of basketball at San José State University, and my athletic background has strengthened my discipline, leadership, and time management skills. I genuinely enjoy working with kids, as a come from a big family, and creating a positive, safe, and fun environment for them. I’m patient, dependable, and great at building connections with children and families. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, homework, and daily routines. I look forward to meeting your family!

Ashanti $26 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring, dependable, and compassionate person with over 9 years of hands-on caregiving experience. I started caring for my younger siblings at age 10, and over the years, families began trusting me to care for their children as well. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages and love keeping them entertained, safe, and comfortable. I also enjoy doing kids’ hair and helping with their everyday routines. I’m a true animal lover and have cared for animals my entire life. I’ve had three dogs of my own and currently have two cats, so I’m comfortable caring for pets as well. I’ve also helped older adults with household cleaning, errands, technology, and companionship. I’m patient, a good listener, and genuinely enjoy being someone others can rely on.
