I am currently a freshman at Elmhurst University in Illinois, and play for the volleyball team. I am studying marketing. I grew up in Las Vegas and attend Bishop Gorman High School. I come to Vegas during school breaks and work there as well as in Elmhurst. My older sister has two kids that I have been helping with since I was 11. They are now the ages of 7 and 1. I drive now so I take them to their extracurricular activities and entertain them with fun activities including crocheting, knitting, painting, coloring, playing outside, as well as cooking. I am super comfortable helping with running errands and cleaning around the house. I have 2 cats and 3 dogs so working with animals is no problem! I love playing with animals as well as taking them out for walks!
Hi, my name is Mia and I’m currently a freshman at Dominican University. I am offering child and pet care. I currently have no experience working with children but want to change that, as I hope to become a child psychologist in the future. I am willing to offer homework help and cleaning services around the house. I am a pet owner of 4 dogs myself, all different breeds, and offer dog sitting, walks, and regular play. I am more comfortable with small to medium dogs but am willing to care for larger dogs as well.
Hi – My name is Karen, and I’m currently on a gap year from the University of Michigan. I’m using this time to work and save up before returning to finish my degree. I love working with kids and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’ve helped my aunt with her nanny job and also worked at a home daycare, caring for children of different ages. I’ve also cared for my nieces, so I’m used to keeping things fun, patient, and organized. I can cook, help with light cleaning, and assist with household tasks. I don’t drive, but I’m reliable, always on time, and prefer families nearby or accessible by public transit. I’m also comfortable working with dogs and enjoy creating a warm, positive environment for families.
Hello! My name is Si’edah. I came across your profile and wanted to introduce myself because I believe my background and experience align well with what you’re looking for. I am a Registered Nurse with a strong foundation in compassionate, person-centered care. Prior to nursing, I worked closely with adults with disabilities and individuals on the autism spectrum, supporting them through daily living activities, arts and crafts, creative projects, and engaging routines. I truly enjoy cooking and can follow new recipes with ease. I also love incorporating movement, gentle exercise, and meaningful activities into the day to keep things positive and engaging. I am nurturing, patient, and attentive, and I always strive to create a safe, comfortable, and encouraging environment for the people I work with. I have reliable transportation, I do not smoke, and I approach every role with professionalism and kindness. I would love the opportunity to connect and see if I may be a good fit for your needs.
Hi, my names Ruby, I used to babysit a lot in high school before I moved and thought it was so fun! I mostly worked with two kids aged 2 and 4, and babysat them for almost a year. I’m a first year college student so babysitting is a great way for me to make money while still having time to focus on school work. I’m also an artist although I’m still working towards making a living off that. But if your kids enjoy to draw I’ll probably end up teaching them a thing or two too!
