Ruby $20 per hour for 1 child

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!

Tiana $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Tiana, a dependable and caring babysitter who brings a fun, calm energy to childcare. I love keeping kids engaged through creative activities like arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, while always prioritizing safety and structure. I’m patient, attentive, and great at following routines like homework time, meals, and bedtime. I have experience working with children ages 4-10 due to mentorship programs. I also come from a large family, having six siblings, so I am capable of watching numerous children at once. Outside of caretaking, I am currently a college student getting a BFA. I also have work experience in public event management, catering to a wide age range. I aim to make every event accessible and inclusive to all.
