Alyssa $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Alyssa, I have had the pleasure of working with children for over a decade now, since 2010. In my professional journey, I have served as an assistant director and currently hold the position of a lead teacher in a PreK classroom. I take pride in my qualifications, as I am Director certified, CPR/First Aid certified, and have a strong background in Reggio Curriculum. I have had the opportunity to work closely with numerous families, including one that I have been with for the past 10 years, initially meeting through care. com. I am seeking an afterschool babysitting position where I can continue to engage with children outside of the traditional classroom setting. Im interested in taking children to and from afterschool activities, planning exciting outdoor adventures, and providing homework assistance and support with any other afterschool tasks. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you would like more info or if you are interested in discussing potential opportunities.

Looking for someone to fill in those last minute days or nights? Having a hard time finding a long term nanny but need someone else during the search? I’m available! I am a Freelance Film Production Coordinator looking for some part time work. I am the oldest of 7 children and have always been around kids. I worked at a daycare throughout high school and college, and then was a nanny for several years. Currently, I help to take care of my nieces and nephews (aged 3months - 5years) as needed. I am very comfortable and confident with all ages. First Aid and CPR Certified. References available.

“Kayla was great with both kids. My 4 year old loved talking with her and she had my 2 year old smiling and giggling. We will definitely have her back!”

Sarah $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m a kind, caring, and extroverted sitter who loves creating a safe and supportive environment where kids can feel comfortable being themselves. I have experience working with children through babysitting family members, volunteering in an elementary school, and completing a semester-long teaching experience with 5th-grade students. I currently volunteer weekly with kindergarteners in an afterschool program and assist in 5th/6th-grade science classrooms. I’m patient, dependable, and very comfortable communicating with kids. I enjoy taking the time to listen to children and help them put their thoughts, feelings, and needs into words in a respectful way. I love playing games, getting creative, and keeping kids engaged, and I truly don’t mind watching the same movie or listening to the same song for the hundredth time! I’m also BLS/CPR certified for infants, children, and adults, bilingual in Spanish, and happy to help with homework, tutoring, meals, and school pickup/walking home.
