Aneila $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Aneila! I’m a student that just turned 21 years old and I love being around children! I grew up watching kids my whole life so it’s all I’ve ever known. I’ve babysat family & friends children’s but never as an actual job. I have also worked at boys and girls club with kids throughout many different ages, working with over 20+ children even alone. I say that me being able to enjoy a job working and being able to provide for children makes me a great caregiver because I’ll never not enjoy it. I hope you can trust me to be your caregiver! :)

Natasha $25 per hour for 1 child

Introduction: Hello! While I’m somewhat new to finding caregiving and housekeeping jobs online, I’ve had a fair amount of experience watching infants and children as well as most pets. Babysitting my little cousins (ages 3,5,8) is an absolute joy for me since I genuinely enjoy taking care of others and keeping things in order. I am also able to watch dogs, cats, chickens, all rodents, snakes, goats, and reptiles, (have either had one or pet-sat one) but would be happy to receive instruction on how to take care of something not included on that list! Personal Background: I graduated with the class of 2024 from Portsmouth High School in June with a GPA of 3.7 and would like my future to be full of traveling, ceramics, and cooking. With a French mom and Canadian father, I was raised bilingual in French and English but have also learned some basic Spanish, Italian, and Russian. Having another language in the house is a plus for me, and I do offer French tutoring! I also have a twin sister who I grew up traveling to and around Europe with whenever we would visit family with our mom. I am happy to do crafts, go on walks or play outside, help with homework, read, cook, clean, or whatever else you might need for your kids, pets, and homes!

I am a dependable and nurturing caregiver who values structure, creativity, and patience. I have a clean, safe driving record and am fully capable of handling transportation needs, meal prep, light housekeeping, and homework help.
