Hi! I’m a college senior studying Social Work with a strong background in childcare and a genuine love for working with kids. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 and now in my 20s, and I’ve helped care for my two younger brothers, who are now 12 and 13. Growing up with them taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and how to keep kids engaged and safe. I’ve worked in childcare at the YMCA since my freshman year of college, where I’ve cared for children from just a few weeks old up to age 13. I’ve also been involved in children’s ministry at my church since I was 14, and I’m still active there today. These experiences have helped me build strong skills in creating fun, safe, and supportive environments for kids of all ages. What I Offer: Experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids (4 weeks–13 years) Over 8 years of babysitting and childcare experience Current YMCA childcare staff member Long-term involvement in the church's children’s ministry Responsible, dependable, and great with routines and activities I love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun, and I’m happy to support families with whatever they need, whether it’s babysitting, help with homework, or just keeping things running smoothly at home.

Hi I’m Allyssa! I am offering childcare, pet care, and housesitting services. I have my own reliable transportation and have a flexible schedule! I have had experience caring for infants all the way up to 18 year olds. I have been babysitting since I was 12. I then worked as a Behavioral Technician for 2 years working one on one providing therapy services to children from 3 to 18 years old. I have experience with AAC devices, aggressive behaviors, helping with hygiene routines, and more. My last job was in a daycare where I cared for infants, toddlers, and up to preschool aged children. Diapers and naps don’t scare me. I also love animals and have years of experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up with a black lab and multiple cats throughout the years. I currently have a little grey little cat whom I love soo much. I can handle walks, playing, feeding, and lots of pets (if wanted of course). I am open to watching all kinds of animals. While I have never house sat before, I need to start somewhere!

Check out my care.com profile, for some family reviews:) [removed] About me! I've always loved working with kids and naturally connect with them. I'm currently a behavioral technician supporting children on the spectrum, and I love making a positive impact in their lives. Through this role, I've gained certified training in patience, attentiveness, and understanding children's behaviors - skills that carry over into babysitting every day. I'm also CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, and have my own reliable transportation. I'd describe my personality as caring, patient, and reliable. I enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel supported, whether that's through encouragement, keeping routines, or just having fun together through baby sitting. Babysitting gives me the chance to do more of what I love - spending time with little ones and creating a positive, safe environment. With open weekends, I'd love to spend my extra time helping families and caring for little ones. If you'd like to connect, I'd be happy to set up a quick phone or Zoom call!

I am a great pet sitter because I treat every pet with patience, responsibility, and genuine care. I understand that pets are part of the family, and I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines, to ensure pets experience as little disruption as possible. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels so I can quickly notice if something seems off. I’m calm and patient with pets of all personalities, whether they are energetic, shy, or anxious, and I take the time to build trust rather than rushing interactions. I also ensure that pets receive the appropriate exercise, playtime, and affection they need. I communicate clearly and consistently, providing updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are well cared for. Reliability, attention to detail, and compassion define how I care for animals.

I’ve always been around children growing up, caring for many of my younger cousins. More recently, I’ve been regularly babysitting my nephew, who just turned one, and through that experience I discovered a true passion for nannying and childcare. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I volunteer weekly in the preschool ministry at my church, where I care for and engage with young children in a structured, nurturing setting. These experiences have taught me how to keep kids safe, entertained, and supported in their development. Families describe me as reliable, patient, and upbeat and strong communication skills into every home. I'm also comfortable helping with light housekeeping and caring for pets, as needed. I have been on Rover for about 2 years now ish, caring for dogs/cats. I would love the opportunity to be a dependable, caring presence in your child’s life and support your family with compassion and professionalism.
