Booked by 4 families in Lakeland, MN

Hi There! My name is Rachel and I'm 29 years old. I currently work full time as an accounting assistant at a small manufacturing company. I’m looking to fill my extra time babysitting on the weekends, I like to stay busy! I have over 10 years of childcare experience and would love to work with your family and assist with any of your childcare needs. I am adaptable with an easy-going personality. I started working at my church's Summer Camp program and Sunday School/nursery when I was 15 years old. During college I got my first nannying job and I have since been a nanny for 3 wonderful families. In addition to this, I have also babysat for many families since 2017, whether it be one time or regularly. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends, spending time outside, cooking, and traveling. My hobbies include taking dance classes, ice skating lessons, and playing in the bell choir at church. I have a valid driver's license, insurance, and a clean driving record. In addition, we do not have any pets at my house and I'm a non-smoker. Thank you so much for your consideration and I hope to hear from you!

Safia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Safia and I’m currently a junior at the University of St. Thomas, studying finance. I love kids and have experience working with them my whole life — I have two younger siblings who I’ve babysat since I was young. I also worked at an autism center for 3 years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for and supporting children with diverse needs. I’m also comfortable with household chores and genuinely enjoy cleaning and keeping things organized. I have been a caretaker for my grandma, so I’m well experienced with senior care too. I am allergic to and scared of dogs, but happy to work with families with cats.
