Hello! My name is Sabrin, I am currently an incoming freshman at the UofM. I am offering a variety of care options for anyone who needs them. I’m currently in school to pursue a psychology degree where I will hopefully use it to become a child psychiatrist. I’ve always loved watching over and taking care of children with babysitting family and friends young ones. I am able to play, tutor, feed, and clean after your pets, kids, or house. I’m open to household chores and overall to do lists. I am unfortunately unable to travel with your child or pet so please keep that in mind. I can’t really interact with dogs but I am open to watching over cats and other pets.
Hello, I'm Maddy! I'm originally from southern Illinois near St. Louis, MO but moved here to pursue a Biology, Society, and Environment degree at UMN. While in undergrad, I worked as a tour guide and eventually a supervisor in Admissions. I also loved my time as a tuba player in the marching band! After graduating this spring, I'm now pursing an M.Ed and teaching license, hoping to teach HS or MS biology! Experience with Kids: While I was in high school, I was a part-time babysitter for 2 lovely boys (9, 11) and a camp counselor at a theatre camp (ages 5-13). Between these two jobs, I made a lot of chicken fajitas and sang a lot of camp songs! In the past 4 years, I've gained more experience as an AVID tutor and assistant teacher at local middle schools. If your student needs some extra homework help, I am happy to assist! Experience with Pets: Living in the country, I've always had a few dogs or cats around...as well as cows, goats, and chickens! My mom trained as a vet tech and passed down a few emergency response techniques, a careful pet owner herself. I've done lots of overnight sitting in the past, and would be happy to watch over your furry/hairy/wooly/scale-y/feathery friends while you're out of town! Experience with Seniors: While in high school, I was a dietary aide at our local nursing home, working primarily in skilled care, rehabilitation, and memory care. Of course, I was only a dietary aide and didn't do any medicine administration or physical assistance, but if you're looking for someone to help with basic tasks and have some good conversation, that's my specialty! Special Notes: Disabilities - I am happy to learn about your dependent's disability and the ways I can accommodate, but I'd like to be transparent that it's not something I have experience in yet. My teacher education has covered the basics thus far, but I believe there is lots to learn outside of the classroom! Driving - My own car is not as dependable as I'd like, so I'd be uncomfortable driving around your dependent. If you'd like me to drive your car, I am perfectly comfortable! I spent a year driving at Papa John's and always scored top marks!
Hello! My name is Amy, and I have over 10 years of experience working with kids, from babysitting and being both an au pair and a nanny in Australia, to teaching in different schools or camps as a preschool teacher, outdoor educator, middle school special education teacher, and substitute teacher in California and Minnesota. I would love to help you out with sitting your kiddo(s), as it is definitely a passion of mine. I love to help kids learn and grow all while having fun. I’d love to chat further with you!
Hi, my name is Avery! I'm a freshman at the university of Minnesota. I am offering child care, pet and house sitting, and household services. I've been working with kids of all ages for the past 3 years. My experience includes babysitting, volunteering at elementary schools, and working summers at a daycare. I've been petsitting for the past 6 years and have a dog of my own back home.
Since 2017, I have gained extensive childcare experience caring for my five younger siblings from infancy through the pre-teen years. In the summer of 2025, I began gaining formal childcare experience, including part-time and occasional babysitting, four months as an after-school YMCA staff member, and six months as a teaching assistant at an elementary school. A little about me: I am an incoming college student (Fall 2026) with a passion for caring for children, and my dream career is to become a pediatrician. Some of my key characteristics include being energetic, playful, patient, responsible, and attentive.
