Rosangely $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I'm newer to this field but growing up I've always loved helping others. Whether it was helping take care of my 4 little siblings, or our family dog I've always been in an environment where I was helping to care for someone. I also would love volunteering, for 4 years I was a reading tutor for a company called Read&Feed and I also dabbled in volunteering at different events as well as summer camps. I recently went to school for Esthetics and work part-time as a medical esthetician at a Wellness Clinic in Cary. Currently, I'm just looking for part-time work for the days I'm not at the Clinic. I'm open to working with any age group including senior care as well as pets like cats and dogs :)
Jennifer $24 per hour for 1 child
I have 15+ years of childcare experience with kids of all ages, from babies through teenagers, and I’m also a former foster parent. I’m CPR certified, dependable, patient, and comfortable jumping into whatever routine works best for your family. I love keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, outdoor activities, reading, or just hanging out and having fun together. I’m comfortable around all kinds of animals and am happy to help with pets while I’m there. Most importantly, I want kids to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—and parents to feel confident knowing their kids are in good hands. Hobbies include music, hiking, crafts, hanging with my dog, reading, and trying to pay off some recent medical bills ;)

Hi! I’m Alexandra, a Human Development and Family Studies major at UNCG with ECE credentials and daycare experience. I offer child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 and have cared for children of all ages from newborns to teens. I also cook, clean, run errands, and love pets (I have a German Shepherd named Zeus!).
“This was the first time we ever hired a babysitter to watch our 3yo and we were a little nervous about it but were so glad we did. Alexandra is such a sweetheart! We got updates during and our daughter seemed so content when we got home. We will definitely hire her again in the future. ”
