Leysha $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Leysha, and I’m currently taking a gap year while pursuing opportunities in childcare. As the oldest sibling in a single-parent household, I’ve gained lots of hands-on experience caring for children, helping with everyday routines, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m comfortable preparing simple meals, helping with light household tasks, school pick-ups, and keeping kids entertained and engaged. I also love animals and have experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’m patient, responsible, dependable, and have a flexible schedule. I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family and provide reliable, caring support whenever needed!

Meadow 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Meadow, I am 24 and just moved from Wisconsin. I graduated a few years ago with a business management degree. I have been babysitting since I was in middle school, I was also a full time Nanny 2 years ago during the summer. I come from a big family and have always been around kids. I currently work as a barista and we have a playroom available so I am still working with kids daily. With former families that I have worked with, I have assisted in helping with homework, getting the kids ready for school or bedtime, cooking, cleaning and walking them to school. I am comfortable with cats and dogs as well.

“Meadow is competent, trustworthy, patient and kind. My son takes awhile to warm up to people and he quickly connected with Meadow. She understood his feelings, was empathetic and patient with him. She found topics to connect with him and they built a fun relationship. She also was great with my daughter (9) who could talk with Meadow for hours. I highly recommend her and have full confidence in her skills and abilities with kids of all ages.”

Hi, my name is Kimberly. I’ve been babysitting for a while now I started off babysitting my nephew when I was young.
