Grace $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Grace and I’m currently in college, about to go into my fourth year. I am offering child care and occasional pet care services. I love babysitting, I’ve been doing it since about 15-16 years old. I’ve babysat ranges of newborn-12 years old, and some not the best well behaved children. I have also babysat up to 5 children at one time. I am CPR certified and I have reliable transportation. I have a cat so would be more than comfortable pet sitting cats. I have also pet sat 3 dogs at once on multiple occasions.
Tessa $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I'm Tessa and I am entering my second year studying education at Walsh University! I've been babysitting for about six years, and during that time I've had the opportunity to care for children of different ages. I really enjoy spending time with kids and doing my best to make sure they feel safe, supported, and have fun while they're with me. Babysitting has taught me to be patient, responsible, and dependable, and I always try to treat every family with the same care and respect that I would want for my own. I've also had a dog for most of my life, so I'm very comfortable caring for pets and understand the responsibility that comes with it. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company, I'm happy to help however I can! I'm also more than willing to help out with light household tasks if needed! Overall, I try to be someone families can trust by being reliable, caring, and always willing to learn. I know every family is different, and I do my best to adapt to their routines and rules and provide the best care I can.
