I genuinely enjoy babysitting because I’ve grown up around kids my whole life. As the oldest of 8, I’ve naturally taken on a leadership and caregiver role from a young age. I’m used to everything from helping with homework and making meals to calming tantrums and organizing fun activities. Babysitting feels natural to me—it’s something I’ve had years of hands-on experience with, and I’ve learned to be patient, responsible, and creative. What I enjoy most is the connection I build with kids. I like making them laugh, helping them learn new things, and being someone they can trust. Every child is different, and I like adapting to their unique personalities and needs. Babysitting isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I find meaningful and rewarding.

What makes me a good caregiver is having fun and building connections with the one’s I will supervise. I have two dogs and also a baby cousin that I would babysit A-LOT so i would say that i am experienced in caregiving for infants/toddlers, pets, and possibly seniors. I am also a very clean person so the family will not have to worry about coming back home to a mess. I chose this because I feel like I have a connection with babies I just love them, and also pets.

I’m a dependable and attentive pet and house sitter with experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small animals. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and administering basic medications. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while keeping their normal routines. I also take great care of homes by bringing in mail, watering plants, light cleaning, and ensuring everything stays secure and well maintained while you’re away.

Hi!! My name is Paris and I’m a School Psychologist during the school year and have some availability during summer break. My passion Is working with youth and helping them learn in a way that meets their individual needs! I've been a nanny for children from infancy to teenage years. I have also tutored in multiple subjects. I decided to get back into nannying for summer vacations since I do not work during the summer months.

Paris is wonderful! She cared for my 1 year old daughter for a few hours and did an excellent job. She arrived early and immediately engaged my daughter and my daughter didn’t even realize I was leaving (I drove away watching my daughter laugh and giggle :-) Paris is exactly what I look for in a sitter; she’s reliable, punctual and very kind and caring! I will not hesitate to hire her again!
