Shatyra Little Rock
$13 per hour for 1 child

My name is Shatyra but my preferred name is “Tyra” im a freshman in college and the experience i have with children is having younger sister i have helped take care of up to the age of five. This personal experience combined with me having my NURSING ASSISTANT certificate and CPR certification makes me a great fit to be the perfect caregiver you will need for your little ones! I do plan on taking this further and soon plan to be a pediatric nurse and i feel as if this opportunity would help me pursue my future goals!

Alexis Little Rock
$13 per hour for 1 child

I’m Alexis but everyone calls me Lexi, I’ve been a certified babysitter since I was 13, I’m 18 now. I’ve been CPR certified, and am working on my infant certification. I have a basic understanding of Spanish, and German. I do immense research on child psychology, and behavior, and multiple types of parenting techniques. I’ve worked with children of all ages infants to preteens. Even handle multiple at once, which I actually found entertaining. I’m good with emotional outbursts, meltdowns and find myself to be a calm, grounded person. I love running, and outdoor fun, as well as board games and arts. Like singing, drawing, and dancing. I graduated early, so I am very good at tutoring, and homework. I’m an excellent cook, and fairly good baker. I also have a spotless driving record. I believe that structure and rules are important, but a fair amount of play is also necessary for childhood development and growth.

Will Little Rock
$15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Will and I'm a librarian here in town and a student at UALR. I'm offering evening and weekend childcare, senior care and petcare! I have experience working with a wide variety of ages, and have worked as a summer camp counselor for ages 6-16. I can cook, clean, run errands and drive to or pick up from classes depending on my availability. I am also comfortable working with seniors, and am happy to take them on excursions or just chit chat about their lives. I am happy to work with pets, but am allergic to cats (and horses).
