Hi, my name is Emily. I’m a mom of two little ones and looking for a way to bring in some extra income for my family by doing something I genuinely love — taking care of kids. I have over 15 years of childcare experience, including working with: • Newborns through middle schoolers • Twins • Children with disabilities • Sick children • Potty training • School drop-off and pick-up routines • Large groups of kids I grew up caring for my infant siblings, led children’s Sunday school, and have worked as a daycare leader for large groups of children. I also ran the Kids Club program at Chick-fil-A for two years, where I was also a marketing assistant. I’ve been a junior high youth leader for 5 years, worked as a nanny for over two years, and have been babysitting since I was 12. I’m CPR certified, have my own transportation, and love doing fun activities and playing games that keep kids happy and engaged. Thank you so much for considering me to care for your little ones!
Compassionate, organized, empathetic, passionate, self-motivated, personable, detail-oriented I have seven years of experience as a Special Education Paraprofessional and hold an AA in Psychology.
Hello my name is Vania, I am a bilingual high school senior with experience in early childhood education. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and I currently work at a tutoring center for kids. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I love working with kids. I’m good at arts and crafts as well as playing educational games with young children. I am able to do any household tasks that need to be completed and have no allergies to any animals so I’m happy to work with any pets you may have.
My name is Barbi and I’m from Montana but I’m now living in the Phoenix area to be near and help my ailing father. I have homeschooled and raised 5 children. I love spending time with my grandchildren but they are 1500 miles away so I thought that helping out Arizona families would be good for my heart and a way to encourage and support parents as they do the most important job in the world raising their beloved kiddos! I am comfortable with all animals including farm animals and also willing to help out with household tasks or anything that would lessen the load for busy parents. My primary focus will always be the children. I love hands on learning so if it’s ok with parents I will include children in age appropriate tasks like cooking, animal care, household tasks as well as spend time reading, coloring, creative play, crafts, games, outside play, walks and anything that will expand the children’s imagination, encourage growth and fill their hearts with a love for life!
As a versatile and trustworthy caregiver, I have experience as a babysitter, live-in caregiver, tutor, pet sitter, and housecleaner. Currently, I work part-time at a Title I school as a tutor/teacher assistant. I pride myself on being professional, caring, and adaptable, with a broad skill set that allows me to handle various responsibilities. From child and pet care to household tasks, I can do it all with dedication and attention to detail, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for those in my care. My flexible availability allows me to meet diverse needs efficiently.
