I started babysitting when I was 12 and have continued to throughout my life. I’m a mother of two boys, 22 and 20 and we had a dog and multiple cats along the way. I worked at gym daycares when the kids were little as well as traded babysitting with friends with kids. I myself was raised with a younger sister and many animals including a pony, dogs, cats, fish, birds, a bunny, turtles and rats. I spent my summers at our families ranch in Northern California which has horses, cows, dogs, cats, peacocks, turkeys and pheasants. All in all I’ve had the joy of enjoying and taking care of many children and animals through the years and look forward to doing the same with yours.
About me: I am a mom and have been babysitting since I was twelve years old. I am highly creative and organized and I enjoy arts and crafts, board games, playing dress up, tea parties, building lego sets, slime, riding bikes, baking, bedtime stories, etc….. I think it is important to provide children with a fun, safe, active, and enriched environment. I am enthusiastic, fun, patient, and responsible and I provide child care for a lot of date nights, families that are here on vacation, weddings, and single parents that just need some regular time for themselves. I can also provide overnight or weekend care once I get to know your children, if you need time away. I look forward to meeting you and your children soon!

Hello! My name is Nicole and I absolutely adore children and the elderly. I have been babysitting now for the last few years and have lots of experience caring for my grandmother. I love animals and have 5 pets of my own! I am all for Christian values in a household and will support any rules, education, & activities you choose to implement in your children’s upbringing. I live an active lifestyle and would enjoy playing sports, going on walks, reading, and doing educational activities if needed. I have some veterinary experience as well, which will help with pets. I also have my cosmetology license, so I’m able to maintain haircuts as well. With a very open and flexible schedule, I just ask for no Sunday mornings as I’ll be in church. If you choose to hire me, I promise to uphold strong Christian values, give attention to detail, demonstrate multitasking & prioritization skills, and give lots of enthusiasm and sensitivity. I believe that being a good listener, having patience, and showing respect to children goes a long way when it comes to communication & discipline. I have a very caring and nurturing heart. I appreciate your consideration and the opportunity to assist your family. (Payment up front required for first time, and additional $5-20 for gas & drive time depending on distance.)
Hi! My name is Maria, I’m 21 years old and I’m from Brazil 🇧🇷. I’ve been working as a nanny since I was 16, and most of my experience is with newborns and toddlers. In the past two years, I’ve cared for two newborn families, staying with each of them for a full year. I’m passionate about helping little ones grow, learn, and feel safe. I’m very patient, organized, and always bring positive energy to my work. Parents describe me as responsible, caring, and easy to trust. Certifications & Skills: • CPR certified • Certified in newborn care • Sleep & nap training • Starting solids / baby-led weaning (BLW) • Early baby sign language • Infant colic relief massage • Developmental activities for newborns, babies, and toddlers I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Outside of childcare, I love being outdoors, playing with kids or dogs, having long conversations, and traveling — exploring new places is one of my favorite things! Available for full-time or occasional babysitting, with a flexible schedule and open to travel with families. Looking forward to meeting a wonderful family to work with 💛
My goal as a babysitter is to provide a safe, caring, and playful environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and love the energy, curiosity, and joy they bring to everyday life. I have cared for and tutored children for much of my life. Growing up with triplet siblings gave me plenty of hands-on experience with toddlers, young children, and preteens, and taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable when caring for multiple children at once. I am comfortable preparing meals, changing diapers, helping with potty training, assisting with homework, keeping children entertained, and maintaining their routines. I am also happy to help with light household tasks or errands when needed. I also have experience volunteering and working with children through YMCA Camp Shaver in Jemez Springs, New Mexico, where I participated in a two-year leadership and counselor-in-training program. I am currently completing clinical training in the Mayo Clinic echocardiography program and am looking for part-time childcare opportunities while I finish my program. I am responsible, dependable, and excited to get back into childcare and get to know some wonderful families! Thank you for considering me for your childcare needs! :)
