Find a last-minute babysitter in Litchfield Park, AZ

Hello my name is Yashaley i’m currently in my first year of college. I am offering pet services. I am mostly used to taking care of smaller to medium sized dogs, but I do have some experience with some of the bigger breeds as well as any cats. I can walk, play, feed and pick up after them and do any basic house work cleaning.

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!

I’m a dependable, patient, and caring person who genuinely enjoys helping others. I understand how important it is for families to have someone they can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m attentive, responsible, and respectful of each family’s routines, expectations, and home. I’m also easygoing and approachable, while knowing when children need structure, patience, or extra attention. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and positive environment where children feel cared for and parents can feel confident that their family is in good hands.

Coming from an education background, I have worked with children/adolescents from the ages of 10 to 17 for over 8 years! I love working with children, encouraging confidence and curiosity is my fortè! I am a strong believer in reading to kids all the time, even during summer break!

I have tutored (in math) and babysat children for almost 10 years. I babysat my own siblings and my neighbors' children as well. (I am CPR trained, have a car, and I love animals!)
