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!
Hi, my name is Kyle and I am a 30 year old well experienced caretaker. I love working with children and dogs. I am allergic to cats. I’ve been a Respite, Habilitation, Attendant Care Provider since I was 19 working with Neural-Divergent and Neural-Typical Clients of all ages from 3 years old to 45 years old. I am CPR/First Aid Certified and have my Level 1 IVP Fingerprint Clearance card as well as prevention and support training and an Article 9 certification that are all current and up to date as of June of Last year 2025. I am currently in the process of getting my RBT Certification and furthering my education as a BCBA in ABA Therapy.
I’ve been teaching in grades 1-6 for the past 17 years. I have daily experience working with 25+ children. I am dependable and hardworking. I currently have two pitbull dogs but grew up mucking stalls for our horses, taking care of various types of birds, reptiles and fish. My mom is a senior who is on oxygen so I am familiar with the frequent doctor visits and needs of seniors. I am a full time teacher so I am currently looking to work during the summer months and extended holidays.
Hi! My name is McKenzi, and I’m a high school senior offering childcare and household services! I’ve babysat throughout high school and have experience caring for multiple children at once, including a baby, toddler, and elementary-aged child! For the past three summers, I’ve worked as a lifeguard and swim instructor teaching infants through 18-year-olds, and most recently coached kids on the Centennial Stingrays swim team. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a certified assistant teacher through my COOP and child development programs at my high school, and have classroom experience as an assistant teacher. I’m organized, alert, and dependable, and I’m happy to help with pets and light housekeeping. I’m also bubbly, creative, and love making kids feel safe, supported, and excited to learn.
I'm passionate about nurturing and caring for children, a passion that grew over my 6 years of volunteering, nannying and babysitting in childcare. The excitement on the children's faces and the trust their parents had in me solidified my desire to make a positive impact on the lives of children and their families. I am CPR certified & First Aid trained. I also have my fingerprint card! With 6 years of experience caring for children of various ages, I'm adept at creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for them to thrive. My patient and calm demeanor, coupled with my creativity and imagination, allows me to connect with children effortlessly. I believe in open communication and building strong relationships with parents, ensuring that I follow their preferred communication method and collaborate closely with them to address any concerns or issues that may arise. Whether it's engaging in outdoor activities, crafts, or exploring games that promote learning, I strive to make playtime both enjoyable and enriching for the children in my care.
