"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

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!

My goal is to create a safe and engaging space for every child I work with.
