From babysitting my siblings and cousins as a kid to raising my own toddler now, I've spent most of my life looking after children. I'm naturally good with kids, including those with autism or learning disabilities, and I know how to stay calm and patient in any situation. I'm certified in CPR and First Aid, and thanks to growing up with five dogs and several cats, I'm also comfortable giving medications and training puppies with gentle, consistent methods.
Hi my name is Dahlia, I have my high school diploma and my AA in Early Childhood Education with a transfer to SCI.I have worked with children since I was in high school, doing babysitting jobs for families or friends. Currently, I work in the ABA field.I have fun art activities for children such as painting or scrapbooking, or drawing.I have 4 cats and 1 dog. Please note I’m scared of small dogs, but if you introduce the dog to me while you are there for a short bit, I’ll be ok. I'm a very outgoing and goofy person who loves to find different things to do. I also knit and draw as a hobby.The reason I’ll be a great babysitter for your kids is due to the education I have and my current job as a RBT for 2 years! I’m also just very playful and have fun activities.I played badminton for college and high school. I can clean and cook while also making sure your kids are safe and well!
Hi! My name is Darinna, I’m 19 and currently working as a Behavioral Technician with children in a clinical setting. I have several years of babysitting experience with kids of all ages, including children with autism and other special needs. Parents describe me as patient, reliable, and creative — I love keeping kids engaged with play, learning, and activities (instead of just screen time). Safety is always my top priority: I’m CPR/First Aid trained, have a clean driving record, and I’m comfortable with meal prep, light tidying, and bedtime routines.
