Booked by 1 family in Floriston, CA

Hi there! :) My name is Maddie, I’m currently completing my nursing pre requisites online and am about to get my CNA license. I work part time at a coffee shop and am looking to fill my evenings during the weekdays, and I’m available all day Sundays and Mondays! I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I absolutely love working with kids, I have a younger brother who I’m inseparable with and grew up with lots of younger cousins. I’ve been babysitting on the side since I was 15 and have gained valuable experience with the 3-10y/o age range. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school or extracurriculars, tutoring, preparing meals, and arts and crafts. I also work as a household assistant and can clean, take dogs on walks, and run errands. I love all animals and would gladly housesit for a family with pets 🐾

Simona $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Simona; I’m from Argentina, but currently living in Tahoe on a J-1 visa. I work as a ski instructor, which has helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and clear communication especially with children. I’m a responsible, caring, and friendly babysitter who truly enjoys spending time with kids. I have experience caring for kids of different ages and always focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment. I’m reliable, attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and comfortable. I’d love the opportunity to help your family and be someone you can count on! ❤️
