Hello My name is Mirella I’m a Regional Program Manager with 5+ years experience working with youth babysitting, nannying and overseeing and managing programs for organizations like boys and girls club and sheriffs activities league. I formally played college softball and love working with kids while I’m not working my full time job. I stopped babysitting for a bit but back open and ready to work with your family!! Please let me know if you have any questions.
I'm a caring and creative caregiver with hands-on experience as a preschool teacher, where I worked with children ages 2-5 for a full school year. In the classroom, I have worked with children with neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism. I have over 6 months of babysitting/nannying experience working with 8-month-olds to 10-year-olds. In addition, I am an eldest daughter who has basically raised my younger sisters, who are now in their late teens, so I technically have years of experience with up to 17-year-olds. I have an associate's degree in Child and Adolescent Development, giving me a strong understanding of developmental stages and age-appropriate care. I am also First-Aid & CPR-certified and fully vaccinated. My top strengths include planning engaging activities, encouraging imaginative play, and supporting children's growth in a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. I love helping kids learn, explore, and feel confident being themselves!
Hi! I’m Lauryn. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids and getting to know their individual personalities. I spent 5 years in child care as a preschool teacher at Action Day Schools, a babysitter for multiple families, and a substitute teacher with Child Care Careers. I can keep kids engaged with games, crafts, creative activities, trips to the park, reading, or simply letting them lead the fun. I’m also happy to help with homework, meals and snacks, bedtime routines, tidying up after activities, and whatever else helps make your evening easier. I am comfortable taking care of children with special needs and have been active in the autism community my whole life as my older brother is autistic. Also, I used to volunteer for 4 years in high school at the local SPCA and am comfortable with any pets you may have :) As a sitter, my priority is making sure your children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to respect the varying routines and parenting styles of any family. I’ll always keep you updated and make sure you feel confident that your little ones are in good hands :) I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be a helping hand when you need it! 💕

“This was the second time we booked Jackie and she’s just wonderful. Calm, caring, quick to respond to text messages, and she even did the dishes — which was absolutely not required, but very much appreciated. Thank you!”
