I have a bachelor’s degree in International Affairs, and I’ve been babysitting for the past 3 years. I currently babysit and have experience caring for children of different ages, and I really enjoy keeping them engaged through activities, walks, games, and just having fun together. I love caregiving because I genuinely enjoy being around kids and being someone they can feel comfortable and safe with. A little something about me: I’m a big soccer fan, love being outdoors, and I’m always up for a fun activity or adventure!
Hello! My name is Hulya, and I am a caring, responsible, and dependable person who enjoys spending time with children. I am a former dentist, which has given me strong skills in patience, communication, attention to detail, and maintaining a safe and healthy environment. Throughout my life, I have had experience caring for children, starting with my younger brother. I helped take care of him when he was a baby and continued to support and look after him as he grew older. This experience taught me the importance of responsibility, empathy, and creating a nurturing atmosphere. Since moving to the United States, I have also been doing occasional babysitting for families in my community. Through these experiences, I have cared for children of different ages, helping with playtime, meals, homework, bedtime routines, and ensuring they feel comfortable and secure while their parents are away. I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to provide attentive, patient, and individualized care. My goal is to create a positive, safe, and engaging environment where children can have fun, learn, and feel supported. I would be honored to help your family and provide reliable childcare you can trust.
Safety is ALWAYS my first priority. My passion lies in providing dependable support to families and your loved ones. I've had the privilege of working with infants to seniors over the past years. I hold a college degree and maintain a current CPR/First Aid certification. Additionally, I am resourceful, creative and calm under pressure, with the ability to think on my feet when challenges arise. A good sense of humor is an approach I use to help navigate various situations with ease. I’m more than happy to help with light housekeeping, driving children to and from school, activities, etc. (I have a safe SUV that holds 2 car seats easily). I'm also very flexible with yours/my schedule. I work hard and always have a smile on my face 😊
Hello! My name is Carly, and I’m an 18-year-old high school senior graduating in 2026. I’m looking to gain more babysitting experience as I prepare to pursue a nanny career this summer. I’ve been around children my entire life. I come from a big family and helped care for my younger cousins from a young age. I also helped care for my best friend Ned for four years, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness early on. Growing up in after-school programs further helped me learn how to interact with children of all ages, play fairly, and understand right from wrong. Since age 16, I’ve worked in restaurants, including Shake Shack and currently as a Starbucks barista. These roles strengthened my communication skills, punctuality, honesty, and cleanliness. I interact with children daily and genuinely enjoy helping them. Kids naturally gravitate toward me, and I love supporting families. I’m hardworking, reliable, and ready to adapt to your family’s needs. While I’m not currently CPR/First Aid certified, I have hands-on experience and am happy to get certified if required. Thank you for your time and consideration!
Hello, I'm Shannan, an artistpreneuer, here to help you relieve any scheduling pressure. I was a reading interventionist for 5 years for Marietta School System in Atlanta. I've also remotely tutored elementary age students with Reading Partners LA . If your child needs help reading, I'd love to get them on their reading level. During my busy season, I facilitate youth workshops for churches, schools and youth programs to show them the importance of being a servant leader. I was a caretaker for about 2 years as a companion for Seniors doing private duty care. My heart is soft for elders and children. Kindness is what I lead with so I'm dependable and patient. I am a humble servant leader. Careful. I value respect. Transparency, cleanliness, honesty and integrity are traits of my "ideal" clients' family. While I don't have any children of my own, I love the 13 neices and nephews I've been blessed with. Your loved one will be in good hands with me. I love music and marketing. Occasionally, I produce poetry events and I like watching documentaries on PBS. Im a life learner. I love the Lord and I work for him. Hoping to hear from you soon! Shannan
