Hi, future families! 😊 New on this app! My name is Chloe, and I’m 21 years old. I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible person who would love the opportunity to help make your life a little easier—whether you need a babysitter, house sitter, or an extra helping hand! I have over 3 years of experience working as a Special Needs Paraeducator and even my own personal experience where my brother has severe autism. I’ve developed lots of patience, responsibility, and experience caring for children with different needs. I’m also a licensed CNA and am just one class away from starting my journey toward becoming a Registered Nurse! 🩺 I’m excited to build relationships with families, earn your trust, and gain more experience in babysitting and house sitting. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your children and home are in caring and responsible hands. ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and see how I can help! 😊
I have several years of experience caring for children, both through my family and professionally. I have cared for younger family members from a young age, and I worked for about a year with a child on the autism spectrum, assisting with meals, homework, daily routines, and stimulating activities. I have also provided after-school care for children ages 5–6, helping with homework, playing games, planning activities, and teaching Spanish. I am patient, responsible, caring, and enjoy creating a fun and comfortable environment for children. I am fluent in Spanish and currently study Human Development at UC Davis. I also enjoy swimming, hiking, and outdoor activities, and would be happy to plan walks and age-appropriate activities with the children I care for.
Hi! My name is Sophie, and I’m a junior at UC Davis studying English with minors in Education and Psychology. I’m an aspiring elementary school teacher and offer reliable, childcare, pet care, and household help. I have experience volunteering in both first- and third-grade classrooms, and I currently complete a 5-hour-per-week internship in a first-grade classroom at Pioneer Elementary School. I’ve taken courses in Human Growth and Development, Psychology, Language Development, and Introduction to Schools. I have a passion for working with and supporting young children. I also have experience caring for pets, including pet sitting for family members while they were away and caring for pets of my own. In addition to childcare and pet care, I’m happy to help with light household tasks, cleaning, errands, driving to appointments, and other day-to-day needs. I’m dependable and happy to tailor my help to each family’s needs!
Hi - My name is Adira and I'm currently a junior at UC Davis. I am majoring in psychology and minoring in education. I am offering child care. I love being a babysitter and helping out with kids extracurriculars. I also worked as a summer camp counselor where I had the opportunity to be the primary care-taker for campers ranging from 3rd to 10th grade. Through our counselor training, I have learned how to refocus attention, play engaging games, and help kids maintain routine. I also have a lot of experience settling in kids having difficulty falling asleep. I also love theater, and have volunteered for many youth shows, so getting to sing and dance with kids is my favorite! I am happy to aid with homework and study! I am also certified in Adult and Pediatric CPR/AED & First Aid.
I’m a patient, responsible, and caring person who genuinely loves spending time with children. I’m creative and enjoy doing arts and crafts, baking, cooking, and finding fun activities to keep kids engaged. I’m also very attentive and adaptable to each child’s individual personality, needs, and routines. Being a lifeguard and swim instructor taught me to prioritize safety and stay calm in unexpected situations, while my experience babysitting children of different ages, including children with special needs, has made me patient and understanding. I’m also the middle of three girls, so I’ve always enjoyed being around kids and understand the importance of being a supportive and dependable role model.
