Aloha! 😊 I’m Geeneave, but I usually go by GG. I am 31 years old and have had many years of experience as a sitter/nanny since I was 16 years old—from newborns to teenagers for family, friends, neighbors, and agencies. I’m also a mommy to a beautiful 6 year old gal! ✨ I have many different hobbies of indoor and outdoor activities. I absolutely enjoy doing makeup and trying different foods, arts & crafts, gardening, playing volleyball, singing & dancing, and traveling. My rates are flexible—starts at $23/hr per child and an extra $1/hr for each additional child. I have my own policy of a 2-hour minimum for a flat rate of $55. As for child transportation, it will be an additional 0.65 cents per mile if driven in my car. If you have to cancel, please give me a 24-hour notice or there will be a $25 cancellation fee. I understand things happen, so the 1st cancellation booking will be waived. P.S. I am vaccinated and can provide proof. Mahalo for taking the time to read about me! ♡ *Flexible w/ rate & availability posted*

Hello! My name is Grace, I just recently graduated from Colorado State University and am currently pursuing an education to get my Esthetician license. I am looking for some extra work, and what better way to spend my time doing something I love! I have been surrounded by children my whole life, and have been babysitting since I was just 15 years old. From neighbors to family members, and family friends I have watched children ranging from all ages. I am very reliable and have a safe vehicle if driving is needed. I hope to meet you and start helping you enjoy the little moments without having to worry about the kiddos being taken care of!
