I am a 4th year Optometry Student and Nova Southeastern University. I have some experience children more so from a clinical optometry and vision therapy standpoint. I believe this to be a unique skill set that allows me to more observant of your child. I am CPR certified as it is required for my profession. I have five younger cousins that I’ve had the privilege to watch and help take care over the years. I have a little bit of experience as a caretaker as I was briefly my grandmother’s caretaker up until her passing. My boyfriend and I have a dog so I’m comfortable taking care and being around them. I believe I would describe myself as dedicated and passionate. With children, I can be very fun but I also know when it is necessary to be serious.

I have over a decade of experience caring for children from birth through young adults. I have virtually infinite patience, am attentive, interactive, and always do my best to exceed the expectations of the families I work with. I am a non-smoker, have reliable transportation, and am frequently available for evening, weekend, and overnight care on short notice. Prior to attending college and pursuing my bachelor's degree in business administration, I was contemplating a career in education, completed training to become a preschool teacher, and began babysitting for several local families. Though I am now in the information technology field full-time I continue to provide childcare services as my schedule allows. I specialize in last minute care, families visiting the area, date nights, one time, and occasional evening and weekend care needs and always welcome creative assignments. I'm fine with caring for mildly ill children and would be willing to discuss other specialty situations such as working with special needs children and traveling with children on a case by case basis. I enjoy everything from art projects and bedtime stories with a preschooler to subtly shadowing a teen who needs supervision while out of the house. I have a very mild-mannered personality, but enforce rules as necessary. I take safety seriously and have current certification in Infant/Child/Adult CPR and First Aid, as well as specialty training for water-based emergency situations and Epi-Pen administration. Examples of what I've been hired for include: *In-home care at child's home (day/evening/overnight/week-long) *Summer camp instructor (groups of 10+) *Day trips to theme parks and other area locations when parents didn't want to go or needed an extra pair of hands *House sitting and monitoring teens while parents were out of town *Chaperoning a teen to Germany for two weeks as she participated in a film project My rate is negotiable based upon the number of children I'm expected to care for, length of care, and what I'm expected to do while I'm with the children. I look forward to hearing from you to discuss details of your childcare needs!

Kyra $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Kyra! I am an aunt of 12 and have been a built in babysitter for the past six years. I am offering babysitting for ages 2 and up, animal care, as well as, house-sitting. Excluding family, I have been babysitting for a little over 2 years. My responsibilities have included driving to and from school, extracurricular activities, and tutoring. I love entertaining the littles with arts & crafts as well as any physical activities they enjoy or are recommended by parents. When babysitting school-age kids, I have found being younger has encouraged bonding. We always have fun, but you can still count on me to maintain the household rules. I can still have fun playing dress up, dolls or dinosaurs, as well as any sport activities! I am definitely a creative and outdoorsy person, so I try to avoid screens and inspire children’s imagination, artistic and/or athletic skills.
