Hi! I’m a responsible and caring college student with experience taking care of children of different ages, including my younger siblings and nephews. I’m patient, reliable, and love keeping kids engaged with fun, safe activities. I’m also comfortable helping with light housekeeping, meals, and bedtime routines. I take pride in being dependable and creating a safe, positive environment for every child I care for.

Cynthia $25 per hour for 1 child

For the past three years, I've had the joy of caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I'm comfortable caring for up to four children at a time. I've worked in group homes, shelters and family homes. I’ve worked with children who have medical diagnosis and developmental delays. I am patient, calm, and structured. I'm happy to prepare meals, do housekeeping or run errands. I am very active and enjoy outdoor activities! I am certified in First Aid and CPR. I spent two years as an emergency medical technician and am very comfortable with tending to wounds, injuries or springing into action when needed. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I am bilingual (Spanish/English).

Makenna $16 per hour for 1 child

I have formal hands-on experience working with young children as a Student teacher at the Little Lions Preschool early childhood elective program, where I assisted teachers with daily routines, supervised activities, and kept the space organized and safe. I’ve also spent multiple summers volunteering for Vacation Bible School leading group activities. My personal babysitting experience comes from my young cousins, ranging from infants to middle schoolers.
