Samantha $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Samantha. I am a after-school and summer camp counselor. I have been working in this position for a year. I am very patient and friendly. I enjoy engaging children through outdoor sports, physical games, and educational activities that spark curiosity. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide swimming supervision to keep your little ones safe in the water. I am also comfortable with pets and love helping with creative crafts. I prioritize your preferences by following your household rules and communicating through your chosen method. I am also DCF and CPR certified. I love working with kids and plan on continuing after college.

Sarah $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated caregiver with a Bachelors Degree in Exceptional Student Education with endorsements in Autism, English Language Learners and Reading. I have experience caring for children from infancy to age 12 as well as providing loving care for seniors and pets. As a former caregiver for my grandmother, I understand importance of patience, companionship and assisting with daily needs. I am also a pet owner and I am comfortable tending to dogs and other animals with care and responsibility. Being a mother to a two year old, I am very skilled at multi-tasking, nurturing, and creating a safe, engaging environment. I was previously a kindergarten teacher to Students with Autism in a cluster class before I stayed home as a mother. Since I am a stay at home mom, I work around when my mom is able to watch my daughter. I can always bring her along with me if you'd prefer the added bonus of a sweet and energetic 2 year old to make my availability more flexible. Whether caring for children, seniors, or pets, I bring attentiveness and reliability to every role.

Yone $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi!! I’m a super easygoing, reliable sitter who genuinely loves being around kids. I'm born and raised in Brazil and I started working as an as an au pair in the USA from 2[removed], then nannied for a couple more years, and have been babysitting on and off ever since. I’ve pretty much done it all with kiddos from newborns up to 10 years old. I’m big on keeping things fun but structured, I love to bake or cook with the kids (I allow them to help based on how old they are), going to the playground, setting up playdates, or just hanging out and getting creative at home. I’m also very comfortable with routines like school pick-up and drop-ff, meals, bath time, and bedtime (and keeping things running smoothly while you’re out). I'm also a great swimmer. I’ve always had really great relationships with the families I’ve worked with and try to be someone both parents and kids feel totally comfortable with. I’m also graduating with my Bachelor’s in Psychology from NSU this May 2026 (yay!) and plan to continue into a Master’s in Clinical Psychology, so I bring a lot of patience and understanding into how I work with kids. Would love to help out your family 🤍
