Madelyn $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents! My name is Madelyn, and I'm a freshman at Palm Beach Atlantic University. I moved to the area on August 14th and I'm excited to connect with families here! I've been babysitting consistently since I was 15 and have cared for kids ages 1 to 13. I'm mainly looking for date night or weekend care opportunities. If you'd like references, feel free to DM me-I'd be happy to share them! Since I have a bike for transportation, I'm hoping to find jobs local to me. A little about me: I'm studying Finance and Ministry, I love being outdoors, and I'll be competing as a track athlete at PBA this spring. Because of that commitment, parents should know that my schedule may sometimes be limited due to training and meets, but I always do my best to communicate clearly and plan ahead. I'm very outgoing, social, and responsible, and I'm also planning to get my CPR certification while living in West Palm Beach. I'd love to connect, so don't hesitate to reach out! I've always loved being around animals, and caring for them has always been something that brings me a lot of joy! While I'm a little allergic to cats, I'm happy to take allergy medication if needed so it doesn't get in the way of providing great care. I recently moved to West Palm Beach and have really been missing my dogs back home, which makes me even more excited for the chance to spend time with some furry friends here. Whether it's walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I'd love the opportunity to help out and give your pets lots of love and attention!

Kate $25 per hour for 1 child

I am an experienced nanny to infants, as well as a mother to three boys (two are now young adults, and the youngest is in high school). Our family has two rambunctious Labrador Retrievers and a kitty, so I am accustomed to a lively, chaotic environment full of kid and pet energy. I am nurturing, active, vigilant, and CPR-certified. Because I am an established private school educator in the local area, I have been vetted through background checks beyond the norm. I genuinely enjoy children and possess immense patience. Because of my life experience and maturity, I am highly attentive and communicative and will give the individuals in my care my complete attention. Lastly, I am kind and sensitive to the emotional needs of others. I miss my crazy-busy mothering days and would like to support parents and caregivers in a way that provides them peace of mind and reassurance.
