"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Lyndsey $20 per hour for 1 child
Trusting someone to babysit your kids can feel frightening! Picking the right sitter to watch your kids is very important. With many years experience, I am a great babysitter because I love to engage with kids and always keep them safe. My heart fills with joy when I’m around kids. At my previous part-time job, I worked with kids ages 3 mo. - 11 years old in the child center. I have most of my experience with ages 14 mo. - six years old. I have babysat as young as eight months to as old as twelve. I love to draw, play games, do puzzles, and all sorts of fun interactive activities to keep your kids entertained! I also have my certification in first aid, as well as CPR/AED. With a bachelors degree in psychology, and masters degree in teaching, I’m going into my 5th year of teaching. I currently teach 2nd grade, but I’ve also taught kindergarten, EIP, and have experience teaching ESOL. I can’t wait to get to know you and your family!

I’m a kind, creative, and patient caregiver who loves engaging children in fun, hands-on activities rather than screen time. I have experience caring for kids of various ages, including helping with homework, arts & crafts, outdoor play, and light meal prep. I’m reliable, energetic, and focused on creating a safe and positive environment for children to learn and grow.
