"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."

Madyson $16 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Madyson. I'm a current junior at Spelman College. I am offering childcare and petcare. I've worked with children ages 1 - 9 in a professional and familial capacity since I was 16 years old. My responsibilities included maintaining safety, facilitating activities, and preparing healthy meals. I also have experience taking care of dogs and cats (I currently live with a cat.) I've had 2 yorkies throughout my life.
sophia $14 per hour for 1 child
Hey! I’m a 20 year old creative writing student at GSU. I have a younger sister (8 years younger) who taught me a lot about childcare, fun, and selflessness. I’ve babysat for my neighbors in the past and would like to also tutor. I’m vaccinated with Pfizer! In addition to babysitting and tutoring, I can house sit, help out with chores, cook, etc. Just ask me. I love reading, drawing, painting, anything creative. I also speak French fluently and can definitely help with homework. I’m a bit of a nerd at heart. I don’t currently have a car, though I do have a license.
