"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."

Noelia $10 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Noelia, and I’m a bubbly, patient, and caring babysitter with several years of childcare experience. I have experience working in childcare facilities at gyms as well as babysitting children of various ages. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment while making sure each child’s individual needs and routines are respected. I’m reliable, flexible, and happy to accommodate any specific needs your family may have. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and care for your little ones!
Mary-Ruby $23 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Ruby! I work in finance full-time, but babysitting is something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve always loved being around children and have experience with babies, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m patient, reliable, and naturally caring, and I love getting to know each child’s personality and making them feel comfortable and happy!

Tenishia $18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Smyrna, GA
Hello! I sm Tenishia. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching infants, toddlers, and older kids since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, and tutoring.
Sheila $20 per hour for 1 child
Hello there! My name is Sheila. I’m a middle-aged spinster auntie getting back into the babysitting game. I work a part-time remote job with very flexible hours and I’m looking for some equally flexible income on the side. Because of this, I’m not looking for part-time or full-time positions. But if you’ve got a date night, a day event, or a sick kid and need coverage, I’m your gal! I’m mature enough to handle difficult situations but silly enough to get down on the floor and play right alongside your kids. I’m an experienced storyteller, and I can whip up an interactive bedtime story on the spot. I have a shiny, red, reliable car to get me to your place and back and for school pick-ups as needed. Let me know what your needs are and let’s see how we can work together. :)
