Hi! My name is Nicole. I am a a college student looking for occasional/one time babysitting jobs. I started caring for children at age 12 so I have almost 7 years of experience under my belt. I have also worked at nursing homes since age 14 and have experience with the mentally impaired. I’ve cared for children anywhere from ages 1-13. I can do anything from diaper changes to playing catch in the yard but arts and crafts is my specialty. Currently, I work at a school with fourth and fifth graders where I am directly responsible for their safety. I also nanny a 7 and a 9 year old. Please consider me :)
I am a mother of two teenagers and I have been an elementary school counselor for over 20 years. I have experience with newborns and infants. I have post-partum doula training; I completed the training in 2020 but never got certified due to the pandemic. In my professional role, I have led social skills groups and provided individual counseling for children K-5th grade, including both neurotypical and neurodivergent students. My favorite part of the school day is greeting my students in the morning when they arrive at school! I was a Girl Scout leader for 6 years and I am a regular religious education teacher at my Unitarian Universalist church. I love board games, reading, crafts, and playing outside with kids. I know how to juggle and I can still sing all of the fun Girl Scout songs from my youth. I may be a little older than your kids' typical teenage babysitters, but I promise we'll have fun together! I am also available for pet care and for household errands. With my two teens heading to college soon, I am looking to make a little extra money by doing what I love - spending time with children and helping families! I look forward to hearing from you soon.
As a compassionate caregiver, I provide nurturing support and companionship to both children and seniors. With a genuine dedication to enhancing their well-being, I offer attentive care, fostering a safe and enriching environment tailored to their unique needs. From facilitating activities that promote growth and development to offering assistance with daily tasks, I prioritise comfort happiness and dignity of those under my care. I am a former Au Pair with lots of child care experience who also majored in Early childhood Development.
“Sophie was lovely and she also cleaned our kitchen while kids slept which was so amazing to come home to!”
Hello! My name is Helen, and I am an experienced babysitter, tutor, and teacher. I recently passed the bar exam and am looking to pick up some occasional work during my full-time job search. I love the outdoors and engaging children in imaginative play and prefer to minimize screen time when possible. I like helping kids create, learn, and have fun in ways that build their independence and self-esteem, while maintaining a safe and supportive environment. I look forward to working with you and your child(ren)!
“Helen was professional and communicated well, on time, and the kids loved her.”
Hi families! I’m a former au pair and professional nanny of 4 years. I have 900+ verified hours as a volunteer at a daycare in South Africa. I’m a quick learner and can easily adapt to new routines and responsibilities. I do have a valid driver’s license with driving experience in all weather conditions and different car types. I am comfortable around small dogs and friendly cats. I am comfortable with light house cleaning(light sweeping, dishes, light laundry, tidying up) and can assist with homework. I am a bit silly and fun but always within reason. If needed I can whip up quick meals too!
