Lisa Chaska
$15 per hour for 1 child

My name is Lisa and I'm approaching my senior year at UMD. I study biochemistry and potentially want to work in the chemistry and/or neuroscience field. When I was in high school, I worked at Color Me Mine and I had to run many children's birthday parties there. I'd like more experience in babysitting and working with kids because it would open my perspective about working with different age groups related to my future career. I've had cats and dogs throughout my life so I'm comfortable with pets. I've gotten into baking and I know how to make basic meals. I also have a basic life support (BLS) certification and planning to get my advanced life support (ALS) certification soon. If you need someone to step in during a night out or to help out during a busy schedule, let me know!

Hiya! I'm currently in college for Elementary Education, and with my 6 years of experience babysitting, tutoring, and working in a Montessori daycare center, I know that childcare is where I am meant to be. I am certified in Adult, Child, and Infant CPR and First Aid. I have experience with all ages 4mo-15yrs, and while littles are my favorite, I love spending time with kids of all ages! I am happy to help care for pets, from cats to dogs to hamsters or fish, and adore cooking/meal prep. When I'm not working, I love to spend my time outdoors, whether that's swimming with my little sister, exploring the woods with friends, or biking to town, and I could also talk your ear off about ECE pedagogy! Can't wait to meet you (:

Hi! I’m a reliable, calm, and experienced caregiver with a background in working with kids and supporting families. I’m also a mom, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust in your home. I have experience with school-age children and teens, and I’m especially strong with homework help, organization, and keeping kids on track in a positive, low-stress way. I’m patient, engaging, and good at explaining things in a way kids actually understand. I’m happy to help with light household tasks, errands, and keeping things running smoothly while you’re busy. I also enjoy being active with kids, whether that’s getting outside, doing creative activities, or just making sure they feel comfortable and supported. Families would describe me as dependable, easy to communicate with, and someone who genuinely cares. I’m flexible and available for last-minute or occasional needs as well.

Hi! I'm Hannah, a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) who genuinely loves spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun. I believe the best babysitters do more than keep children occupied, they create experiences. Whether we're making art projects, exploring nature, building forts, reading stories, playing imaginative games, or inventing our own backyard adventures, I love finding creative ways to keep kids engaged, active, and smiling. Building strong rapport with children comes naturally to me, and my professional background has given me extensive experience connecting with kids of all ages, personalities, and abilities. When you hire me, you're not getting a teenager parked on the couch scrolling TikTok while the TV babysits your child. You're getting a master's-trained Speech-Language Pathologist with years of experience working with children in educational, therapeutic, and recreational settings. I bring patience, creativity, reliability, and a genuine passion for helping kids feel confident, heard, and valued. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and enriching environment where children can be themselves, try new things, and have a great time while parents enjoy peace of mind.
